I am very happy with my machine. The coffee is excellent, very machine easy to use. Coffee is very quick to prepare, even need to insert a capsule! (I had a Nespresso before, and although the Saeco is even easier to use than the Nespresso! Just press on the little magic button and perfect coffee comes out). Only minor drawbacks: You have to choose the coffee and grounds (which is adjustable) to really enjoy coffee. In addition after having put a new coffee and set the grind, we must sacrifice a few coffees before the machine adjusts perfectly to the new coffee. Also you often make small manipulations (back water, because the machine consumes much, remove the mark, put the coffee). These operations are normal but it should be done frequently (at least every 7 cafés ...). Fortunately they are very easy and quick to do. And here's the best part: The economy! Huge. After precise calculation for 2 months of use, and buying very good coffee in a coffee roaster, coffee cost me about 10 cents. For as good as the coffee in a bar, definitely worth the investment!
