Now we come to the point times. Back when I had acquired the coffee machine, it cost 85, - Euro. So far so good, or so bad. This can be seen as you want.
I start with the good things best at.
The machine is externally very high quality and feels like that. The filter area so the casing is made of stainless steel around it as well as the area below the heating plate.
The pot itself and also the swiveling and removable coffee filter to the outside also make a good impression.
The mean greater power button is surrounded by an illuminated ring. Illuminates white when the brewing process is running, after then green.
Furthermore it has the machine a "Aroma button" and a key to the descaler program to start. The decalcification is automatically recommended by the coffee machine, anyway a certain number of operating hours is exceeded. You then have to descale Although not immediately, but you should do it in the near future.
Neither positive nor negative, I rate this time the aroma button, because a real difference I can not notice, except that the brewing process then almost three times as long as necessary as before. Ok maybe you need half a spoon of less coffee, when a full can with Aroma button brews, but that was about it.
As a neutral I rate times the shutdown of the machine when the brewing process is over half an hour. The aim is to not annoy customers, but this is connected with an EU standard, stating that the machine must switch off keep warm after a half an hour. The I rate therefore also not for the manufacturers can not, because it must be so. Personally, I find that although not so great.
The whole reads but so far very good right?
Well then we come to the times not so good things.
Because where to place the coffee filter, so the funnel in the drinsteckt the filter, logically has a conical shape But what is better resolved in other machines that at the lower end of the funnel collar is a turn which collects the condensation. This is completely absent here. Swings to the filter holder to the side and remove the filter with the carrying handle from the holder, then the condensate present in the hopper runs simply out on the kitchen table, cabinet, countertop or wherever is the machine. And not just too little. So you should have nothing to do nearby.
The top of the machine, above the coffee filter is only looking chromed plastic.
The water tank is removable while, but if you leave him in there wants to fill the tank with the jug, a problem one has really how much cups of water now actually in the tank there are. The marks are stamped into the plastic only, but not in contrasting colors. Even the tank is very dark, the little light penetrates to it can be read. Now you could just say, I take the marks of the glass jug to help. All well and good, but unfortunately the markings on the pot are quite different from those in the tank. So as if they do not belong together. Very unfortunate.
Let's talk about cooking plate or hotplate. Unfortunately, this is not made of stainless steel. Therefore, it is painted with black color. Unfortunately, this has the disadvantage that at the latest after six months, small bubbles begin to form, spall to finally start the paint. The rusting is there then not far off, I need not mention here.
The rust is also favored by the the drip nor delivers what it promises, namely the water. I would say that is Fifty / Fifty, for that matter. Times it does not and sometimes it just drips. Is somehow a matter of luck.
So that I'm already at the end of my review arrived. I have a heavy heart awarded three stars. Even though my "WMF Lono" Now after a year and adopted a month. You can not turn back. Power indicator is normal, but the brewing process simply will not boot and she goes after 25-30 seconds simply back out. Very sad the whole. For the price I would have liked a little longer with the "Lono" rumgeärgert.
In my opinion, a coffeemaker for the price should have better. Because actually committed the very name for WMF.
Still, I think I have given a very fair assessment of the coffee. If they do it in the review and if they should evaluate them. Because I think it is all helpful. Thank you for your attention!
