  This review is about the colour: Black

  The price-quality ratio is very good. I don't know if it will present any problems because I have had it for a short time.

  It is a beautiful machine that decorates the kitchen, but that's about it. The espresso coffee that I usually drink is not good and there is more foam than coffee in the cup. I do not recommend it.

  I have had it for several months and I bought it for work... I use it daily and I am writing this review to help others not waste their money.
  1. In terms of design, it is ultimately the only thing that is worth it (if you just want to look at it... because when it comes to coffee...)
  2. It does not have an automatic coffee flow stop (if you forget, you will flood... and it has happened to me)
  3. From the first day, the button that you press to start the coffee gets stuck
  4. The same button does not seem to have a difference when it is pressed or not, so when the green readiness light does not turn on, you don't know if it is pressed or not (I have had situations where I plugged it in with the button pressed (which is not visible as I mentioned before) and the water starts running.)
  5. As for the quality of the coffee, we won't even discuss it... Below average... It does not create any "crema" at all, but the coffee comes out like foam... Imagine that 1/4 of the amount it will give you is foam...
  6. As for frothed milk, let's not even mention it... It's a disaster...
  Overall, cheap construction with plastic and coffee holder. Prefer to spend more money on something better because here it will be wasted...

  If you find the right timing it needs, I make it in 22-23 seconds for a double shot, if you make the right press, the coffee it produces (and compared to other machines I had), is perfect! Just be careful not to exceed the temperature above 90,95 degrees, otherwise it will burn your coffee.

  This review is about the colour: Black

  Purchased on sale for 62 euros, I thought it was worth the risk. I tried it with 3 different types of coffee, and unfortunately in all cases the coffee came out burnt. I didn't have the opportunity to experiment with different grinds and roasts, etc., and I also believe that it should be able to make at least a decent cup of coffee with the coffee found in supermarkets. It is possible that I got a defective piece.

  This review is about the colour: Black

  Purchased 20 days ago for 65 euros on sale. I replaced an old izzy which had eaten its bread in comparison to this one and others that I have worked with in friendly homes, it is quite good. It is easy to handle and heats up quickly, plus it has an analog thermometer for flow control. The noise is normal and in no way bothersome, perhaps those who mention it have not worked with other machines in this price range that make a lot of noise. The build quality is normal for the category, a little trouble with water replenishment and the tube that takes water into the machine. Now, in terms of coffee production, we are talking about a 19 bar machine, so the first material plays a big role, anything you try from the market will be below average, so buy freshly ground coffee, play with extraction seconds, grind size, and coffee variety, press the tamp, and at some point you will find the golden ratio and enjoy a decent cup of coffee, definitely better than the neighborhood takeaways that often serve diluted coffee instead of real coffee. It is worth it up to 80 to 90 euros due to the bars it delivers. Good coffees!

  This review is about the colour: Black

  It makes good coffee with a good layer of foam and flavor, always considering its price. Indeed, the nozzle for the frother, while having high pressure and making froth relatively easily, emits a plastic smell that I hope will go away over time. The thermometer helps a lot in controlling the temperature, but it requires some experimentation to achieve the desired result. The plastic is not as glossy as it may appear in the photos, and the heated surface for the cups, being plastic as well, probably doesn't heat them enough. The water suction tube requires some attention when filling the container because it tends to come out of its position, which means that the pump draws air instead of water, which is not ideal. Its biggest advantage is definitely its appearance, as mentioned before. It's worth it for under 70 euros, but I think there are better options for 80+. Update 25/04/2021: It ended up being returned due to leakage, even though it was taken to the service center and supposedly repaired, it came back with the same problem. I do not recommend it.

  Good foam, nice coffee, but a big negative is the milk frother.. it leaves a terrible plastic taste from the device and doesn't go away no matter how much you use it, it has the same taste and doesn't go away even with cleaning

  This review is about the colour: Black

  Update: If you want to drink good coffee... DO NOT GET THIS ONE. I bought an Arielli because I was fed up with this piece of **** and I found the solution. Instead of drinking coffee from this useless device, it's better to drink ground dirt, it will be healthier. It's unbelievable that they sell a rubbery device like this at such a price just because of the barista trend. For your health, don't buy it.

  FIRST COMMENT: It's been 20 days since I've been trying to make good coffee with this specific one and it constantly turns out terrible. Initially, I cleaned it with lemon and water to get rid of the plastic smell... but the water container is made of very poor quality plastic, as well as the tube that draws the water, which is also made of dirty plastic. The only positive thing I can mention is that it makes foam, and maybe the milk frother... but you can easily do that in a pot. Anyway, it's a waste of money. Get another one.

  A friend of mine who has it herself gave it to me as a gift. It makes great coffee and froth. It also has a very nice appearance!

  It heats up very quickly and the coffee comes out with a very good froth!
  It's worth every penny and more. Also, it is very beautiful!
