What is the CHOICE Expert Rating?
Good points

Good Points

  • Easy to wipe over black plastic exterior as there is little entrapment for dirt to built up.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Need to manually stop coffee delivery.
  • Reverse end of measuring spoon is used as a tamper and can be difficult for user to apply controlled pressure.
  • Can't accommodate larger cups.
  • May need to bend down to check positioning to insert group head, as there are no markings and unit sits low on bench.
  • Steam wand is short in length and does not extend far enough away from the unit, which makes it difficult to get a good angle for frothing milk.
  • No milk jug supplied.
