Over all good unit. App/Wifi is flaky – After 3-4 weeks its been a solid performer. Water is hotter then it was with the old gas unit we had before. It runs quieter then the fridge we have and costs about $0.31 per day…

to run. Never ran out of hot water with 4 people in the house. Really good unit overall. Wifi seems to drop out all the time though which makes controlling it via the app problematic, but it has a timer build in to the unit which can be used to run it during the day when solar is being produced.

Amazingly good coffee. Best coffee machine I've had – We have had this for about 5 months now. We spent a few weeks travelling around northern Europe and couldn't wait to come home because we couldn't find coffee as good as the ones…

we make at home with this machine.

Seriously, the coffee it makes is that good.

There is a few things to keep in mind. You need to set the machine up properly and you should buy freshly roasted beans. Once the machine is set up right you will never have to mess with it and it will be consistently good every time.

I recommend the following to set it up: - Turn the coffee temp down to the lowest setting. The coffee still comes out too hot to drink, but anything higher then minimum will burn the beans and give a bitter flavour. - turn the amount of coffee used up to maximum. - turn down the amount of water used till you get a good espresso sized shot of coffee. Then adjust the milk to suit. This is how they do it in the cafes and this will give you the best tasting cappuccino/latte. - make sure to turn adjust the grinder towards 'fine' till it blocks up and can't extract. Then turn it one or two notches towards 'course' and try again. You want it as fine as it can tolerate so get a nice long pour and a nice thick crema.

The Bluetooth app makes it really easy to set up and customise but I haven't used it since.

We have makes about 500 coffees now (according to the stats in the machine) and it has never missed a beat. I would buy it again if I had to.

Does what it says on the box – It's not super well built but more then adequate if you look after your stuff/tools. I've had it for 6 months used for a few big projects and they are holding up great. Sound…

quality is not amazing but it would be silly to expect it to sound like a Bose head set for this price. But don't get me wrong - they sound good, and heaps better then listening to a brick cutter all day long. I only use the Bluetooth and have had no issues with sygnal/reception. I do find that if I have the volume on the phone up too high then it might clip/cut out so I put the volume to 80% and the problem goes away.

Works great – It is big and takes a large load. The heating element is designed to take regular bread and extra large bread. Dont expect it to crimp the edges and cut the middle cos its not…

designed to do that. My old jaffle maker would squash the edges and make them extra crunchy but this wont do that, its designed to pack the filling all the way to the edge.

Very handy and practical – I love being able to whip it out and blow stuff almost instantly. Its very light and easy to use. Its more then enough power to blow the leaves and dirt down my driveway. I use…

the same battery I got with the whipper snipper (5mah) and it last for ages.
