OK – Ideal for coffee lovers who aren't too serious about quality. Great machine to begin making your own cappachino or expresso. Wouldn't buy this one again though due to the awful taste if it isnt rinsed out. Cheap coffee maker and fairly easy to use once you have mastered how much coffee to put in according to taste. The milk frother is ok but not as good as in the coffee shops. Have to rinse it out EVERY time as otherwise the coffee has that horrible reboiled water taste and is undrinkable. This is despite using bottled water.
