Pros & Cons
Pros
The smell from the coffee is very rich and mouthwatering. Nothing comes close to this machine!
Despite being tucked in tidily at the back, it's easy to remove and replace full. It has a refillable water tank and a tank that holds up to 250g of coffee beans.
The milk frother is excellent. It slides into cold milk in your cup and steams and froths at the same time. In fact, i prefer this frothing method to the old one on my pod machine. I no longer need fridge-space for it, nor do i have to worry about the... Read More

Machine has 4 * (espresso, coffee crema, cappuccino, latte macchiato) and a milk button. Great aroma that makes it easy to have straight coffee. Tasty hot espressos.

Competitiveness
ive used a cafetiere ive used an espresso machine ive used a pod machine and instant of course
Firstly when you look at this machine you dont initially think it does a onetouch latte but it does
The frother spout comes off the unit almost too easily
However the cappuccino size is only 100ml and for a latte its 150ml plus the 30 or so ml of expresso added
