La machine est belle même si c'est surtout du plastique (pour le prix, on ne s'en plaindra pas...) mais je trouve le mode d'emploi plutôt compliqué. Par ailleurs, je n'ai pas encore vu le manomètre afficher plus de 10 bars or je ne sais pas comment augmenter la pression moi-même. Enfin j'aurais souhaité que le café sorte un peu plus chaud...

Have this machine now for two weeks. I really like it. I came from a fully automated machine but the taste with the same beans was after ten years all over the place. I bought this machine because the temperature is adjustable, just like all the better machines in Italy to my observation. I have not checked whether the temperature setting actually corresponds very well with the temperature of the coffee in the cup, but it sure seems to adjust something when adjusting the temperature. I am a bit worried about the durability of the touch screen. It feel strong but this is the most complex part of the machine I guess so time will tell.

What can be improved to my taste: 1. The piston for one cup generates too.much foam on the coffee. I think this might be because of the area that exists under the filter in the piston with the smaller filter (but not sure). I know just use the bigger filter, problem solved. And the grind has 4 steps in settings of fineness of the grind of the beans. I think like 3-4 more setting steps in between ( so about 8 different steps) would have made it a bit better. Overall very happy with it and I hope it stays functioning well.

For the other review here on this product. I share the experience, but I also bought this machine, because with the previous fully automated i sometimes ignored cleaning it for a while because I could bur that does not keep the machine and coffee in the best condition. With this machine i use a clean cloth and clean it in like 3 seconds after each cup i make. I like it that way now and deliberately chose for that. But I can understand that there is a chance for improvement here too. For the rest, very happy with it.
