Product Information
Both a regular coffeemaker and espresso machine, this 1,500-watt appliance has separate water tanks for simultaneously brewing drip coffee and espresso. The espresso machine side has a milk frother for creating cappuccinos and lattes. Separate knobs select the strength of both regular coffee and espresso. Making espresso follows tradition: tamp coffee into a filter basket inside a filter holder, twist the filter holder onto the machine, pour water into the machine's boiler, and press a button. Depending on the amount of water, up to four 2-ounce cups then flow into an 8-ounce glass carafe. Making regular coffee also follows tradition: put a filter in the filter basket, spoon in coffee, add water to the coffeemaker's removable tank, and press a button. Up to ten 5-ounce cups of coffee then flow into a 50-ounce glass carafe on a warming plate. (For five and fewer cups, the brewing process can be sped up to provide full flavor.) The brewing process pauses if the carafe is removed from the warming plate for a mid-brew pour. Encased in both bright and matte-finish black plastic, the machine measures 16 inches wide, 13-1/2 inches high, and 9 inches deep and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Reviews
This is a good value for the price. It's fast, convenientand makes great coffee/espresso. We particularly like thebuilt in milk steamer. We also like having the ability tomake coffee and espresso at the same time with one machine.The only criticism is that it has no automatic shut-off.We bought an appliance timer to cover that deficiency.That was the only point that kept us from rating it 5 stars.

Our teenage son worked in a cafe' for the summer running a major multi-thousand dollar machine, and became a self-styled expert. This machine is as much as we were willing to spring for as a gift, and it's been non-stop espresso, latte & whatever for 48 hours. He's extremely pleased, which says something to us about the machine. He's found no fault with it after testing all the features...
Makes great tasting coffee, but the expresso seems weak even at the strongest level and even with cuban expresso. The BIGGEST problem with this machine is that it breaks very easily and has a couple unfortunate design flaws. We have gone through 2 in 2 years and have given up. The filter basket broke off the first one -- it just came off in my hand one morning and couldn't be fixed. The lid for the water basket just popped off one day and we could never snap it back on. Just the other day, the water basket gasket malfunctioned and now the machine is useless as it pours water all over the counter as soon as the water basket is put into place. Other annoying features are that the carafe drips ALL over the place -- we poured our coffee over the sink. Plus, more often than is barely tolerable, if we didn't snap the carafe into place exactly right, the coffee basket filled up and HOT coffee and coffee grinds ran all over the counter -- a very annoying thing to happen first thing in the morning on your way to work -- this has NEVER happened to us with other coffeemaker models. Now that our 2nd in 2 years is broken beyond repair, we're going to go with a different coffeemaker for sure! There's a reason this [money] coffeemaker is selling at [money]!
