good espresso machine for the price, lots of crema, steam could be stronger but im sure thats what the really expensive machines have that this doesnt, i would buy it again..
this product will meet your needs if you are looking for a basic machine that delivers good espresso at a decent cost.
i have already recommended it to several friends who are always looking for a great espresso maker and a great price.
the espresso it makes is equal to that of machines costing 10x as much.
it makes a real espresso, always creamy through the special device it has, and the price was the same of the 'steam ' machines i had seen in ny before looking on amazon.
it will make everyone in the house happy and it is very affordable!
the cost is $169.99 and the machine is made by krups, so i know it is well engineered.
on one hand it does make some very good drinks but on the other hand i think it's too expensive to buy and use.
it is so worth the money.
it is well worth the money even if you only use for a couple of the flavors.
it seems that there used to be only basic espresso makers or extremely expensive ones on the market, with nothing in between.
all in all this is machine makes a great espresso that can compete with any of the higher priced models out there.
so, if you want to make espresso the old fashioned way, this is quite a nifty little gadget at a very reasonable price.
granted we were thrilled that we were able to purchase this espresso maker for about $[...] off the going retail price.
i like to drink a latte daily, but at nearly $4 a pop it was getting to be quite a pricey habit.
the product is exactly what i had hoped for, it is well built, and worth the price.
we have an expensive full-size espresso maker and he tends not to use it because of all the work/mess involved.
yes, it's a bit expensive but being able to get a decent cup of espresso makes it worthy of the premium price tag for me.
the pods are a little pricey, but buying in bulk helps.
the build quality of the handpresso is top notch, commensurate with its price (i.e.
great product, super price, and quick shipment.
the selection of k-cups for it is diverse and and reasonably priced.
it's too expensive for how simple it is, but i will make the cost back in two months or so of not going to a coffee house on the way to work.
she says that the coffee (or tea or hot chocolate) that she brews from it is as good as any she could buy from a coffee shop and much less expensive per cup.
i have been buying k-cups via amazon with the subscribe and save discount and it makes them pretty affordable.
it's a basket filter, not a cone filter, so i wind up using more grounds than really necessary (but any cone-filter coffeemaker is automatically at least $25 more expensive than a basket, go figure).
i was a bit skeptical of the dcm2590 because of the price, but i was wrong.
great delivery and good price!
he is saving money by having the coffee in his room as opposed to buying expensive coffee drinks elsewhere.
the timer works well, too, and you can't beat the price!
this is an expensive coffeemaker, but it makes great coffee.
i love it and i found out that the inside machinery is basically the same as the models that cost 2-3 times more.
it appears amazon has now raised the price.
knowing that with 100 other people roaming around the building it would probably get abused a bit, i decided on the spidem villa machine purely due to price--i paid about $350 for it on sale.
for the price the machine makes a very nice cup of espresso.
i am very happy with the press and i hope to have a long and happy association with it, and for the price...well, it can't be beat and amazon's shipping, as always was fast.
a friend and fellow coffee addict turned me onto the press idea and i figured i'd try ordering this bodum off amazon because it came well-rated (and was the same price as walmart's generic brand
i watched the price ping pong up and down and finally got it for $18.99.
potentially, that could be costly, but with the reduced price that amazon currently offers these models, it might be a moot point.
i had read some negatives about this particular model and because the price was very reasonable, thought it might be true, but bought it anyway.
i just recently purchased this machine as an xmas gift for my parents and got it at an unbelievable friday sale price ($399.00 + free shipping).
the only little thing i would change about it is that you cannot froth milk at the same time as pulling shots but considering this feature would cost another $200-$300 i can definitely live without it
my only concern was the price -- it is expensive.
when i searched for the web for a machine i had a 500.00 budget set for the machine.and narrowed it to two francisfrancis!
i said it was not a good value for the price?
this is an excellant product for the price it is easy and convenient to use ,it is semiautomatic i have had many previous espresso machines but this ranks the best
for the price (300), it's hard to beat.
i was looking for an espresso machine that was user friendly, reasonably priced and most importantly produced great shots of espresso.
this product fits the bill and didn't cost $200 or $300 to get it.
now i know i just got it today but seriously for the money i do not think you can find a better coffee maker.
priced coffee maker and i bought this as it came highly
it can't be beat for this price.
for the price, this machine brews consistantly rich flavored coffee.
the west bend single cup coffee maker is a good product for the price.
it was well worth the money.
i read the reviews and thought i would give it a try, it was a good price for something just for myself and the shipping was efficient.
we had a hard time selecting a coffee maker in our price range.
not cheap, but the terrific metal carafe will prevent you from having to scrap a functioning machine when you have to replace a broken glass one which costs more than you paid for the entire unit.
doesn't someone at the factory tell the boss: "uh, gee - these first few pots of coffee aren't so good, maybe we better take a look at what the supplier is sending us!" at this price point cuisinart
for the price, and the fact that it has a 3 year warranty, looks great, is a cuisinart, makes great coffee quickly, and is small for a 10 cupper, i give this 5 stars.
it also costs about ten times less then an espresso machine that probably won't make as good coffee, and eventualy will need repair.
you do not have to invest in those expensive latte/cappuccino makers to enjoy a good cup of coffee!
also, the price was cheaper that what i had found on some other websites - - and illy's own website for that matter.
i decide not to buy it now, either the price will go down, or i can bring one home when visiting europe.
so, if truly great coffee, simple use, minimal cleanup, low cost, no maintenance, and an attractive modern looking machine are in the cards for you - this machine is perfect!!!
it's what i expected for this price range - ease of use, crema and no leaking messiness that frankly all the espresso machines we've ever owned offer!
price seems a lot for the construction of the machine
i took a chance and chose the xp7225 because of its small size, and because it was moderately priced for a fully automatic espresso machine.
i ended up getting the delonghi esam3300 which is the same price, slightly larger, but makes much better coffee out of the gate.
in the meantime, stay on the lookout for a used (repaired!) braun tassimo at a reasonable price on amazon marketplace :) it's not a bad deal either, provided it works!
the t-disks that are used in this coffee brewer are a little expensive.
the only difference i can tell between the $99 version and the $139 version is the inclusion of a water filter on the more expensive model and a more attractive finish.
not worth the money or hassle in my opinion.
we chose the ena 3 because it was affordable and we really didn't need the express frother and the few other features the ena 5 had.
i bought my ena 3 from bed bath and beyond with the 20% off coupon; wish amazon do price matching.
my complaint with the machine is that it does not make better foam than my old krups il primo, which costs under $100.
the milk container can be kept as is in the refrigerator to just plug in for the drinks.tne nespresso capsules do make an excellent drink, but on the downside are pricey and you must order online
for the cost i returned the machine because i could not get a hot enough ending product when using the milk attachment.
it also does not surprise me that the price has gone down almost 25%; nespresso's trying to liquidate its inventory before more problems arise and it's sitting on this junk.
cons: non except cost.
cons: price (pretty steep in the us - i bought mine in switzerland for us$500) but for the ease of use it's worth it, the space for taller cups is relatively narrow so you need to find ones that will
