We own two of these machines. Once you have had coffee made by these machines, you will never have traditional brewed coffee again. It is so nice to make a fresh cup at will. No burnt flavors. No oxidation. Cannot comment on durability yet. Machine is very sophisicated and well made however. A bit expensive but I guess you get what you pay for.

Bought the refurbished machine after reading other reviews hoping that I would luck out with a good one. But, not this time. Immediately tried to set it up, but the lids to the water and coffee bean tanks were so warped and bend that they would not stay on the tanks (let alone close properly). And, the water filter was missing. Additionally, the dredge drawer was giving false readings...so, I just shipped mine back today to return. I guess it's all about luck with buying refurbished items. It just wasn't mine!

After contemplating on purchasing this coffe maker for a long time, I finally did. I was first introduced to this product in Europe and was immediately drawn to the quality and appearance of this machine. My husband and I are coffee gourmets and absolutely love this product. It performs as stated, is easy to operate, to include set-up. Maintenance is a breeze and you wind up with the perfect cup of coffee any time. I do recommend purchasing a maintenance agreement with this machine, since the grinder can wear out, especially if you use oily coffee beans. A total win/win situation. We are very pleased with our purchase.

After experiencing a cup of coffee from this machine at my brother in law's home, I was hooked immediately. I have never tasted a smoother cup of coffee, and the layer of creme topped it off perfectly. Not to sound boorish, but being from Seattle, the Capital of Coffee, I am experienced. I knew I had to have one. I must say that when I received it, I was unneasy to find that it had been refurbished, and that it was only garaunteed for only 6 months. Hopfully, no problems. My brother said that they had had grinder problems also, but were told by the serviceman that the reason was oily beans. Since they changed to a less oily bean, they have had no problems. So to any new owners of this wonderful coffee maker, avoid oily beans.
