Its fully automatic operation simplifies use, making it accessible even for beginners. With the ability to prepare a variety of beverages such as coffee, espresso, cappuccino, latte macchiato, as well as tea and hot chocolate, this machine offers appreciable versatility for coffee lovers. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The 0.7 L water tank capacity may require frequent refilling, especially for those who prepare multiple cups at once. Additionally, the lack of an integrated grinder limits coffee customization, which may disappoint purists who prefer freshly ground beans. The maximum pressure of 3.3 bar may also not be sufficient to achieve optimal quality espresso, compared to other models on the market. The integrated LED screen makes navigating the options easy, but the 0.9 m cable length may restrict the installation flexibility of the device.
