Its 1.2 L water tank offers prolonged use without the need for frequent refills, which is an advantage for coffee enthusiasts. However, some drawbacks deserve to be highlighted. The absence of the Multi-drink feature limits preparation options, which may disappoint those looking for greater variety. Additionally, its weight of 8200 g can make it difficult to move, especially during cleaning or storage. The capacity of the tank may also prove insufficient for users who prepare multiple cups at once. In terms of ergonomics, the illuminated power switch makes it easy to use, although the island design may not fit all kitchens. The power of 1200 W ensures quick heating, but some users might find this power insufficient compared to other, more efficient models. Overall, the Krups XP4020 offers good value for money, but its price may seem high compared to other machines that offer more varied features. The user manual is comprehensive, although a bit bulky for those who prefer more concise instructions.
