This is a compact,simple and comparatively quiet bean to cup coffee maker which is easy to use and clean and makes good espresso coffee. A big plus with the Beko is that the brew unit is particularly easy to remove and clean. For some the downside would be lack of adjustable temperature for the coffee and hot water but if you heat your cups this does not really matter. It is best suited to single people and small families. It does not froth milk but if you want milky coffees you can do this with a separate milk frother which will be generally be easier to clean and use than a built in steam pipe or automatic milk frother. I have bought an induction frother which is very convenient.
Initially it was a little tricky to use but once all the procedures were worked through it performed easily and very well. The memory system is a great idea. In all an excellent bean to cup machine.
DO NOT BUY. Ours broke after 12 months, as did a friends of ours who bought one on our initial recommendation. The mechanism that disposes of old coffee stops working. AO not interested as it was out of warranty.
