Review on KRUPS XP3208 Espresso Cappuccino 1 5 Liter by Heidi Smith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great machine but the espresso cup is very small.

Great espresso machine from a great manufacturer! After doing some research I decided to give this a try based on the good reviews and previous experience with the Krups brand. They also have one of the best manufacturer warranties in the business! My only complaint about the machine is that the brew cup holds very little ground espresso; only enough for two small espressos. Unfortunately I had to make a double espresso for two every morning to make cafe con leche'. Unfortunately, the machine simply cannot do this due to the size of the espresso cup. In addition, this machine is an absolute eye-catcher and at a great price, and it also brews a very, very good espresso with a good crema on top. This machine is also excellent for quickly frothing milk for coffee specialties such as cappuccino or café con leche. If it weren't for the smaller espresso brewing cup, I would definitely keep this machine. I'm disappointed that I had to return the device, but I hope Krups will eventually increase the size of this espresso brewing cup to brew more espresso at once. For those of you who don't mind a smaller brew cup, this unit is an absolute steal at this price point with great performance and a great warranty.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
