Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

A car from the first 200 samples (according to the serial number) was bought more than 4 years ago in Turkey, for 399 liras, as I remember now. During this time, more than 5,000 cups of delicious coffee have been made. With what kind of grinding, varieties, types of coffee I just did not experiment. You can even warm up a cold drink and prepare boiling water for tea :)
At a distance: after a couple of years, the plastic on the glass burst, sometimes the sensor does not recognize coffee (some brands do not want to cook and that's it), coffee ran away once (the sensor did not work). Everything, as well as a trouble-free car, I recommend.

If you have a frequent error (turns off with a pink LED), wipe the sensor with a tissue, check that the water is up to a maximum of -2.5 cm from the edge, you poured water into the coffee powder (and not vice versa), try a different grind/brand of coffee.

 For the perfect taste, you need ultra-fine grinding, on coffee grinders sold in the 2022, for the most part, ultra-fine grinding (declared) is never ultra-fine and this is a problem.

A new Turkish glass (already cast, without a border) is sold at any Beko / Archelik service in Turkey (600 for our money).

Now cars have risen in price, they cost 699 lire. Versions with automatic water filling have appeared - I don’t recommend it, because. the amount of water and types of coffee is very limited, it will not be possible to restart, only all over again.

Pros

Excellent coffee maker for Turkish coffee. Easy to use.

Cons

1. The old-style Turk had a glossy koyma, which burst over time (you don’t even need to drop it, just different types of plastic behave differently). Super glue does not dissolve this plastic, therefore it does not stick, it is necessary to glue it with two-component adhesives. 2. Because there is an optical sensor, it is important to use the right coffee (although you can use any, even Dibek with some experience), preferably ultra-fine grinding, coffee always gives an error on some brands and roasts. 3. If the coffee ran away, it is necessary to disassemble and clean the steam vent, it is difficult. But this is an extremely rare situation. No other deficiencies were identified.
