Review on ☕ Mr. Coffee ECM150 - Espresso and Cappuccino Coffee Maker by Jesse Blair

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Attractively priced. in every sense.

My Francis! Francis! The X1 sank so after 6 years of flawless service I sent it in for repair. It was a good, almost excellent car. To calm myself, I decided to grab the cheapest home espresso machine. Voila - Mister Coffee delivers. While it makes something like espresso, it's actually not a very good espresso. In fact, it's a really terrible espresso. But it works and I have something that does the job. The espresso is bitter, no special controls required, and all the reviews I've read here are correct for better or worse, except for the exploding car review, which may or may not be true. This is a good cheap "black coffee maker". If you just need a little bit then you are here. Buy it. If you want something decent in the form of espresso, these really are the pits. However, the coffee works despite the watery and bitter result. I didn't use foam concentrate. I'm not sure I ever will as I don't want these coffee experiences to linger any longer than necessary. I miss my Illy very much.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Useless functions
