After two and a half years, the heating element burned out. And the coffee maker has become useless. The only sure thing is that I will not buy the Izzy brand again.

Stay away. With about 40 coffees a year, maybe even less, exactly one month after the warranty expired, it just stopped heating. It opens normally and the lights keep blinking even after 3 hours.

I have had it for 3 years. I am very satisfied. It makes good coffee and has never clogged even once. I have not used capsules, only ground coffee. Also, I have never made frothy milk, so I don't know about cappuccino...

I have had it for 2 months, I am very satisfied with both cold and hot coffee. I did some experiments until I found the dosage and the brand of coffee, and now I like it more than the coffee they make outside. In the first few days, I struggled a bit until I figured out how to make frothed milk, but in the end, I managed, and it comes out quite good if I let it sit a little longer

I am very satisfied with using it for a year now with ground coffee. Only once a problem arose, but I realized it was an issue with the coffee, as it had very small granules. However, I would like to ask those who have also used the capsule function, what kind of capsules do you recommend and what size capsules does it take?

2nd time I buy this specific machine.
Automatic without needing to be on top of it.
All machines make noise so there is no silent one.
I have never been able to make frothy milk, maybe I am doing something wrong. However, it is a good choice and very good value for money.

After a year of daily use, I can say that I am very satisfied. Very good coffee with a very good froth, better than a café's. The only downside is that it makes a bit of noise, but personally, it doesn't bother me. It's worth its money.

One thing I will say, I bought it last year, kept it for a year and it broke. They told me I could get a refund of 100 and I bought the same one again, because it suited me. I just noticed and I'm telling future buyers, the second one I bought is much better. It has better creaminess, while the previous one was for... Be careful, if the creaminess is not a finger, turn it back.

I got it with an offer of about 66 euros without knowing it, but I didn't bother because I would only use it at work (2 espressos a day) and I have been completely satisfied. It hasn't had the slightest problem, it works perfectly and for its price, it makes very good coffee with foam. What has impressed me compared to the Delonghi (which costs four times as much at home) is that it never gets clogged, even if you put more coffee than the Max indication on the quantity (especially when I use the Coffee Island Silk River Blend). There is no chance that my machine will get clogged if I accidentally put more or press it harder, unlike with any other packaging I've tried. I have nothing negative to say because all my other machines were only from Delonghi, which always had problems. But here, after 1.5 years of frequent use, I can't write anything negative!

Within 10 months, I am expecting the second replacement. In the 4th month, it stopped heating up both times.
At first, it makes incredible coffee, but after a month, it becomes watery.
Now, with the third device, I will advertise it to sell it at half price in its box, hoping to save...

This machine does not make good coffee, I have had it for a week. It produces froth, not crema. With freshly ground coffee using a capsule, it produces slightly better froth. It pauses when you extract the coffee and then runs water again. This time burns the coffee in the group.

Flawless, 99 euros on 1/23.
But
The steam nozzle was clogged, they hadn't completely pierced the tube at the end! Unbelievable but true! I pierced it easily with a sharp tool. It doesn't leak water and I have no problems with its function as others claim, just read the instructions, it's not difficult.

Excellent. I use Dimello pre-ground coffee from the market. Truly excellent. Easy cleaning, quick heating, and everything is perfect.

But let me emphasize, because I see reviews about capsules...
For capsules, obviously, I do not recommend it.
Anyone who wants capsules will buy a machine for capsules. I have spare capsules for emergencies when I run out of coffee. So I happened to make 2-3 coffees. Average, but okay.

For 100 euros, it's perfect. If you want to drink coffee from capsules, it's better to get something else, it doesn't make it nice and I've tried many brands.

If you put ground coffee, it makes it perfect. Foam doesn't work well for me.

At first, you have to play a little to find the right seconds for the water to run, so that it doesn't make the coffee watery. Overall, I am satisfied, I've had it for a year and it hasn't given me any problems. I have a little issue with cleaning, where I have to constantly press the button for the water to run with the cleaner. It doesn't have continuous operation.

I bought the first one and the adjacent round button that makes the froth broke. I took it to the service and they told me there are no spare parts. Replacement was made and the second one, after 3 months of use, no longer heats up, it needs to be changed again. Stay away!

Stay away. Besides the fact that it is poorly made and feels like it will fall apart in your hands, when you press the button for the dose, it starts running water for 2 seconds, stops for 1 second, and then starts again with the same result, causing the dose to burn and you end up drinking burnt coffee. Disappointing...

When I first use the steam wand to froth milk and then switch it to make coffee, it gets blocked and the indicators on the buttons start flashing. And I have to turn it on and off from the main switch 2-3 times for it to work. And I found a way that at least works for me. When I press the button for the steam wand to froth milk and then I have to go back for coffee, I press the button for steam again and it returns to normal for coffee. It may flash because the water has cooled down, you will understand it by the rate at which the indicators light up that it is working fine and when the water heats up, it will stabilize

In terms of construction, it is not something great, it makes a lot of noise and all its parts creak when it operates.
I have had it for about a month and it doesn't make a nice coffee at all (I have only tried ready-made, pre-ground coffee from the market so far), the coffee comes out without crema and watery. I haven't tried frothed milk.
The coffee capsule attachment also doesn't make good coffee compared to classic capsule machines. Disappointing, I do not recommend it.

The first month it worked very well, it made a lot of thick and creamy foam and the taste of the coffee was perfect. Suddenly, it started to not make foam and to come out like a French coffee, and the taste of the coffee is quite inferior. It should be noted that since I bought it, I have been using the same coffee, the red Dimello... after cleaning and descaling, the problem was fixed.

That's how it was for the first two weeks, I'm waiting for a replacement, I hope, that is, mine has a problem, it's not working now

Quite good for its price. It makes enough cream in the coffee, it resembles more foam than cream (kaïmaki) like in professional machines. However, it is a domestic machine, with normal noise, easy to use, heats up quickly and provides satisfactory results. It also takes Nespresso capsules with moderate results, but it is designed for loose coffee. With Coffee Island coffee only, ground to 2.2 and a little more pressure than the regular tamping (I press it slightly).

The machine with some modifications makes coffee better than the take away. If you touch it. Of course, you lose the warranty because you have to open it.

Perfect frother, easy to use.
Didn't make froth though.
If you find the right ground coffee, it's perfect.
But it creaks and the cup might come off its place.
Average build quality.
But it's worth its 100€ price if I remember correctly

Very good! And the cool things they say it does are not true. They clearly state it in the instructions. First the coffee and then the frothy milk, otherwise the lights blink until it cools down. I recommend it! And with flow time adjustment!!!

Vfm
Unbelievable machine for its price
In the positives
You can adjust the water flow time as much as you want
Keeps the cups warm
Quick heating
Desalination indicator
Works with ground coffee and capsules
At 86 euros, it's a steal
Didn't find anything negative

After much thought and extensive research on the espresso machine market, reading countless reviews and having a budget of about €100, I ended up purchasing this specific one. Initially, I agree with the previous user's comment regarding the issue observed after using the frother nozzle, as the indicators for single or double espresso doses flicker, resulting in the need to restart two or three times. It is very good for its price and produces a rich foam, even with coffee purchased from a supermarket. It requires attention to the pressure applied when placing the ground coffee in the filter. It needs a little pressure, just enough to evenly distribute the powder in the filter. Otherwise, the coffee will not have much foam. It is a cheap construction, but one cannot have high expectations for this price. The result in the coffee compensates, as you can enjoy a decent coffee without wasting your money on takeaways!

Very good machine.. The pros are that it also takes capsules. It makes very good coffee with rich foam. I didn't give it 5 stars because it does something weird. When I first use the steam wand to froth milk (only then), and then I switch it to make coffee, it gets stuck and the indicators on the buttons start flashing.. And you have to open and close it from the main switch 2-3 times for it to finally work...

The base that you place the cup on trembles a bit, but I tightened it with a plastic to prevent noise. When using the steam nozzle, you cannot use the water pump for some reason and it needs to be restarted 1-2 times. Overall, the construction is cheap but it's decent for its price. The steam is okay and the coffee turns out good if you do some tests first. 5 stars (for its category).

For anyone who has a water leak when taking it out of the box and connecting it for the first time, where it connects to the water container, there is a protective rubber band, remove it, and that's what happened to me after I realized it. Now, as for the machine, it is decent and does what the others in its category do. Especially if you are from Thessaloniki, where you can't find normal espresso anywhere, except for this one with 1000.

update 6/9/22
Value for money, I have saved a lot of money from coffees all this time, the machine works perfectly without any problems. If you use expensive coffee, it makes a better result compared to the cheap ones, so it's not really a machine issue, at least not in mine.
