Title: expensive piece of junk!
Product review: The espresso side of the machine doesn't work. No water comes through for espresso, also can't froth milk or get hot water. I've been reading that this seems to be a common complaint. I've found some people who have replaced either the valves and or the flow meter and it has fixed their problem. I'm going to have my husband take it apart and see if either of those should be replaced. Both items will cost about 40 dollars so I'll give it a shot. If it doesn't work then I'll just keep using it as a coffee maker only till it dies. I'll never buy a krups product again. Another friend of mine only drinks espresso and had their top of the line stand alone unit. It died as well, a few times ,before he finally gave up on sending it in or replacing cheap parts and bought a different brand. I agree with the other reviews about the thin, constantly leaking pot with the easily broken lid. I replaced the pot and lid already once.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
