Saeco Coffee Maker Odea Giro Plus Auto Espresso



Very happy after one month...
OK, so I get one of these for my birthday after years of cappuccino making with a manual stainless steel Breville espresso machine. I feel pretty useless now because this gadget does all the work for me, including grinding the beans. All I have to do is fill the water tank and pour the coffee pucks into the sink. And then simply enjoy some excellent coffee.

This particular machine is housed largely in plastic, and for that reason I would judge it to be a home kitchen, consumer grade espresso maker. After a month of use, I do have a couple of minor gripes. First, I wish the machine remembered the desired setting of the coffee strength controls on the front panel. Unfortunately, the user must remember to reset every time the machine is turned on...unless he or she prefers the weakest setting. Second, despite the adjustable cup tray height, it sometimes slides slowly downward if particularly heavy cups or mugs are placed on it, and I see no way to adjust the tension...
