Comments about Espressione Cafe Chic:

For the price this one can't be beat. Pump has plenty of power and the water tank is quite large. Makes great espresso and froths milk for cappuccino like a champ.

Comments about Espressione Cafe Chic:

This tall and large machine is all plastic. You must stand there an watch it brew the coffee, as it does not shut off automatically. At first it was a little complicated but you get the hang of it. The removable water tank is convenient and has a self primer. The thermocream disc is a pain to fit into the filter ring, the silicon ring gets away from you while cleaning the filter, you must be careful it does no go down the drain. I checked the website for parts, but no parts were listed.
