Krups Xp5280
(More reviews) My first espresso maker krups xp5280 lasted 18 years. The Krups XP 5280 espresso machine did not last 18 days. The steam nozzle attachment began blowing in steam. If the steam nozzle attachment has not completely blown off and steam sprayed from the top to the operator of the machine. I have seen many similar complaints in the models krups xp5280 cheaper, but the picture shows a different wand attachment to XP 5280. As it turns out, the attachment shown in the picture is the one who receives a flexible plastic tube to insert them into a milk carton. I can not imagine a very high percentage of buyers never use such a commitment. Since I intend to Lattes with the machine, the machine was rendered useless to me because of the steam nozzle attachment poorly designed. I would be shocked if the quality assurance team tested it over a week or two. Or maybe the engineering group ignored their recommendations to correct the design?. Krups xp5280 system ensures optimal Tamp patented precise damage each time to perfect crema and results. Tamp said the system extracts a perfect cup every time for a delicious espresso, latte or cappuccino. The 1400W thermo block heating system pre-double f. We were very happy with our XP5220 KRUPS. It makes excellent coffee and froth in no time and is very easy to use. You do not need to be very careful when cleaning the unit lather. We broke in the first 3 days. krups xp5280 defended their product and sent a replacement immediately. We have been happy since. The machine is fairly simple to use, although this is just a guess. Instructions are clear, but the explanation of functions is not. For example, after the light that indicates that the water heater stops flashing, the light starts flashing again during the brewing process. The instructions do not mention that, so I do not know if something goes wrong or is it just to heat the water again and maintaining the temperature. The spoon in the box that supposedly under the cover next to the water tank does not fit under the lid, so obviously the wrong spoon was sent with this machine. It makes no sense to return the entire machine just because it's the wrong spoon, but the site lists krups xp5280 does not replace the spoon for this model. In addition, for first-time buyers of an espresso machine, some education to make a cappuccino would be a courteous welcome. . . . (More reviews) My first espresso maker krups xp5280 lasted 18 years.
