Summary: Great
Comment: I do not know the most about coffee but I think this is a great product. The frother steams milk very hot and very quick. I bought it as a gift for a girl and it definitely got me laid.

Summary: Be aware of carafe replacement!
Comment: We have owned this machine for about six years and it has worked faithfully for us, but we have had to replace the carafe twice and the cost each time was ridiculous. (type in "Krups 888 carafe" in the Amazon search field and you'll see what I mean). They are very difficult to locate and when you do find one they cost a fortune. And they WILL break eventually. They are made of glass and the ones we have had have cracked over time.
We only make "regular" coffee every Saturday and Sunday, so the machine has not really seen use every single day, but having said that, we have never had any problems with it except for replacing the carafe, like I mentioned earlier.
We thought the espresso capability would be a great feature for us and in the beginning it was a nice "novelty," but over time we considered it just too much hassle and ended up only using the coffee making part. In hindsight, I really think instead of this machine we should have bought a basic, cheaper machine that just makes regular coffee, costing far less with easy to find, cheaper carafe replacements to boot.
We have decided that once the carafe breaks again, we'll scrap this machine and move to a cheaper, basic unit. We can get one with far cheaper and easy to find carafe replacements for about the same price we pay for replacing the carafe for the Krups 888.

Summary: !!! Buyer Beware !!!
Comment: Having used this Krups product for several years, my sole complaint is its very poor design.
For example, on the espresso side, the two (2) brew head gaskets (hard rubber) become loose which results in the leaking of hot water from the boiler. These gaskets ARE NOT available as replacement parts - the entire boiler assembly must be replaced. An approximately $100 repair for a few dollars parts!
This is the last Krups product we will buy. We strongly recommend against Krups products.

Summary: Perfect Cappuccino every time
Comment: Just about any machine can make good coffee but not every machine can make perfect espresso or cappuccino. I have been using this machine for about 4 years now and I love it. I read a lot of information on how to pull a perfect shot of espresso and how to perfectly foam the milk. This machine does it all like a pro. I am very happy with it and after 4 years of use it still works. It's worth the money
Customer Rating:
Summary: I wouldn't recommend purchasing this item
Comment: This Krups model is strictly mediocre. The expresso feature can not be used concurrently with the brew feature. Nore can the milk steamer be used while the brew feature is on, therefore you must brew coffee, turn off the coffee pot (thereby rebdering the coffee cold), turn on the milk frother or exresso maker, wait for it to warm up to make either expresso or steamed milk.....not a good system at all.
