Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Equipped with 15 bars of pump pressure, this 1500-watt automatic espresso machine makes it effortless to enjoy cafe-quality beverages from the comfort of home. It features an innovative control dial and large buttons for easily customizing the aroma and amount of coffee in the cup and for choosing between one or two cups simultaneously; alert lights to the left of the dial provide clear, instant details for each function. The appliance also provides a patented removable brew group that allows the machine to tamp, brew, and dispense coffee in one cycle (remove the brew group for quick rinsing and chemical-free cleaning). In addition, its built-in ceramic grinder ensures the best results without altering the flavor of coffee. The grinder delivers a more even grind for perfect dosing and blending, which means more control over the density and body of coffee--plus substantially reduces the amount of coffee residue in the cup. Even more, the espresso machine's Rapid Steam technology reduces the normal waiting time between brewing coffee and steam output to just a few seconds. A separate heat exchange for steam delivers fast and continuous steam pressure for creating a creamy milk froth in no time. The included Pannarello frothing device dispenses steam in three different directions and makes it simple to froth milk for cappuccinos and lattes or to dispense hot water for Americanos, tea, and hot chocolate. Additional highlights include a stainless-steel boiler, a 180-gram-capacity bean container, an OptiDose adjustable doser (7 to 10-1/2 grams), a removable 1-1/2-liter water tank, a Brita water filter, a large cup-stacking surface that can hold up to six espresso cups at a time, and an adjustable-height drip tray that can be raised or lowered to accommodate a wide range of cup sizes. For added convenience, the unit's Energy Safe mode kicks in when the machine sits idle (choose Stand-By mode for enhanced energy savings). Durably housed in ABS plastic with an ultra-sleek and stylish design, the espresso machine measures 15 by 11-1/2 by 14-1/2 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

The components and features are placed to simplify its every function; just push a button to have everything adjusted to your taste. The Giro interface allows you to choose the amount and aroma of your favorite coffee, the drip tray height is adjustable and thanks to Rapid Steam®, you can create a creamy milk froth in just seconds. Made to last long and to offer the same standards with every cup of coffee, the Odea models make a statement in flavor as well as quality. With the Rapid Steam® technology available in the Odea Giro, it's just a matter of seconds between brewing your espresso and frothing milk. The long pannarello arm can froth milk in almost any sized container, and also dispenses hot water. For perfect-tasting coffee every time. The ceramic grinder is Saeco's most recent innovation, available in all new models of the Saeco range of automatic coffee machines. After careful research, Saeco finally chose this material to put an end to grinding with metal components. Ceramic is inert, and thus ensures the best results without altering the flavor of the coffee. Moreover, it is perfectly safe to use. The new ceramic grinder also provides a more consistent grind, allowing perfect dosing and blending, and giving you more control over the density and body of your coffee. And that's not all - the amount of coffee residue left in the cup is substantially reduced. Long-lasting, minimum noise! Thanks to its sturdy build, the ceramic coffee grinder will quietly grind to the same consistency and high standards for a longer period of time. The drip tray can be easily raised or lowered manually with a simple touch, allowing for different cup sizes. Espresso cups or glasses can easily be accommodated.

Junk,
This review is from: Saeco 658 Odea Giro 15-Bar-Pump Automatic Espresso Machine (Kitchen)
Seeking the perfect 'superautomatic' espresso machine, we bought this model a little over 2 years ago. Worked fine for a while. Coffee quality good, nice frothing. Then, after about year, it began to leak water from beneath. When this got to the point of flooding the counter, we sought service. Nearest Saeco-registered service center (and the only one in Missouri) was 100 miles away. Dropped it off, left the required $75 deposit. It took the service shop a NINE MONTHS to receive parts. And, it turns out, not all the parts were sent. Service bill: $200 (1/3 the cost of the machine)ON WARRANY. After another 200 mile round trip, it was back in the kitchen. It lasted 2 weeks, and completely stopped functioning. Among other things, the frothing stopped working That's all for this SAECO. "Superautomatic" sounds too good to be true, and it is.Advice: 1) don't buy SAECO machines 2) don't buy any machine lacking reviews after at least a year of use. Read a lot of reviews and you'll see that this kind of breakdown is very common among all brands of superautomatics. 3) get up early enough to make a cup of coffee yourself. We're back to our totally reliable, unbreakable, Mukka Express.

This review is from: Saeco 658 Odea Giro 15-Bar-Pump Automatic Espresso Machine (Kitchen)
Saeco did not work at all straight out of the box. called customer service, Kenneth B , who offered immediate replacement. However after I mailed faulty machine back it took me a month of frustration, calls, emails, etc, until finally replacement was send. Stay away from Saeco if you can. If you bought it from Costco or Starbucks just take it back, instead of Saeco recommendation in the box: "do not take it back, call us ,blah, blah"

Odea Giro- Great Lightweight Model,
This review is from: Saeco 658 Odea Giro 15-Bar-Pump Automatic Espresso Machine (Kitchen)
Great lightweight basic machine. Makes one cup at a time at the push of a button (without wasteful coffee sitting in the coffee pot). Great for travel as it is lighweight and fairly small. Enjoy your cup of coffee 'away from home".But, undertand the type of coffee you use with these machines. If using oily coffee, this is NOT the machine for you. Your grinder will need to be set to coarser setting (ask Service Repair on best approach); you will need to clean the brew group regularly AND lubricate the rew group. Oily coffee pastes and causes stress on moving parts if not cleaned/maintained. Gears, motor and grinder components will fail if NOT properly maintaining this machine when using oily coffee. This machine works BEST with true Italian roast coffee as it does not paste so minimal maintenance. Descale every 3 months.
