1.0 out of 5 stars Broke within 6 weeks, September 25, 2008

By	S. Mehta - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Saeco A-SPV-SV Spidem Villa Super-Automatic Espresso Machine, Silver (Kitchen)

I bought this on a Friday sale for a great discount over normal price. However, I was underwhelmed by the quality as soon as I took it out of the box. Almost all parts are made of cheap plastic. Several controls are unintuitive and accessible only by opening coffee bean tank. Manual is poorly written.

Most importantly the machine started breaking down within one month and completely stopped working in 6 weeks.

The company has poor customer service with long wait times. They don't pay for shipping for warranty service. Be careful if you decide to buy this and don't throw away the packaging materials. They make you pay for those too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Espresso Machine, September 3, 2009

By	M. Irene (Raleigh-Durham, NC USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Saeco A-SPV-SV Spidem Villa Super-Automatic Espresso Machine, Silver (Kitchen)

This machine was a replacement for a beloved Saeco Magic Deluxe which faithfully served great espresso for years. The machine does not disappoint. It looks great, although mostly plastic. The buttons are a bit flimsy and I wish it could accept ground coffee rather than beans-only. The espresso is superb and you can't really go wrong with this unit.

This review is from: Saeco A-SPV-SV Spidem Villa Super-Automatic Espresso Machine, Silver (Kitchen)

this coffee machine has saved my wife and I at least $80 in the month that we have had it. It is easy to use, even though the instructions that come with it were a little vague, once you use it a couple times there are no more problems. The only little thing I would change about it is that you cannot froth milk at the same time as pulling shots but considering this feature would cost another $200-$300 I can definitely live without it. makes great tasting coffee and was a great purchase.
