Krups YY1201FD Review
- Very small, this machine is very convenient.On the one hand it does what is expected of her: Nespresso coffee. Two sizes of adjustable coffee (coffee for short or long), fast ignition (less than 25 seconds between turning on the machine and when you can start the coffee) and off by itself (after 9 minutes). She made a little noise at the time of use (the high pressure pump ...) but it is short.On the other hand it is really design and because of its small size, it fits everywhere (even on a desk near the PC ^ ^)
Small problem: the power cable is quite short, and the waste capsules full quickly (10 capsules max.).
- The Pixie makes a great coffee, like other Nespresso models.This is the cheapest (Amazon is also very well positioned in the price).It is relatively small, but the price of a smaller tank, too, which reduced autonomy.It is also noisier than the other models. In addition, the drip tray fills up quickly, home anyway. It "flows". Leaks?
For these reasons, if it again, I would take another model Nespresso Citiz undoubtedly one as my previous one.
A question about the reliability. My Citiz died after a year and a half, so out of warranty (good to know: only labor is guaranteed for 3 years).
- Very good machine pretty quick, convenient. I appreciate his nice white light that turns red when there is more water, fast warm-up, termination automatically after qq minutes if unused .... It is small, compact and very pretty. A very good value for money.
- I know the Nespresso system since 1999 and I have personally used until 2008. I had the machine was expensive but it was impractical because of the filter need loading, emptying and cleaning. It was tedious and I therefore abandoned the system. More Nespresso capsules were very expensive, environmentally unsound and impractical to obtain. You must either go through the Internet Club - in which case you must order at least 50 capsules to get the free shipping - or go directly Nespresso boutique - which are few and far from home and still in town, which is a drag for me, because parking spaces are not easy to find and expensive.
The complaints that I have outlined against the Nespresso system are still valid, however, since competitors have market caps compatible, I am interested in this new system.
So I found this machine Krups I first tested in store. I find it quite pretty with its modern design. Manufacturing quality ("Swiss") looks good. In addition, the price and a reduction of 60 euros via the website lesparrains.fr have finally convinced me. I ordered this machine from Amazon because the price it was the lowest I've found. I will not return to service quality Amazon still never read all fields ...
The machine has been delivered to me one day before the scheduled date. The packaging machine is convenient to open and can be reused for future transportation possible.
I also confirm that the machine is manufactured with care and comes with 16 Nespresso capsules in order to test the coffees that we like. Installation is easy is fast.
In actual use, I just blame the machine to be a little too noisy. Otherwise making a coffee is quick and easy. Simply insert the capsule in the top of the machine and close it. Then pressing one of two buttons (Espresso or Lungo) and the machine takes care of everything. At the opening of the lever which has been used to position the capsule, the latter falls into the tray automatically transparent.
In addition, for a stunning LEDs light up in red behind the transparent tray when the water tank is almost empty. Moreover, this practice is subject to complete and replace.
The cafes are usually pretty good, but I much prefer the capsules of the brand or Gold Casino. Those of Nespresso are mostly too acrid and unpleasant metallic flavor all because of the aluminum packaging, which is also anti-ecological. That competing brands are plastic and work perfectly with these machines. Their coffee is much tastier and are procured almost anywhere cheaper prices.
