I like it. Though I haven't used any other coffee machine to compare it with but I am happy with the results. The setup is minimal, turnout time is impressive. You get your coffee within 3-4 minutes of starting the machine. Cleaning is easy. The steel body isn't very high quality so the blotches stay if you don't clean it regularly. Overall, I think it's a little overpriced for the kind of machine it is but works well.

Defective model. Light blinks five times and switches off, indicating that there is no water, even though the container is filled with water. This is a common error with this product. In the western markets, company is replacing the product upon receiving the complaint. BUT, CUSTOMER SERVICE IN INDIA DOES NOT EXIST. Hamilton Beach's Customer Support number listed on their website does not work. You cannot log a complaint through their website, as the complaint form errors and does not let you submit the complaint. There is no other way of reaching their so called 'customer support'. Buy this product only if you do not want any service later on.

Its been 3 months since I have purchased it for 2650/-(Best Deal).It is much costlier on other websites. Just go for it if you plan to make coffee for 1-2 people as its capacity is 300ml(2 small cups or 1 Mug). The coffee maker is very easy to clean and makes best coffee same to the standards of CCD or Barista. You need to use ground coffee powder as you cannot use normal instant coffee powder, like Nescafe , Bru etc.Lavazza is one of the best Italian coffee that I would like to suggest. If you are not able to afford kindly prefer brands like Baarbara, Dark Forest(you can find in CCD for sale), Pure and Sure(Organic Powder) and there are many brands available. You also need to buy Creamer or flavoured powder(Coffee Mate) to mix with black coffee. Kindly avoid milk or cream which will dilute the essence.

I purchased this product about three weeks back and have stalled on writing a review till I got a chance to use it enough. The pros and cons are below. Pros - Great build and the metal frame is easy to clean - They give you two scoops which I find adds a nice touch to the machine - The coffee brewing process is very simple and takes about 2 minutes in total - The adjustable stand at the bottom of the unit helps me with my travel mug and my regular coffee cups for daily use Cons - It's not going to satisfy someone that is looking for temperature sensitive coffee brewing because it has only two settings and thats it - The last dispensing cup tends to retain moisture and drips a bit leaving water stains but its not a serious con just something I think they could have engineered a little better For the price and the kind of delivered product I have to say this is a great purchase for anyone looking to get into coffee brewing.
