  I don't know much about coffee makers but!
  To start, I give it 5/5 because:

  1) It doesn't make as much noise as they say, only if you leave it without water do you actually hear the pressure pump.

  2) It has plenty of space in the water tank, enough for 4 cups of coffee (cappuccino).

  3) The shelf for the cup that you place on top is adjustable in 3 height levels (very nice!).

  4) It is at a very good price (60 euros) in my opinion.

  5) It has the option for the coffee to come out quite hot and maintain its temperature, or to be at the temperature of the water you have added at that moment (e.g., cold or at room temperature).

  6) Ability to adjust the amount of water in the coffee cup (very practical for me).

  I don't know if I should mention anything else, but I am very satisfied!

  I have it for 1 year. It hasn't had any problems.
  I bought an adapter and I use Nespresso capsules that have more flavors and options. I have used it extensively and it is like new. Really value for money

  It is very elegant. It makes good coffee with the original capsules, but with the rest, sometimes it gets blocked and doesn't work.
  However, the price-quality ratio is satisfactory!

  It's great for its price. Just remember to remove the capsule as soon as the distillation is finished because if you leave it inside for several hours, the drawer does not open easily. You should let it work with the old capsule for a while until it warms up and then the drawer opens

  The coffee maker is very good value for money. Great variety in different types of coffee, tea, and hot chocolates. It's worth every euro!

  It makes very good coffee, it has nothing to envy from other machines with more expensive capsules.
  Exceptional design.
  But, the board broke, the pump broke, the drawer broke...

  Broke before time
  Milk was leaking from the base
  Took it for repair due to warranty and they told me there is no problem
  I put it in operation again and milk was still leaking from the base
  Tragic purchase
  And the capsules are very expensive

  I had it in red and it broke. Unfortunately for me, I had accidents that caused the nylon to detach from the capsules and it took in two times chocolate and coffee and the device ended up broken.

  I bought it again in gray (for no reason) and I am equally satisfied and now twice as careful. The only reason I am deducting a star is the noise and the difficulty in cleaning the water tank.

  Classic Dolce Gusto machine that finally has an automatic water meter. It holds much more water in its container compared to the old version I had. I hope it will last for years. It could have a capsule holder like the old version had in its packaging as a gift.

  After 1 year of use, the power button sank and had difficulty opening and closing the handle. At 1.5 years, it did not heat up as it should and the circuit board had to be replaced! While it is functioning, it is good, but I would prefer something else!

  The damage that occurred to the exhaust during the warranty period was in the head and the "unfortunate" thing is that in order to sort out the warranty, you will have to go through a lot of trouble.
  It's better to pay a little more than to go through this inconvenience, unless you don't care

  Nice device. Nice coffee. Simple and understandable operation. The capsules have instructions on which scale to use, but you can experiment and make the coffee better according to your taste. It would be wonderful to have more coffee options in supermarkets instead of constantly ordering from various websites

  I have exactly this machine for 10 years. I have changed 2 identical automatic devices. I bought the first one for 25 euros with a gift of 12 capsules and a metal case for capsules. The second one for 35 euros with a gift of 24 capsules and 2 cups. Now I need to buy a new machine again.... It costs 128 euros with a 50 percent discount, which means 64 euros.... for laughs...

  It makes a lot of noise to the point where you think you have a compressor at home. At first, I thought I was doing something wrong, but in the end, it's just how it's built. It's a shame for the 50€ I spent. The coffee is okay, capsules are good, so you can't really judge the machine based on that. Nevertheless, it's tasty.

  It is a very good machine, the capsules are relatively affordable compared to capsules from other companies. The beverages are satisfactory and the coffee maker is very easy to use. Although there are other coffee makers with different types of capsules, they are even easier to use, but they have much more expensive capsules than this one and significantly less variety, for example, Tassimo. The huge advantage is the variety of beverages, as it is not limited only to the capsules of the same company, but there are many different companies, so the variety is enormous. What I didn't like so much is that the capsules have too much plastic (they are made of 100% plastic) and there is no way to recycle them, which is not environmentally friendly. Overall, it is a very good coffee maker that is worth buying for someone who wants a wide variety and affordable capsules, although it could definitely be improved in some areas, such as the quality of the capsule construction, etc.

  From capsule machines I have tried (nespresso and illy), it is the best. Simple and easy to use and the coffees in my opinion are great. You can also make other drinks that you can't with the other mentioned brands

  When you come from the classic espresso machine with loose coffee, you understand the difference in the time it takes you to make coffee and the cleaning you save. I also ordered an adapter to use Nespresso capsules so that I have all the options :-)

  The machine cost 52€.
  It heated up immediately.
  Little noise.
  Fast preparation of all coffee.
  I used cappuccino from Starbucks and it was decent. Like drinking in a café. I always drink sweet coffee but I tried it plain for the first time and it was very pleasant. It's not the best coffee of your life but for its price, it's very decent. I will come back once I try other flavors. But for 52€, if it lasts 1-2 years, it will be very good. Get it!

  In relation to Nespresso, I liked the huge quantity of coffee that a lungo capsule can produce, which makes it quite economical, and the relatively low noise.

  Small, beautiful, works like a star. Coffee adjusted according to the instructions comes out perfect. But even with your own settings, it will satisfy you. It's all plastic, not like the old Krups ones, but it remains of good quality. Very economical for what it does and compatible with reusable capsules. Semi-automatic, which means you don't burn yourself trying to achieve the right quantities. A very powerful purchase.

  Very good coffee machine, it is indeed mini me! Compared to the Tassimo Happy that I had before, it is more compact. I chose it because it has many coffee options and its price was affordable. Unfortunately, Tassimo doesn't have many options and I wasn't satisfied with the capsules I tried. Also, its capsules are more economical than Tassimo's. I hope Dolce Gusto will prove itself over time. One parenthesis, because it is an old model, there are packages available in the market that include a 20 euro coupon for capsule purchases. The coupons are expired, but there is no problem because you can contact the company and they will exchange them for you with a different date, as they did with me.

  Excellent and wonderful coffee in capsule form always. Quiet, economical, and very well-made. With the passage of time, it will definitely show. Apart from that, for me who likes a lot of different types of coffee, I highly recommend it without a second thought. Just know that the capsules are not the most economical option available. However, if you are a huge fan of espresso, it's better to go to a Nespresso coffee shop because they have cheaper capsules and are better in that specific aspect.

  It is good for its price. Quality construction and fast, but as for the coffee, I am not completely satisfied with the ones I have tried. I also have the Tassimo coffee machine, and if I compare them, I would tell you without hesitation to go for Tassimo. The coffee there is far better. The only negative thing about Tassimo is that in Greece the options are limited, but still, for me, that's where the road leads for coffee machines.

  I have had the machine since summer and I believe that it truly deserves every € for someone who wants to have a machine to make a quick cup of coffee.

  In comparison to a Nespresso machine, its pros and cons are:

  + Good coffee
  + Ability to make beverages (Cappuccino, Hot Chocolate, etc.) - especially if you order from abroad, Twix capsules are out of this world

  - Expensive capsules that are rarely on sale (except for Starbucks)
  - Limited variety of coffees

  In conclusion, I believe that it is the ultimate machine for someone who has found a coffee brand (e.g. Buondi) and wants to have the ability to make a beverage (e.g. Chocochino) or has an espresso machine and wants a beverage machine as well.

  I bought the machine. It is a bad machine, not all capsules work, they are specific and expensive. Terrible coffee, I tried to make it work by using coffee beans, a grinder to grind the coffee, and a reusable silicone capsule. The coffee is of good quality, but the machine dispenses it too much. It is undrinkable and does not even produce crema on top! It is better to buy a Krups machine for €60, it will satisfy you greatly! I have now bought a Saeco from Germany and I will not deal with such commercial machines again, but if you want something economical, go for Krups!

  With six months of operation and not daily use, some "pump" let's say, that pressurizes the water, broke down. Since then, it has been in service for 18 days and I am waiting for news from them. One plus is that it has a 10-year warranty from the manufacturer, but take the egg and cut it.

  Satisfactory machine, I tried several coffee flavors it had. Unfortunately, it broke within 1.5 years, the pump doesn't work, and it's not worth repairing it due to the cost. Most likely, my next purchase will be a Nespresso.

  I have tried most of the Dolce Gusto machines on the market and the Mini me is possibly the most value for money.

  Bought it for 50 euros and with a coupon for capsules offer for 20 euros...almost free considering it's automatic. I got two, one for home and one for the office.

  You choose the amount of water you want and it stops as soon as the coffee is ready.

  The only negative thing about it is that you have to take out the bin to put in water (unlike others where you just lift the lid and pour) and it's good to support it and lean it against a wall because it's not as heavy and sturdy and it can cause some shaking while it's working.

  In the 1.5 years of moderate to no use (4-5 coffees per week), it rusted at the point where the capsule holder with the magnet is placed inside the machine... even though I cleaned it regularly, it STILL RUSTED!!!!! I went to leave it for repair at the store where I bought it and they told me they would send it to the official service center, and after a week they informed me that something needs to be replaced (unfortunately, I didn't remember exactly what) at a cost of 22 euros (purchased for 50€).....! When I asked why I should pay for a material defect, the answer was that it is not covered by the warranty and that other customers had the same or similar issues... when I asked what we could do about it because I find it unacceptable to pay for a material defect, the answer was "we suggest that in your next coffee machine purchase, you avoid this particular company"......

  The only thing that saves them is that their machines are compatible with capsules with nice flavors
