  Bought this machine expecting great things - reasonable hope given the price tag. Very disappointed in the results. The coffee it produces is both weak (even at the max dose setting with fine grind selected) and luke warm. On the plus side the milk frother does work fairly well but the cleaning process afterwards does detract from the whole experience. All in all this is an outrageous price tag for a machine which performs so poorly. Spend your hard-earned cash on another machine!

  Had this for 5 years - had to replace steam valve after about 2 years. It now leaks somewhat but still works. I have just been devastated to discover that the coffee beans it grinds do not work through untill about 3 to 4 cups later. Unless you throw away the first 3 to 4 cups it produces each time you use it you dont get fresh ground coffee at all. The machine is a complete waste of time if you want 'fresh ground' coffee. I've been drinking day old grinds for years and wondering why it just nev ...

  We got this machine at a really good price from a Gaggia outlet. It's a recon, but it had only made 101 cups when we got it. I got it November 08, and I use it all the time. If I go away I get withdrawal symptoms. I've definitely saved money on Starbucks since we got it. It's really really easy to use.

  Don't buy for long-term it is unreliable and expensive to repair. Have had mine for 3 years and it had to be repaired once for $200 including shipping and at the second breakdown in 3.5 years another $200 including shipping. Decided to throw it in garbage rather than pay for second repair.

  The Gaggia 74877 Syncrony Compact Digital Coffee Maker is unreliable expensive to repair.
  
  Mechanically it's not sound. This product is not suitable for long-term use. I have had mine for 3 years, and it had to be repaired once, which cost $200 including shipping, and at the second breakdown in 3.5 years, it cost another $200 including shipping. I decided to throw it in the garbage rather than pay for the second repair.

  I purchased the Gaggia 74877 Syncrony compact digital coffee making machine 2 years ago, and it made a reasonable espresso and had a good milk frothing nozzle. However, after only 16 months the machine was leaking underneath and steam was pouring out of the steam knob. I contacted Gaggia who explained that it could be repaired under warranty, but if the fault was due to scale, the repair would be chargeable. I de-scaled the machine about every 2-3 months so I knew it was not due to scale. I ...

  The Gaggia 74877 Syncrony compact digital coffee maker made excellent Espresso for the first three months, then malfunctioned and even after repairs has not worked properly most notably slow coffee dispensing. I am sending it back for more repairs but would not recommend this product.

  The Gaggia Compact Digital replaces a Krups Orchestro which was a fantastic machine, however the extra controls through the digital interface make this machine a dream. The additional temperature, pre-brew, and grind controls are great. Looks wise I don't think this is a design classic like the Orchestro, but the little attention to details make this machine clearly superior! PERFECT COFFEE !!
