Good Points: Brews a great cup of coffee
Bad Points: Costs an arm and leg to get repaired (if you can get Saeco to respond). Takes constant maintenance. Having second problem in three years. First one (computer failure) cost $275.
General comments: Vitali, the writer of the first review, must work for Saeco or he just got the machine. I actually have the Vienna DeLuxe, which is almost the same machine. I've had good luck until a computer failure. It took the repair facility two months to get a replacement part, which totaled $275 or half the cost of the machine! Now I have a problem with the water not being hot enough. Do I spend another $275 or get a different machine. Emails to Saeco go unanswered and I can't find a good source of trouble shooting information or parts. The machine requires frequent maintenance to keep it going, which, for me, is not a problem. However, for the average housewife, it could be a daunting task. It is not a 'push the button and forget it' machine. I suspect most 'automatic' machines are the same. When it works, it does brew an excellent cup of coffee.

The convenience of this machine is incredible and makes brewing fast and easy. It brews a really good shot of espresso with lots of crema. It's easy to use with just the push of a button. The price is still in the range that makes it affordable for home use.
