Philips Saeco PoemiaManual Espresso machine

my ever reliable saeco poemia, I have been using this for the past three years and have no problems. Best espresso shots in your own home

Great design follows its practicality and functionality. I was surprsied that Poemia makes much better or tastier, if you will, espresso with the same coffee compared to my "old" machine. It is my morning joy and ecpresso ritual.

Replaced previous machine with this one, and I love it. It was less expensive (got it on special for less than 200$ last year), its light weight, easy to use, and takes great coffee, better than my previous machine that had cost me 3 times the price ! Highly recommend!

The espresso is very good, the milk foaming capability is more than adequate. An excellent product for the price.

This is a good espresso machine. It works great. My only issue is that the space to put my coffee cup is not high enough. I have to use a smaller bowl first and then pour my coffee into my coffee cup. And the creama isn't always great. So I guess there is so room for improvements, but all in all for the price it's the best machine I could find I think.

The metal screen that sits inside the receiver for the basket keeps falling off. The screw stays in place, but the screen falls off. Made on a Friday.

The machine broke after one month of use. Bravo! I guess I'm just starting a long process to have it functionnal again and a long series of adventures to make it work.
