What owners single out
Review 1 flags milk frothing failure and noise/slowness within the first week, directly matching the lowest-scoring buyer aspects of milk frothing reliability and machine speed.
In their words
“I am quite impressed with the quality of the coffee that the machine produces. The coffee is full bodied and (usually) not overly bitter with a nice crema. The milk froths well without being watery. The machine is extremely easy to setup and use - I love that my six year old son can make me a coffee with a couple of button presses.”

“The machine has been sent back to the seller since milk cannot be frothed properly already in the first week! Really disappointed. Totally did not expect that the quality of Saeco decreases so much. Besides, it was louder and slower than other competitors.”
