Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've had this machine for a month and so far it's been fantastic. I love lattes and mistos and having to go to Starbucks every morning just isn't something I want to do. So, armed with my espresso beans, my white mocha sauce and my Keurig, I've been able to make my favorite drinks from the comfort of my home! What I've found so far: PROS: - The froth, though not very dense, is great. It wand will froth 6 ounces of soy milk in less than 45 seconds. - The warming plate gets hot! - I turn the machine off when I'm done so warming it back up takes less than 30 seconds before the green light turns on - The water level is visible so you know when you need to add more without moving the machine CONS: - The warming plate gets hot! It's a little too hot in my opinion but I don't use it. - The water reservoir MUST be all the way down. When it arrives, it'll look like it's in place. It isn't. Gently push it down. TIPS: - Take the steam wand apart and rinse after each use. Don't try to rush it like Starbucks and just blow steam through it. There will be left over milk in the wand. It comes apart easily, wipe down the attached wand and purge it with steam for 1-3 seconds and then run the parts (2) under warm water. Set them on the drip try to dry and you're ready to go next time! (in picture) - More water seems to create better steam. I refill the reservoir when it's less than half full.
