5.0 out of 5 stars Stylish and easy to use machine that makes great coffee
I really like this product. Using the new capsules makes for no mess at all.The machine is ready in minutes and if you want a quick espresso its so so simple.I tend to pull a couple of shots before switching to the steam function for foaming the milk.It gets up to temperature pretty quickly. I find it takes a good 2 mins to get the milk up to the right temp.It makes good foam and I can make better drinks at home than places like starbucks.It doesn't beat the coffee shops I frequent but then it wont. A decent coffee house that uses $14,000 machines, good grinders, excellent beans and knowledgeable barristas will win everytime.But for that quick fix at home its great.Its a small unit and it looks great on my kitchen counter. People comment on how it looks all the time. It looks more expensive than it is.My first recommendation is that if you want to switch back to pulling a shot after steaming milk do not just press the cup button else it will take a while to cool down to the temp needed to pull a shot.Instead press the cup button and immediately press the steamer button. This will expell hot steam through the wand and cool down faster. I dont think this is noted in the booklet but its a great feature.Another recommendation is that you clean the wand right after steaming the milk. Its best to keep that as clean as possible and is easier to clean right after its been used than later on when its all sticky and clogged.All in all a great machine for the money. Totally recommended and believe me I am a coffee snob and will only drink great coffee.
1.0 out of 5 stars Unreliable and disappointing
When turned on, the machine takes some time to heat -- and then goes straight into a red blip mode under the ! logo. What is odd is that all instructions are followed by the book. It's not like you have many options on what to do when starting the machine. So you switch on and off and restart anywhere between 3 to 7 times to actually get it into the blue mode in the central big button - which is ready for coffee. VERY disappointing and time consuming. The defect was clear and the process to get the machine replaced was awful: slow, confusing, repetitive and frankly below standards. But the coffee is good, when it gets out.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great espresso with no hassle
Simple to use with perfect espresso draws every time. The capsule system works great and reduces the hassle of using ground espresso. This does come at the expense of less control over the brewing and less selection of individual coffees that you have using ground espresso and possibly increased cost per cup. Then again in a side by side comparison the pod machine did as well or better then the ground espresso unit and was more consistent and less messy. Also tried the Nespresso system which was nice and offered more coffee capsule options, but the Illy machine produced better tasting espresso despite trying different coffee types in the Nesptesso unit. Also the Illy machine produced espresso that was identical to the draws from the ground espresso machine which wasn’t the case with the Nespresso unit. The milk frother works great and clean up is a breeze. The machine is well made for the price and doesn’t take up much counter space. Unless you are OCD about your espresso this is a great way to go.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great machine for the price!
So the machine itself is very simple and easy to use. Only complaints are the water compartment is hard to remove to refill, I wish you could just open a compartment to add more water. Also it doesn’t seem to pull the shot as hot as I would want. Lastly the steam wand doesn’t have enough power in my opinion, I would prefer a normal steam wand not panarello. Overall for the price this is a great machine for a casual espresso drinker or first machine.The iperespresso pods are expensive but make it simple to make espresso at home.
5.0 out of 5 stars This stylish machine could be the catalyst for world peace
While coffee snobs are probably scoffing at this little beauty you need to remember two things: first, they paid thousands of dollars for their equipment that they spend hours of their life roasting and grinding beans for, and two, when they finally fire up their espresso machine to make a cup there's a huge mess to clean up.I'm more than happy to trade off a smidge of authenticity, a smidge of freshness and a smidge of higher quality bean for the simple fact that I can turn this baby on and have an incredibly tasty shot of espresso in my hands in about 60 seconds - and that includes the amount of time it takes to throw away the pod. And yes, it's uber tasty. All this has done is create problems with my wife, though, because I've become an espresso fiend. It's so easy and quick that I find myself spending all of my free time drinking these beautiful little blasts of bitter coffee goodness instead of doing chores around the house. And don't even get me started on a shot of dark roast topped with frothed whole milk that is fresh from the farm a few miles up the valley from my house... If that isn't the perfect breakfast I don't know what is. There's a Tim Hortons about a two minute drive from me and I haven't visited it once since this wonderful little angel was set down on my countertop, so I guess one other negative is that it's hurting the local economy.
1.0 out of 5 stars Failed after a few months
The unit is good (not great) while working. The espresso it makes is very good. Unfortunately, after only a few months it started beeping and flashing the warning light rapidly. The manual indicates it needs to be descaled. Did this but it did not resolve. Descaled 3 more times and switched to distilled water, and the unit malfunctions so much it is unusable.
Back to my old favourite
I had one of these previously and changed to another model last purchase but didn’t last as long and didn’t look as beautiful so swiftly went back to this model. What’s not to love?
Excelente compra
Llego muy rápido !!! Muy recomendable
Meine Erfahrung mit der illy X7.1
Mein erster so positiver Eindruck der X7.1 IPERESPRESSO von illy hat sich weiterhin bestätigt. Wir sind von der Maschine, Ihrem mega genialen Design und dem wunderbaren Espresso restlos begeistert. Das Design der Maschine erinnert an eine hochwertige Barista Maschine beim Italiener um die Ecke, nur dass die X7.1 super kompakt alles vereint und von der Größe perfekt ist für den Normal-Haushalt. Die Bedienung der Maschine ist sehr einfach und in der Bedienungsanleitung sehr gut beschrieben. Man kann also nach kurzer Einlese-Zeit direkt mit dem Kaffeegenuss starten.Espresso:Die speziellen Kapseln für die X7 sind etwas größer als die üblichen Kaffeekapseln die man aus dem Handel kennt. Der Preis der Kaffeekapseln ist mit 0,47 Cent pro Kapsel sehr stolz und man muss sich überlegen ob es einem das Wert ist. Man bekommt dafür einen perfekt gebrühten Espresso, mit einer wunderbaren Crema, die sich lange hält. Ich als echter Espresso-Genießer kann sagen dass mich dieses Ergebnis und der Geschmack überzeugt haben.Das Aufheizen der Maschine geht sehr schnell und durch ein akustisches Signal wird man über die Einsatzbereitschaft der Maschine informiert. Das Einsetzen der Kapsel in den Siebträger ist einfach und man kann nicht viel Falsch machen.Cappuccino:Was ich persönlich richtig toll finde ist die integrierte Dampfdüse am Gerät mit der man einen perfekten Milchschaum zaubern kann und sich eben auch einen Cappuccino oder Latte Macciato machen kann. Was im Lieferumfang nicht enthalten ist, ist ein spezielles Kännchen um den Milchschaum darin zu kochen. Wenn man als Milchschaum zubereiten möchte, drückt man die Düsen-Taste am Gerät und das Aufheizen startet. Nach wenigen Sekunden ist auch die Düse bereit und man kann starten. Man hält die Dampfdüse in ein seitlich gekipptes Kännchen und schäumt die Milch auf. Es klappt super und man erhält einen wunderbaren, fluffigen Milchschaum.FAZIT:Mein Fazit zur X7.1 ist ganz klar - ich bin überzeugt und werde sie nicht mehr hergeben. Für den normalen Haushalt ist die IPERESPRESSO die perfekte kompakte Espressomaschine mit genialem Design, super Espresso-Ergebnisse und zusätzlich noch die Möglichkeit Milchschaum für Cappuccino und co. zu zaubern. Die Kapseln sind etwas teuer, dafür bekommt man aber perfekten, italienischen Kaffeegenuss Zuhause. Den Kaufpreis mit ca. 199 Euro finde ich für die Vielfalt an Möglichkeiten angemessen.Negativ:- teure Kaffeekapseln- der Wassertank lässt sich sehr schwer entnehmen- das Netzkabel ist viel zu kurzFakten:- Kaffeemenge einstellbar- 1l Wassertank- Pumpendruck mit 15 bar- Tassenwärmer auf der Maschine- automatische Abschaltfunktion nach 30 Minuten
Spitting little alien.
We bought this adorable espresso maker in August 2015 and the wand started flying off when frothing less than a year later. Our favourite is the lungo but the pods sputter and spit and spew espresso all over the kitchen. I'm done with this irritating little alien. We are switching to Nespresso! Btw, contacting Illy does no good and they don't seem to acknowledge that Canada exists and finding pods is a nightmare!! Great tasting coffee though.
Apparently it's great!
We bought it for my brother, so I haven't honestly seen it. But according to him, it's awesome!
