Rowenta 2405837 Stainless Steel Carafe, Lid Not Included Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received the Rowenta Coffee Maker and was very excited as I have admired this design for a few years.

Unfortunately, I should have paid attention to the other product reviews, because this machine, which is beautifully designed, solid to the touch, and simple to use, just seems to have faulty electrical circuitry.

The first time I ran plain water through it, it worked perfectly. I announced to my husband that we were having a fresh cup of coffee from our wonderful new coffee maker, and the water just sat in the coffee maker despite unplugging the machine, turning it on and off, etc. I made coffee using my old coffee maker.

The next day, I thought I would give it one more try... This time, lovely HOT, coffee, easy to pour, easy to use... I was ecstatic!

The next day, tried making coffee again. The coffee maker on light lit up... but no gurgling and no coffee! I unplugged it in a huf, went to do some other chores, came and plugged it in again, and then it worked!

Today, sadly, the coffee maker has again refused to work!

Sorry, I tried, but this machine has too much a mind of its own, and Rowenta should pay more attention to the INSIDE of the machine, NOT just the design.
Very disappointed, you will get better performance from a $19.00 machine from your local drugstore!

Tanita HD351 Digital Scale with Memory Function Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am a big guy (currently 403lbs) was 421 a few months ago and have been slowly going down each week, this scale is SO accurate, if I get on and off 4-5 times in a row down to the .2 its still solid, then when I go to the healthclub and use their $2000 professional scale it reads the same numbers as the home scale.
Again I am closer to the top limits of this scale (440 top weight) yet it feels solid and doesn't flex or feel "cheap" or like it is going to break or anything.
5 different user buttons along with each of those 5 inputs having the last weight viewable for reference and a large readout and stepon plate (I wear a 14 EEEEE shoe and have no problems) make this scale worth buying at any cost.
Bill :)

Saeco S-TRP-ST Talea Ring Plus Super Automatic Espresso Machine Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I owned a Jura Impressa S90 for 6 years at a daily rate of 8 espressos . No problems , I sold it to upgrade it for a professional like machine.. Bad decision, The Talea Ring Plus has a beautiful design and is relatively small for a full automatic, but...
After 4 months it was leaking (faulty 0 rings ), it wastes more water that it goes into the coffee, it is very high maintenance to clean (new filter every 2 weeks, cleaning tablet every 3 weeks, descaling twice in 3 months), but most important if you have a problem forget about Saeco customer service:rude, incompetent and they don't return emails or calls, so you better have a good relationship with your retailer to enlist their help. After the repair of my NEW machine, Saeco lost my original box and protective pads, they scratched the led display and plate and the serial number sticker was missiing...
After 8 single coffees you must empty the grounds and the drip tray! the container is flooded with water.
What about the coffee? Just OK , not any better that one could get with a machine one third of the price.
If you are thinking superautomatic forget Saeco( at least this model)

Bodum Bistro Double-Wall Insulated Glass Espresso Mugs, Set of 2 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My complaint about my two-ounce Bodum espresso cups was that they didn't have a handle. No such problem here. These cups are a perfect size for a double-shot of espresso. They are a perfect compliment to our Super Automatic Espresso maker. The only downside to Bodum cups like this is that they look much bigger than a regular double-espresso cup because they are dual-walled. But, your espresso will stay hot and they look VERY nice.
They are quite delicate, but have worked well in the dishwasher and have held up well overall. I broke one after dropping it, but can't blame that on the product. I'm certain I will buy a replacement.

Bring a unique and trend-forward look to the table with this set of two glass espresso shot mugs. Handcrafted of borosilicate glass--the same material used to make scientific lab equipment--the pair of mugs provides exceptionally durable, temperature-safe use that holds both hot and cold drinks at their optimal temperature longer. The walls of each vessel sport two layers of clear glass, creating a dramatic optical illusion of liquid suspended within. The two-layer design also resists heat and prevents condensation, leaving the mugs comfortable to hold and safe for placement on any tabletop or counter. Even more, the handsome mugs feature a smooth, slightly flared design with a generously sized handle--perfect for sipping espresso shots immediately after you pull them. Winner of the prestigious European IF Design Award, the mugs offer cloud-resistant, dishwasher- and microwave-safe use. Each espresso mug has a 4.7-ounce capacity. A one-year limited warranty covers the set.

Editor's Note: Because the mugs are mouth blown, each one may have slight variations in height, thickness, and weight. Bodum recommends using care when placing ice into the mugs to avoid fracturing the inner layer. Do not use metal spoons or place the mugs into a crowded dishwasher.
