Review: Krups Proving Satisfactory and in Demand, Steamer wand failures experience. - I ordered this Krups after returning the Saeco Aroma. I had been concerned about the frothing attachment based on the reviews. I noticed the Krups web site acknowledged redesigning the frothing attachment. I do not know if the machine delivered represents the new design or the one with which so many customers had concerns. This Krups is very similar to my mid 90's model which proved very reliable for 18 years. Based on my experience with the previous machine, the controls are intuitive. The tamping mechanism seems like over kill but it does work. The steamer works very well but I would be satisfied with a simple, permanently attached, stainless feed. Based on the experiences of other reviewers, I am attempting to be very careful removing and installing the the frothing attachment. Only time will tell if it is sufficiently durable. Based on the quality of the brew, ease of use, and performance to date, I am completely satisfied. Update: Well three months of use and the plastic frothing attachment separated from the stainless wand with surprising force. One of the three plastic prongs cracked clean off under the pressure. I had consistently cleaned the frothing attachment by steaming clear water after milk. I believe the frothing attachment was blocked despite these procedures and the pressure was sufficient to cause the plastic tang to crack. Update: After 18 months of use the steamer wand failed at the mounting point to the main body of the machine. The swivel mounting point is a plastic spout; the stainless wand threads onto the plastic spout. The plastic spout failed at the top of the thread section leaving the threaded plastic portion in the stainless frothing attachment. Based on this failure, I would recommend against buy the Krups. An 18 month service life for a home machine is unsatisfactory. Update: Upon contacting Krups, a repair was authorized. After examining the failed machine, Krups authorized a replacement. Back to recommending the machine based on the fundamental performance and features. Update: Krups has provided steamer wand replacements and verbally provided additional cleaning maintenance instructions intended to address the failure of the threaded wand seal. Based on this owners experience, the threaded collar seal will fail. Anticipated life of the thread seal is 3 months. There is no redesign pending. Krups does not have a significant history of this failure and no known redesign is pending nor is an alternate machine available in the Krups catalog that addresses this failure and provides more reliable performance. The cost of the replacement part is $17.99 and should be factored into any decision to buy this machine.
Review: FOR THE MONEY AND FEATURES FIVE STAR MACHINE! - GREAT MACHINE READ!I would like to say first that I had a very hard time choosing a espresso machine. This is the first espresso machine I have ever owned. For the money I dont know how you could expect anything more and I do not understand the bad reviews. I mean it is a three star machine compared to the high dollar machines. But for the price and features five stars. The only machines with all great reviews are $1500 +. I only used the machine for a few days and have to say the espresso is great. As for steaming milk I have had good and bad but I think its me not the machine. The nozzle I love how it is removable and can be cleaned. It is delicate but I guess you just have to be very careful with it. The main reason I purchased this machine was for the removable nozzle and I love the ratchet precise tamp. I read online that krups has a upgraded nozzle so I will can krups to see if I could get that. Finally I will try to leave a updated review in the future but until then I will be enjoying the great espresso this machine makes.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much clearance for the cups?**
A: The cup must be no taller than 3 1/4 inches or 8 cm. Tall mugs will not fit but one that is less than 3 1/4 inches will fit.

**Q: WIll it work in korea? I we have 220 V regular Voltage?**
A: I believe you will need an converter that adapts both the voltage from 110 to 220 and the physical plug itself. I have one for light conversions and it works very well. Choose the correct size for the converters' capacities.

**Q: how can i clean it? the pressure seems to be less than when we first got it**
A: Sorry, we have only had our machine for 3 months and have not noticed any changes in pressure. I do clean the screens weekly with a wet wash cloth.

**Q: does hot water touches plastic**
A: Not sure what you are asking, but water in tank goes through heating element -I assume it is heat-proof- and then flows into receptacle.

### ⭐ This is a poorly designed machine
*by J***D on June 11, 2010*

This machine was shipped to me on February 9th. By May the plastic piece on the frother had cracked and was spewing steam everywhere but through its nozzle. Taking the nozzle apart, even gently proved disastrous. The plastic used in the nozzle of the frother is cheap and apparently not strong enough for the steam and temperature it must endure. When taking it apart, a piece of it fell off in my hand. The espresso making functionality lasted only a bit longer. Even after taking all the required steps to take pieces of it apart as described in the manual for cleaning, I still had horrible leaking where the espresso was ratcheted into the machine. I would not recommend anyone purchase this machine. After my experience with this purchase, I will never buy another item from Krups again. At the time of this writing, the machine sits on a shelf in my garage where I may decided to take it apart one day and examine further its design deficiencies. I have since moved onto a Nespresso Citi machine (made by DeLonghi). The convenience and quality are acceptable. The frother that you can purchase with the Citi is fantastic, and judging by the design, there is no way it will break under proper use. I intend to use this machine until I can afford to build an actual coffee bar in my home with a plumbed industrial quality espresso machine and grinder. With regards to the XP5240 - DO NOT BUY.
