Purchased from Whole Latte Love / IMPORTIKA in March 2009 – STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY
After about 5 months of usage the machine started leaking water from underneath. I called in for warranty service and was advised to drop off the machine to my local authorized repair center. The repair center has replaced parts and charged $100.00 stating this is not warranty covered. They have never informed me until after the fact. Apart from that, they also damaged front panel, all scratched up and said that I did it during time I was using it. I contacted Whole Latte Love and GAGGIA distributor – IMPORTIKA. Importika denied warranty, said it was normal for any superautomatic machine to leak water after few months – part of wear and tear. I was also told that it might have been due to me incorrectly attaching milk island. I don’t own or ever used milk island. Tech could not believe when I told him that.
Importika/Whole Latte Love initially said they would look into the matter and never did anything, never contacted me back.

-The machine makes good espresso. Steamer is rather weak and the frothing attachment is horrible. If you are serious coffee drinker, like lattes, know anything about microfoam and would like to make it with this machine’s steaming ability – FORGET IT (no, it’s not that I don’t know how). You can make hot milk with some foam on the top.
-Coffee beans container is not air tight around the inlet for ground coffee, as a result air gets it and contributes to coffee getting stale if left for longer period.
-Click wheel works good.
-Constantly need to refill water container, empty drip tray
-Only 10.5 g max ground coffee per cup. Perfect shot has 7 g. So not even close to make 2 shots once, unless you hit button twice to make 2 separate shots.

WARNING: I would strong avoid buying any espresso machine (or anything for that matter) from Whole Latte Love or Importika (pretty much same company). Do your own research. Very deceptive business practices. They would not even post my review. Ordinary review, nothing inappropriate or anything like that. Also, Whole Latte Love advertised full warranty (not limited) but would not honor the agreement.

Please recommend a reliable Espresso Machine under £200 which makes nice creamy coffee.?
I was going to get a Gaggia Cubik, but have seen some reviews and a lot of them gaggia espresso coffee machines say that it tends to break down a lot.I know they are sold on the net and on ebay. My question is about what model under £200 people would recommend from personal experience, which produces a nice crema, and doesn't break down after a couple of months. Please don't just post lists of machines - I can find these myself! Thanks
