lakeland Bean to Cup Coffee Machine Black With Keep Warm Function

I like the small footprint and it makes a good cup of coffee, assembly/disassembly is easy and water filling requires a steady hand but is easy to do. Plus a better price on Amazon than directly from Lakeland themselves. I am a tea drinker who likes the odd cup of coffee, if I were a serious coffee drinker I might go for something with a larger jug.

Fantastic piece of kit. I was a bit sceptical seeing as how cheap it was compared to others on the market but it really is a cracking machine. So easy to use, take apart and clean. It does say it makes 4 cups but that would very much be 4 small cups, if you drink a normal sized mug you will get a max of two mugs but thats perfect for me. All in all i couldn't recommend this machine enough.

I bought this to help reduce my Nespresso compatible capsule waste - but I was soon looking for alternatives! The first thing a bean to cup coffee machine has to do is grind the coffee - this Lakeland machine failed at this first hurdle! I found an unacceptably high proportion of my Lavazza Crema e Aroma coffee beans had only been cut in two pieces! So, I purchased a coffee grinder, which improved the coffee quality no end. However, I found cleaning the machine was a bit of a bind, which would have been bearable if the grinder had been more efficient - but as I was pre-grinding the beans the machine had lost it's usefulness. So now I bought a cafetiere! Grinder and cafetiere together cost less than half the price of the Lakeland machine - Lot easier to use and much better coffee. At the end I was using the Lakeland machine about once a week. Now I use the grinder and cafetiere every day - - no brainer.

Very well made coffee machine. Worked very well. However it only produced 1.5 cups. Thought it was more! Request refund.

I am not a coffee or tea drinker but wanted a small coffee machine so when l have guests l can give them a good cup of coffee, this machine grinds your beans too & is the perfect size to pop in a cupboard & get out when needed, a great purchase

The machine is fine although a nightmare to clean for one cup of coffee. I had a faulty melitta bean to cup and opted for a refund. Purchased this machine and although it is ideal for one to two mugs of coffee it takes a strip of three parts to clean properly. I’d rather a throw away filter to save this but you have to clean the reusable filter after every use. The first ten or so uses you could taste the plastic materials in the coffee. Other than that the machine is compact and easy to use. Only other complaint is the constant standby flashing light on the front. In a dark room it’s like a blue strobe light. Annoying.

Have to say I agree with the cleaning chore but none the less an impressive bit of kitchen ware and it only occupies about the same space a a kettle so you could enter a bit of one upmanship and put one on your desk at work! Does come apart easily to facilitate no fuss cleaning, best done under the tap in the sink I found. An impressive innovative introduction to Bean-to-Cup

great addition to my kitchen. looks very smart .Easy to use, and clean. perfect. Thank you
