Known problems › Espresso & coffee machines
3 sourced reports, with what to check before you buy. Each one links to the page it was reported on.
The buyer states the machine started making watery coffee and stopped working within a month of purchase, and the repair was not completed after two months.
What to check. A formal consumer complaint records a brew-unit failure shortly after purchase; check warranty/service response time before relying on after-sales support.

Owner reports the machine stopped frothing milk after ~3 months; cleaning the system and disassembling the nozzle gave zero result, and a replacement carafe failed the same way within a month.
What to check. The milk carafe is repeatedly named as the weak point; expect frothing to degrade and plan for replacement or manual frothing.

Owner reports the grounds-container-full warning triggers with only three coffees' worth of grounds; the same review notes the machine runs out of water or beans mid-brew.
What to check. The grounds sensor can false-trigger; empty the tray when prompted rather than trusting the count.
