So damn sad
Bought the machine from Woolworths and OMG we just loved it! For about two weeks, then it wouldn't heat up, bitter horrible coffee and the froth, er well, very disappointed.
Worked it through with Caffitaly help line - absolutely wonderful people there I was impressed with how helpful they were. Returned the machine and got a replacement. All good for about 3 weeks and then, here we go again!!! :-(
There's never been a problem with the folks at Caffitaly or Woolworths, but I'd honestly have been happy to pay twice as much plus for a reliable, basic machine not made in China. Which is where we're at now.

Good while it lasts
The S22 makes great caps, there is no doubt about that, but I have experienced three problems. Problem 1) the unit stop heating up so I rang customer support and told me it's faulty, so I exchanged it to Woolies. (2) The milk frother stopped sucking so I replaced the o-ring on the brown stem which fixed it (3) Sometimes the machine will get into a mode where the control buttons freezes/crashes and it doesn't heat up and there's nothing you can do but do the secret factory reset procedure that I learnt from customer support. I use this machine on average 5 times a week and I read the manual and follow the instructions properly. It's a great unit which I used to brag about but now I keep quiet. Durability is the issue with these units.

WARNING TO USERS: Do NOT let the water jug at the back run dry as this will cause the machine to go in a stupid mode where you cannot get it back to working. It's the same as a computer that will no longer boot up.
If it were possible to give this machine had a firmware update, I would have done so from day one The microprocessor is not reliable and freezes all too frequently. Makes me very annoyed when it is 9p... Read more

Brilliant for the price
I am an avid coffee drinker. And I am quite fussy about coffee. I mainly drink cappuccinos and this machine makes great caps! When Hubby suggested this machine, I was quite skeptical. Now I'm glad we purchased it and we now don't need to buy our daily cap at the caffe anymore, this makes a really nice cup. I've also made hot chocolate for my kids, lovely. I used the latte setting and added an extra shot of hot choc using the espresso button. Nice and frothy.
Easy to use, simply put the milk tub into the fridge between uses. Fast, efficient. ...Read more
You get a couple of mugs out of one milk fill. Nice froth too. Quite a lot, actually. Edit: my machine started out making warm coffee, then over the course of a week increased the temperature to hot. Not sure what happened there, but now the coffee is nice and hot. Maybe it needed running in? Also, I use the latte button and add an extra shot of espresso for a mug size cap. There is no difference in froth between latte setting and cap setting, if you like lattes this might be something to think about. Personal preference: I prefer the green Colombian select coffee. So that's what I used.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

It's excellent
I love this coffee machine, it's really very nice and very easy to clean. Never had a problem with it, I used to go every day to the shops to get a coffee, now I don't go anymore. I got it for half price from Woolworth and have warranty as well.

Great machine while it works
Had a machine for maybe three weeks used it every day and then it stopped working. Spoke to customer service which are great it was needing to be replaced we came down to after doing all the steps. Had the machine swapped over this time it only lasted not even a week.

Automatic coffee pod value for money machine
Fully automatic coffee machine using pods, at an excellent price. Comes complete with milk froth container. Press a button and machine dispenses, cappuccino, hot Choc, tea, hot choc with auto milk option. Looks similar to Nespressos but at a fraction of the price. Easy cleaning too. Press a button and coffee dispenser rinses. Same with milk spout. Makes an excellent cup of Cappucino with thick, foamy milk froth. Coffee creama looks great too. Uses Caffitaly, Map, Gloria Jeans and Woolies brand of pods. Good quality coffee, easily available at the supermarkets. Upgraded from the previous Caffitaly models. Very happy so far. Descaling advice will be automatically generated.

Before you pack this unit up to return it, you HAVE TO call customer support to get the reset procedure because it will restart your machine. Although I have forgotten the reset sequence, It's a very ... Read more
simple procedure and definitely worth a shot. The number is (02) 9846-0307. When they give you the reset procedure, write it down and keep safe for next time.
