I’ve had this machine for around 2 or 3 weeks now, and was so far very happy with it. However, I went to use it today and when I turned it on to heat, all the water from the full tank flowed out into the bottom tray, all in about 30 seconds. I refilled and repeated after emptying and reattaching numerous times, yet it continued to do it every time the machine was turned on. Has anyone else experienced this, or knows what could be wrong?
Before today, I had been quite impressed, considering the price and that it was from Aldi. My expectations weren’t high, but having it break after only a few weeks is a bit disappointing.

Seemed to be ok, but none of my cups fit under !!! Grrr.
Used zarraffa coffee . I did have a small glass . Machine worked ok and coffee tasted fine. But quite annoying I have to go buy small cups. We like a mugs of coffee
Seems easy to use and clean . So far.

There may be fancier coffee machines out there but for the price this one from Aldi can't be beat.
It makes a really good cafe style coffee and does the milk too, although that takes a lot of practice to get just right. Its under a fair amount of pressure and I got milk all over my shirt the first time I tried. It is also important to clean the wand after using of you get dried milk clogging it up
The coffee making process is quick and easy and cleaning up is simple. too. It's a good basic machine and you really can't go wrong for the price.

I bought this last Saturday and it just exploded coffee everywhere! The force was that strong that it blew the handle out of my hand spraying coffee everywhere all over me and my kitchen..
Pretty bloody dangerous!
Also this week my sterling oven blew a light globe its only been used 5 times .. it was a gift and they can’t find receipt so I have to get a stat dec to prove it was purchased at Aldi !! Yeah because woolies sell your brand .. or perhaps my daughter walked out with it in her arms .. pretty poor form ALDI

Boiler wise Great, Looks Great even sort of works but it constantly LEAKS water all over the bench when its used.
Cleaning is difficult and the steam pipe has serious flaws in that the heat shield moves around allowing milk gunge under it and the steam tube is generally hard to clean requiring dismantling and inspection of the many nooks and crannies that fill with old milk!. All in all a BIG Disappointment. My same priced Sunbeam is FAR BETTER with none of these serious issues!
I have contacted Aldi and advised them of the design Faults and await their response!
Save your money and don't buy this one or take it back if you have already made the same mistake as me.

It’s my first coffee machine and I love it. Ease clean, Ease use and make excellent coffee. And don’t need to buy expensive. My family make a 3-4 times daily, and I recommend this machine to everyone who love coffee with 3 years warranty. Thanks Aldi for all your products.

I am getting good results but this is obviously a budget machine.
It pulls a good extraction with lots of crema but it isn't quite in the zone. yet. I have experimented with different tamping pressures and this alters things quite a lot.
I can get a decently heated milk no worries but again it required a bit of practise.
This is an adequate basic unit. Don't expect miracles for the price but it does the job and you need to practise a bit to get it happening.
I feel it is good value with Aldi's 3 year guarantee.

My first Coffee Machine and I am very happy with the machine. I make 1-2 coffees a day
I would recommend the machine especially with the 3yr warranty.
Pros
heats within around 20 seconds.
good crema.
easy to use.
Cons
Coffee filter does not stay in the portafilla when you knock out the coffee grinds so we have to scrape out with a teaspoon.
Coffee beans need a very fine grind, I am using setting 3 on the aldi grinder and even then in 25 seconds the amount of coffee is greater than 30ml maybe 50mm but still tastes great.

So just about every electrical item I've purchased from ALDI this is a piece of unequivocal trash. I've tried 5 different types of beans and countless grinds and it still produces an over extracted anaemic mess. the crema is weak as hell and dissappears within a minute (I only drink double espressos). God this thing is a piece of crap. DO BUY SPEND YOU MONEY (or your time) ON THIS GARBAGE. I don't know how ALDI gets away with selling the trash they sell! I suppose there's lots of bogans who think they're getting a deal.

We've had many a coffee outta this puppy, and it's starting to show. When we first got it back in August (2017) it was pretty damn good for a budget machine. Yes you've gotta play a part in every step but that's what you get at this price point. It was a bit noisy but not unbearable. Roll around February (2018) and its starting to pull weak shots of coffee. No matter how hard or loose the coffee is tamped (I used to run a cafe, its not user error) it will always pour a weak, watery disgrace (not the beans either). The next shot is generally a bit stronger and the 3rd is ok. So something going on with pump? Anyway, 3 year warranty makes me less angry about it. Will return it soon as I can find a decent machine on sale.

I bought this as a replacement for the never-ending issues with a Sunbeam coffee machine. It looks great on my kitchen bench! It makes a great crema - I use the Aldi ground coffee (mild yet satisfying!) And the frother works well. I love that it has a 3 year warranty! Since purchasing it in August, have had no issues. Pleased to see the machine in special buys recently. I thoroughly recommend the machine- we usually make 4 coffees a day and it hasn't missed a beat. I re-fill the water tank before every use- tends to use quite a bit- by just pouring water in to the tank. Easy to use and wipe clean.
