Pros: Shape, design, water reservoir with filter, built-in bean grinder/holder, no waiting for coffee to brew.
Cons: PRICE, normal mugs don't fit, high maintenance, oily beans can clog machine, etc.
Summary: I bought the Capresso C1000 from Williams-Sonoma on sale for about $800 + tax. Still expensive but the fact that I know many were purchased at full retail felt really nice. In all honesty, the sale made this machine even more appealing and was a ... read more

Pros: Does a good job of frothing, easy to use and clean
Cons: Delivers lukewarm shots requiring extra heating.
Cup plate scratched WAY too easily.
Summary: This machine does many of it's features very well but has a few flaws that need fixing, or at least methodology changes. If you simply turn on the machine, and wait for the green light to make coffee, you will end up with quite a lukewarm shot. ... read more

Pros: Easy to use after initial learning period. Love it after 2 years.
Cons: Initially expensive to buy (pays for itself over time).
Summary: If you drink coffee regularly (we started making lattes, which are easy with this machine), it's worth the expense, compared to the price of a daily trip to Starbucks-- will pay for itself over time. We have had no maintenance problems. Easy to use, ... read more

Pros: Outstanding service!
Delicious pressure-brewed coffee at home has never been easier.
Cons: Necessary cleaning tablets and filters are pricey.
Oily beans wreak havoc-avoid dark roasts.
Summary: I bought my C1000 used at an auction site for around $500 at the end of 2005. When it arrived, it looked great, but wouldn't brew. One of the reasons I'd decided on the Capresso was their famous refurbish for $125 policy; if you have a problem, you can

Summary: I had a problem with my C1000 where the O ring for the brewing chamber blew out. This is a 50 cent rubber O ring, which Capresso would not sell me (easy repair), they claimed since it was an internal part I would have to send the machine back for an
