Smooth operation

Volume adjustable (through very intuitive setting process)

This espresso machine from Russell Hobbs is easy to use thanks to plausible graphics on the control panel and a screen that visualises the current status. The quality of the espresso is acceptable, but could be improved in parts, as there are regularly a lot of coarse pores in the crema.
