I purchased a second machine Malengo.La my first time almost five years, with use rgulire.C is a reasonable time, in view of other machinery and comments.
This new Malengo is of good quality, practical, beautiful (black). The product will improve.
I only reproach him, to be quite noisy, but the result is more than up for it (or that) that loves real espresso!
The pods are found in all supermarkets in different areas, with several choices.
In view of the number of espresso machines on the market, with prices equal to or more important, I do not regret my purchase.

Disappointed by this little machine, coffee tastes “chemical” and the different flavors offered by Malongo are not in my view, the rdv.

I tried several varieties of pods, any show of bitterness, but little taste of espresso worthy of the name.

Deca is downright undrinkable.

I just tried the machine received mixed! For a cup of coffee 6cl not fill it completely, if not ’sock juice “guaranteed coffee very clear with 3cl half decent result without more, in the end I do not recommend .

Malongo – EXP 240 A good compromise

I’m a big coffee drinker since I drink about 8 espressos a day. This machine pod is an excellent compromise, the price remains the domain of reasonable prices doses of coffee, tea and herbal tea as well (less than 3 12 in the supermarket). Its 15 bar pump espresso allows worthy of the name, creamy wishes. It is possible to buy the doses of coffee in every department store and the selection of sources is quite important. I’m not at my first Espresso machine that mark, the former gave up the ghost after 7 to 8 years. I think it is useless to put a crazy price in this small appliances, these devices have a lifespan scheduled 3 to 5 years maximum. Malongo is a purchase that is between Nespresso and Senseo.

Another problem, the device is noisy, and the plastic finish is poor (beware of scratches …).

Choose a Nespresso machine if your budget allows, or your old coffee, the result will always be more convincing!

I found the quality exceptional coffee with different flavors.
In addition there is a wide selection of coffee pods.

The decaf is one that I prefer because it is highly flavored and more solvent-free (and this is rare)

Regarding the quality of the machine, I find robust and easy to use.
