The good:
The Saeco Primea Touch Plus is a high-end, more-than-just-coffee brewing machine. It's not just a coffeemaker -- it's a centerpiece for your kitchen.  Not only is it a great conversation starter, the Saeco Primea Espresso machine allows you an extensive amount of control over the setup, taste, and density, of your favorite hot beverage of choice.

If you are looking for an excellent cup of coffee and a machine that has the ability to bump up your social status while proudly declaring, "I am a true connoisseur" -- this automatic espresso machine will give you the desired effect.

The bad:
There have been a noticeable number of reports of less-than-hot results with the milk-frothing portion of this machine. While these reports should be taken with a grain of salt, or maybe a teaspoon of sugar, depending on your tastes, it is something that you should be aware of.  The consensus is that sometimes cappuccinos are not as hot as the drinker would like. 

Bottom line:  The Saeco Prime Touch Plus Automatic Espresso machine is a beautiful piece of machinery that will liven up your kitchen, and gives you full control over the taste, and the strength, of your coffee-like drinks.  However, because of the somewhat regular theme of warm, instead of hot, cappuccinos and lattes -- we give this automatic espresso machine 4 out of 5 stars.
