Salter EK2732 Personal Coffee Machine - One Cup Filter Coffee Maker, Includes 420ml Stainless Steel Travel Mug, Removable & Washable Filter, Quick Brew In 3-4 Mins, Compatible With Ground Coffee, 750W

You can trust Salter to produce quality goods at affordable prices and for this item they continue to do so. For a quick one cup with no fuss it's perfect. Cleaning the filter is a dream. Once its emptied just rinse and no stain, no blockage. The reservoir is a bit tricky as the back fill near the lid hinge is best overcome by using a small jug but as I'm arthritic it may be a subjective thing. The travel mug keeps the drink at perfect temperature and a broad band prevents burning your fingers. Excellent results and all round winner.

Fantastic little coffee machine. We have been using this every day for a year and it never fails. Very simple to use, makes a lovely cup of coffee. The mug it comes with is OK, but nothing special, a useful measure for filling up the water more than anything.

I usually make coffee using a French press but cleaning it up isn't my favourite job. This machine is a nice step-up from that and I'm impressed. It's easy to use and clean, and it produces piping hot coffee. It's also cheaper and more environmentally friendly than using coffee pods. It doesn't take up much workspace room either, so hooray for that. I deducted a star from the overall rating for two niggly reasons. The first is that it's hard to see where the maximum fill line is in the reservoir. The other is that it continues to drip for a while after it has finished pouring the coffee. Neither is a deal breaker but perhaps Salter might fix them for future versions of this machine.

I was shocked at how good the coffee tasted from this cheap little plasticky machine! I'm a big fan of filter coffee, but if I'm honest, I can't be bothered with the whole manual set up anymore.... goose neck kettles, correct pouring speed, timings etc. I bought a Nespresso machine to make life easier, but an Americano from it tastes like water, even if I added another espresso from a second pod, just nasty. It's fine with milk based coffees, but I missed a good filter coffee. I saw this machine advertised and the reviews on here were good, so I thought I'd give it a go. The first cup was nice, but there was a bit of sludge in the last mouth full from the cup. So I put in a Kalita Wave 155 paper filter in instead of the reusable filter and the sludge disappeared, that second cup was spot on. I had a great cup of coffee, so I've not used the reusable plastic filter that comes with it again. The capacity is great for one person, I've not tried making more than one cup, so no idea if it's ideal for 2. I've not used the travel cup that comes with it, so no idea if that's any good either. Looks wise, it fits in well with my black kitchen. It isn't the most sturdy of machines, but you can't expect it to be at the price point. I do agree with other reviewers that a drip tray would be ideal, but again, for the price and the taste, I'm more than happy with this machine and would highly recommend it to others.

Great little machine, (about the size of a sliced loaf). I put through a few goes of clean water but still took another several runs with coffee to lose the new machine taste. Simple to use and just as quick as boiling the kettle. I love it

Well built, good coffee, fast. Would be 5 stars however what lets it down is that the display lights are always on, blazing out blue light which is not great if it is kept in the bedroom. Turning it off loses the clock time and alarm settings.

Had this for over two years now and we love it. So simple and unfussy and still makes great coffee. Relatively compact too. Every time we think about upgrading there isn’t one available that we think we’d like any more than this one.

A simple and basic filter coffee machine. Reusable and easy to clean filter. You can have a large or smaller coffee - depending how much water you add. The included mug is durable enough for me and been used aplenty to date - 400+ml too. Taste will depend on the person and the ground coffee used. I much prefer the coffee from this machine over instant coffee. The temperature is absolutely fine for your average coffee drinker. Only downside if there is one, the part of the machine where you place the included cup, is designed for that cup so putting a taller mug there isn’t possible for example. Very happy with my purchase.
