Advantages: Choice on types of coffee

Disadvantages: Short frother length. Awkward design.

I purchased this coffee maker about 18 months ago. It is split into three sections, filter coffee, frother and espresso.
The first problem I have found is tipping the jug of water to begin the filter process. The lid lifts and you tip the water at the back. The position of where you tip the water is quite awkward and have spilt water many times.
The frother - this comes with a metal jug. To get the milk to froth, the jug has to be almost full. If you have half a jug of milk, the frother is not long enough to reach the milk. I have found myself wasting a lot of milk using this.
The espresso is fine.
Overall, it makes good coffee, I just think the design could be better thought through. I love the coffee however I would like a more updated model that would have addressed these problems.
