We have had one of these fantastic machines for about four years now. Sorry I can't remember how much we paid for it, but is was farily expensive at the time. We love it and use it every weekend to make delicious cafe style frothy cappuccino. The machine itself is neat although quite heavy - not taking up too much space on the ...  Read the complete review

I have had Coffee Gaggia espresso machine for the past 23 years! This the predecessor to the Classic and looks identical in every way but color. On average I have used it almost every day for those 23 years and only last month did it need servicing. They replaced an internal fuse and replaced the 23 year old group gasket. It is now back home and ...  Read the complete review

We have just been given a Gaggia Classic as a wedding present as my wife is rather fond of a good cappucino in the morning. The machine looks good, however, we also have a problem with the nozzle becoming detached every time you make a coffee and hot milk being sprayed everywhere requiring cleaning up. Gaggia really need to ...  Read the complete review

Not bad at all. I've had this machine for over 7 years and it's served me well. Practice makes perfect and after a few weeks you can produce cafe-quality coffee. One thing to note is that pre-ground packet coffee (eg Lavazza) isn't ground fine enough for this machine, get a grinder & use the finest setting or get it ...  Read the complete review

This is by far the best espresso machine you could have for your home. Easy to use, resulting in excellent coffee, just the thing to start your day ! I have had this machine for 6 weeks now and really can't fault it. The most important thing is to buy the best ground coffee Java Santos, great strength and Crema. You'll ...  Read the complete review

Express Review on Gaggia Classic Coffee

Not a bad product, but not that great either. Only makes warm coffee - not hot. Gaggia Helpdesk are poor. If you can get through to them you will find that no information is held about invididuals or units, so they won't know who you are. A little bit rude on the phone also.

Gaggia Classic Coffee: WRONG - IT'S GOOD!!! (359 words)

Well, I just bought one and IT'S REALLY GOOD! After 6 coffee's and two days I am making flat whites the way I like them, strong-ish, thick with crema and warm (not hot) - as good as a good cafe could make. About the milk frother: you must be using the 'panarello' attachment, which is a bit useless anyway, you can leave it off completely to no ill ...  Read the complete review

After a long day's shopping in Nottingham recently our final port of call was House of Fraser and the wonderful smell wafting around the shop floor led us to the Gaggia display counter. The barista immediately asked us if we would like a drink and it seemed a shame not to, so black coffees were produced for hubby and myself and a hot ...  Read the complete review

I’m a difficult person to buy presents for, so when I mentioned to my husband last summer that I liked the idea of an espresso machine it was inevitable that one would appear on my birthday. He went for what seemed to him to be the best of the domestic machines – the Gaggia Classic - as it‘s a well-built basic machine with none of the frills ...  Read the complete review
