I’ve attempted to make cappuccinos several times and all times but one, the frother has literally flown off in the middle of frothing. Milk flies everywhere and the hot steam is DANGEROUS. I can’t believe they charge what they do for this piece of junk.
DON’T BUY IT.

I had a top-of-the-line beautiful professional Krups machine that lasted me for over 12 years. It was really a beautiful piece of machinery, but, alas, it failed (the pump went). Time to get another one. Thinking that since this one lasted me so long, I decided to get another Krups. I went to Linens & Things here in the Toronto area and bought the XP4030 due to its reasonable price ($199 CAD on sale) and features (not to mention the nice form factor). I have now tried to make 4 espressos, using the 1-cup filter and the cheap plastic measuring spoon/tamper included in the box. When turning the machine on, the blue and orange lights light up immediately, then the orange “ready” light goes out within 2-3 seconds, supposedly indicating that the water is hot enough to make the cup. WRONG! The water is cold, it does not filter through the grounds (freshly ground for espresso at Starbucks), and there is virtually no crema. The taste is awful, and cold. I called L&T back and they said they’re thinking of discontinuing carrying Krups for the large number of similarly defective units they’ve sold. It’s a shame. They used to have such great machines, but if you continue to read reviews here and elsewhere, you’ll see how many have had the same experiences.
So this begs the question: what to buy in this price range? Saeco seems to be the machine of choice, off to the store I go.

Don’t get this unit. The steam wand comes off during steaming, the 1st espresso came out good then the next day the unit wouldn’t make espresso.
Very disappointed in Krups.

I wrongly thought the KRUPS name stood for quality products and good customer service.
The KRUPS XP4030 was a Christmas present. It worked on Christmas day. The very next day the Coffee Steam Selector Switch FAILED . The machine pumps hot water and steam ONLY out of the steam nozzle.
KRUPS Customer Service appologized for the inconvenience, and suggested the machine be sent to the closest service center POSTAGE and INSURANCE PREPAID. Customer Service refused to take full responsibility for the failure of this new machine.
