Saeco Nina
$300.00
Released January, 2008
The Pros:Powerful steamer that produces consistently rich espresso.
The Cons:Pump mechanism must be thoroughly cleaned before each use to avoid risk of steam wand blockage. Waiting for water/milk to heat up can be time-intensive. Abundance of small parts makes regular cleaning an extensive process.
The Saeco Nina is described as being an entry level espresso machine, meaning that it is supposed to be easy to use and has a low cost, but overall it is not the best product out there. It is described as requiring traditional "hands-on" brewing.

One good feature of the Saeco Nina is that is is able to handle ESE Pods. This means that prepackaged shots can be used to brew single cups, a great feature for the coffee inexperienced who just want something simple and easy to use. The Saeco Nina has a stainless steel boiler and heating element which is great for durability. It includes a cup warmer, basic button controls and a temperature ready light that are designed to make it easy to use for the inexperienced.
