Coffee Maker from Argos

Hi all

Picked up this today

http://www.argos.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=30001&partNumber=4229337

and Im not a huge coffee head at all, but getting more into it recently. Anyway, came home, set up and it seems a little noisy, when I hit the coffee button. Im presuming the noise is the pump, or is it? Anybody any ideas?

Appreciate any help

Hi wiseolsham,

Is it louder than say a vacuum cleaner? It will produce a little noise, shouldn't be over-the-top though. What type of noise is it? Is it a humming? Is the water flowing through the group-head ok? How do you find the coffee?

Did you manage to pick up some decent coffee on your way?

Well I'll be presuming too but I imagine the noise is the pump. Even on top-end machines the pump is a bit noisy so that's to be expected.

Hi folks. Thanks for the replies, appreciate it!

Its certainly not as loud as a vacuum cleaner. The noise is hard to describe, its like a vibration of sorts. I didnt know they'd be any noise, so I would reckon at this stage its definitely the pump.

Im a fan of Gloria Jeans beans and always get the vanilla ones. As I said, Im not much of a coffee buff, so Im not sure if things are good or bad. But, compared to the last coffee maker we had, this is fantastic. Espressos are wonderfully creamy and the cappucinos are 10 times better.
