Product Description

The Gaggia Platinum Swing uses a sleek, modern design (including a digital LCD screen and backlit touch ring controls) to achieve sophisticated, traditional brewing – a true unity of the past and future of espresso. For excellent heat retention, and to assure Rapid Steam function, the Platinum Swing features a stainless steel lined boiler. Each crema-topped shot of espresso is customizable to your preferences, as you can adjust the dosage from 7 to 10-1/2 grams of espresso per shot, adjust grind fineness to coarse, medium or fine, turn pre-infusion on or off, and more. The Pannarello steam wand ensures effortless frothing and steaming for thick cappuccinos and lattes, and the commercial-quality burr grinder crushes beans evenly and consistently to your preferred level of fineness. For those days when you have company over, amaze them with the Milk Island! Just attach it to the machine, fill it with milk and let them watch as it steams and froths their milk all by itself! The Gaggia Platinum Swing creates a coffee bar in your kitchen, a perfect addition for the home barista.

This review is from: Gaggia 90851 Platinum Swing Automatic Espresso Machine with Milk Island, Silver and Black (Kitchen)
I had a problem with the first machine I received. It didn't work, and had to go back. The second machine worked but then gave me false error messages along the way. I sent that one back as well.

The machine looks better in the picture, but when you get it out of the box, it's made almost entirely of plastic. Although there are settings to change the way it makes your coffee, I found all of them to do very little with the final cup. I came away thinking it was too much money for an automated machine that could break very easily. The coffee itself was fine, and the frothing was average (the Milk Island was a total waste of time- if you can't hold up a pitcher to the steam nozzle, why bother having a cappuccino machine?)

Don't buy an automatic espresso machine. Too much to go wrong for a very average cup of Joe. Do a little work with a semi-automatic and you'll be much happier.

My parents have had a Gaggia Titanium for several years. It has been going strong for 4+ years. I finally decided to make the switch from a Keurig to a superautomatic and so far I am glad I did.
The machine makes great espressos and the milk island is suprisingly useful. Setup didn't take long. Just make sure to "activate" the water filter. There is a setting in the menu to activate the water filter. The machine will pump water through the steam wand and then you are good to go.
This machine is much quieter than the Titanium model and I like the design better. Small footprint for a superautomatic and nice modern display screen.
You have three drink programs - espresso, coffee, and long coffee. You set how much water you want to brew in each cycle when you setup the machine and then choose one of the three when you want to brew. You can adjust the amount of coffee used in each cycle by using the bean button (mild, medium, and strong). You can also adjust how... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars DON"T BUY GAGGIA, August 24, 2009
This review is from: Gaggia 90851 Platinum Swing Automatic Espresso Machine with Milk Island, Silver and Black (Kitchen)

I am a degreed Mechanical Engineer and these machines are very poorly designed!
Mine broke...and I had had to pay shipping and insurance.
GAGGIA will not stand behind their warranty, because it's the money and not the quality Gaggia 14101 Classic Espresso Machine, Brushed Stainless Steel Gaggia 90851 Platinum Swing Automatic Espresso Machine with Milk Island, Silver and Black Gaggia 90901 Platinum Swing Up Automatic Espresso Machine with Milk Island,...
