Manual of product Anima Class
Editorial note
The Gaggia Anima Class is an automatic coffee machine that stands out for its ease of use and numerous features. With a maximum pressure of 15 bars, it ensures optimal coffee extraction, allowing you to enjoy drinks rich in flavors and aromas. Its 1.8 L water tank and 0.5 L milk reservoir offer great capacity, ideal for preparing multiple cups of coffee or milk-based drinks without having to refill them frequently. Additionally, the integrated milk frother makes it easy to create cappuccinos and lattes, adding a barista touch to your coffee experience. However, some drawbacks should be noted. The lack of a built-in grinder limits the use of fresh coffee beans, which may disappoint purists. Furthermore, the machine does not offer a quick start function, which could be a downside for those looking for instant preparation. Weighing 8.7 kg, moving it can be challenging, and while the LCD screen is functional, it lacks interactivity compared to more advanced models. Regarding writing scores, the user experience is rated very satisfactory, with a score of 85, while performance is rated at 80 due to the absence of a grinder. The design is appreciated for its elegance, but its weight receives a score of 75, highlighting a practical aspect to consider. The value for money is good (78), although some features are lacking compared to more expensive models. Usability is intuitive (82), and features like the milk frother and customizable settings are highly rated at 90. Finally, support and documentation, while useful, could be improved for better understanding. Overall, the Gaggia Anima Class is a solid option for coffee lovers seeking a high-performing and elegant automatic machine, even if some improvements would be desirable to satisfy all users.Score details
