Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Melitta Aromaboy is a small filter coffee machine, and the listing mostly agrees with itself about that: the bullets describe a filter machine with a removable filter holder and a glass jug, the filter size is given as #2, and the coffee input is ground coffee. One field does not agree — the Coffee Maker Type box reads "Espresso Machine". It sits at #9 in this guide at £32.46, with 4.4 stars from 4,327 ratings.
The second disagreement is the one that could actually stop you brewing. The Voltage field on the specification table reads 110, and nothing else on the page repeats or corrects that number. If you are buying in Britain, that is a figure to settle with the seller before you order, because a 110V appliance and a British kitchen socket are not the same conversation. The other number worth weighing is capacity: the bullet says "Makes 2 cups of coffee at a time" while the Capacity field says 0.31 litres, which is about one large mug — and several of the 4,327 buyers describe getting exactly one mug out of it.
Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing — the bullets, the specification table, the price and the review counts — and not from any test we ran ourselves.
