  1. Gaggia Forum
    I'm envious - to my mind it is increasingly likely that my machine was dropped in their workshop by someone with butterfingers, rather than the carrier...
  2. Gaggia Forum
    My original Espresso Color needed to have the top and boiler etc removed to replace the seal - I thought 'no way, too involved for lil ole me, I'll give it to the experts' - fine experts Philips turned out to be. I don't know if the New Baby's seal, when the time comes, can be replaced by just...
  3. Gaggia Forum
    Well, original poster here... The so-called 'as new but refurbished' class A condition New Baby in ivory arrived yesterday. The operating manual despite being in a sealed bag was splattered on every page with coffee stains - not a big prob though. What was very crass was that on this...
  4. Gaggia Forum
    Philips are now offering a reconditioned 'like new' Gaggia New Baby - as they haven't got any more Color models. They won't give me a brand new machine and neither a refund and I asked that they ensure this machine is tested before they send it out. So the saga continues...

    Okay thanks for derailing my thread guys Latest update, came home and tested this replacement machine again, slow flow and part way through there is a 'pfffst' noise and then water comes pouring round the filter holder. So apparently a pressure/group head seal fault the same as my own...
  6. Gaggia Forum
    To clear up any confusion... A new identical machine, the cheapest I found was on Amazon for £180. My machine was purchased form the then-local Gaggia shop in 2009 ex display for far less. I registered the warranty online but it would have been around the time Gaggia UK went belly up. I...

    They said 'like for like' does not include cosmetics! I have just emailed my story to Watchdog!!!!

    This is a warning to anyone thinking of sending their machine for service or repair to Philips! My Gaggia New Espresso Color was leaking round the group head seal and although I got a couple off the internet, I was not brave enough to attempt replacing myself, as you have to access it by...

    Hi, no we didn't speak earlier. You must be thinking of someone else?

    No, basket never overfilled as I don't use ground beans, I just use pods.

    Okay, I give up. Got the seals in the post today - thanks for speedy posting, Mark! But I can't find how to get to the seal to replace it. I undid the shower screen and the allen bolts bt then the internal workings just wobble about and I can't see how to get into the thing! Help someone...

    Hi Mark I ordered one from you today, before I saw your message in this forum - great minds think alike - thanks for offering this service to all us peeps through your ebay store, looking forward to receiving the seal (actually ordered two), then see if it solves the problem - from what I've...

    Thanks. I would speak to the shop but they closed down ages ago. I think all Gaggia shops closed down or some may have been taken over but this one is definitely gone in my town. I think I can see the correct seal to order from Gaggia's website but I read elsewhere that Gaggia is slow service...

    Thanks for reply. It's defintely coffee coming out of the spouts as it should and then lots of clear water coming round the outside of the spout housing. Maybe it just looks like the water is coming from the thread but it is actually the group head gasket needs cleaning/replacing?

    Hi there I have a Gaggia Espresso Color which was ex display from a Gaggia shop and it leaks water as it is pouring coffee through the double spout at the base of the filter holder. The water is leaking between the thread and the spout part, so I don't think it's a group heard gasket problem. I...
