Database accountability

When sources disagree, we show the disagreement.

Retailer pages, manuals and manufacturer listings can publish different dimensions, capacities or model details. This register protects tight-space and compatibility decisions from false certainty.

46cmEC9455 EX:2 English instruction manualDe'Longhi · checked 22/07/2026

Why it matters: The 9.3cm difference can decide whether this machine fits beneath cupboards or on a shallow worktop.

Current treatment: Space checks evaluate both published figures and cannot return an unqualified fit. Measure the exact retail unit before buying for a tight space.

250gLa Specialista Touch EC9455.M retailer specificationCurrys · checked 22/07/2026

Why it matters: The difference affects refill frequency and how long beans may sit exposed to air, but not drink compatibility.

Current treatment: The database uses the manual's 180g figure until the fitted hopper can be measured on a UK retail unit.

14.3 × 32.6 × 32.7cmGenio S Plus EDG315.B current offer and conflicting specificationArgos · checked 22/07/2026

Why it matters: Argos describes a substantially larger footprint, so either set of figures could produce the wrong fit decision in a small kitchen.

Current treatment: Space checks evaluate both retailer footprints and cannot return an unqualified fit. Confirm the box/model code and measure the available space with margin.

Melitta Look V Timer

Jug capacity in cups

variant dependent · medium impact
10 cups / 1.25LLook V Timer product page and technical dataMelitta UK · checked 22/07/2026
12 cupsLook Timer 1025-08 UK retail specificationArgos · checked 22/07/2026

Why it matters: Cup counts are not standard measures and the retailer code may identify a related variant, so the headline serving count is unsafe for planning.

Current treatment: Use the manufacturer's measurable 1.25L tank capacity. Treat 10-cup and 12-cup labels as serving conventions until variant identity is confirmed.

Why it matters: The 0.1L difference is unlikely to change a purchase, but it affects refill and running-cost calculations.

Current treatment: The database uses the current Sage product-page figure of 1.9L and keeps the manual's rounded 2L claim visible.

Why it matters: A 6.3cm disagreement matters on shallow worktops and when allowing room to remove the water tank or hopper.

Current treatment: Space checks evaluate both published figures and cannot return an unqualified fit. Confirm the exact unit for a close-fit purchase.
