Userflow of Buying food

A Student majoring in Business major

“I used to start learning coffee machine by myself with instructive manual. I know some knowledge about coffee machine. However, when using the SMEG drip coffee machine, I felt the instructive manual is too long and complex.”

A Food and Economics major student

“I have used many different kinds of coffee machines. I felt this SMEG coffee machine presents its simple and minimalism style well. I like how it presents brand style in the instructive manual.”
