Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this cause i love cooper which the accents looked good and a nice looking machine to display on my coffee station. The holder is easy enough to shake out the puck which was an issue on last macine. The grinder is useless as is clogs easy, switched to simple stanalone grinder for beans. There was a terrible water leak everytime is made expresso. It would drip from the bottom and warp the wood on my station so i was constantly wiping up. Found the back right part of the tray had a top cover piece where the water drained and opening was to small so it would leak around the tray and out the front. Removed that top cover piece to widen the opening and good now.

I purchased the Cafe Bellissimo on Black Friday 2021 from Best Buy and it’s great! I’ve been making lattes everyday for a close to a year without issue. It’s actually manufactured by GE and comes with everything you’d need to make espresso drinks. The machine has built-in connectivity and notifies you on your mobile phone or tablet of any issues or when it’s time for routine maintenance. It also steam cleans itself after every use to minimize scaling — other more expressive “B”rands don’t have this feature. A note of advice — if you get this machine, please read the instructions and pay particular attention to the grinder settings. Other buyers gave this product one star because of a “grinder defect” or ‘grinder malfunction’ which is misleading and from my experience somewhat incorrect. The grinder will shut off if something gets stuck in it which can occur for various reasons, e.g. the grind setting is too fine for the grade or size of the bean. All you have to do is adjust the grind setting to a larger one by rotating the bean hopper counterclockwise slightly and tapping it to clear the issue. That’s all you have to do instead of packing up the product and shipping it back or returning it to a store. I’m really happy with this machine and my friends who’ve stayed with us want it too after learning how much it costs, seeing how easy it is to make espresso drinks and tasting our lattes every morning.

Esthetically it’s pretty. Quality of coffee not bad but that comes with its issues. Learned quickly that the coffee grinder has to be set for nothing less than 12 (basically coarse) otherwise it’s clogs and the clean up is super annoying. It will absolutely grind down to fine but you better be ready to pull the vacuum out, make a mess on your counter because it will 100% clog. The other issue I have with this machine, which would have been impossible to avoid from reviews, and started within 3-4 months from getting it, is that while I’ve done the weekly cleaning, mostly daily cleaning. There aren’t many pieces to clean. However I notice this “stuff” to appear towards the back of the machine to realize somehow coffee is releasing back there. See picture. Nowhere in the manual does it speak about this. Cleaning consists of wiping down and then descaling the water. Wouldn’t even know how to take it apart. Just unacceptable. It wipes off but clearly not normal. Would I get this again? Absolutely not. My next one will be without a grinder. Rather get a better machine and invest instead in a proper coffee grinder.

I don’t know why I didn’t get an espresso machine sooner. It has changed my mornings. No more s.bucks runs. I can recreate any coffee shop recipe and the use/ cleaning is very very easy. You just have to be aware of what you’re doing especially with the steam wand. The design is very nice with the copper accents and very good material. I also appreciate the app for it, you can set your single and double shot settings how you like it & depending on the beans you are using. It also sends reminders if the water is running low

I bought this for my boyfriend as a birthday gift! If you read the directions and follow instructions correctly it’s super easy to use with little to no problems. Espresso game is so much better after purchasing! Definitely buy this if you are a coffee lover

I use it daily! Connects to your phone with how to videos for cleaning and prudct care. You can adjust how much is grinded in your shot. Looks fantastic. Comes with a dual layered portafilter that gives your shots crema. The only problem is in a perfect world with fresh espresso and time to kill you could time your shots better. No need with the dual layered portafilter I consistently pull 22 second shots (considered perfect). I love it. My sister bought one just days after I got mine. I WOULD RECCOMEND. I could type all day with how awesome this product has treated me. I guess youll just have to experience it yourself :)

I upgraded to this from a Delonghi espresso machine. It makes really good shots and the steam wand is perfect.

Nice looking machine, fit under cabinets. Grinder works perfectly. Coffee taste amazing. I recommend that machine

So far so good, coffee is amazing. Would recommend! easy to use.

Beautiful luxurious design and perfect espresso or cappuccino or lattes with the milk froth capabilities.

Runs fantastic. All functions work well. Once you dial in the grind for your specific beans it makes wonderful espresso over and over again. The steam wand takes a longer time to warm milk only because it’s having to heat the water, but it still does well.

This is honestly the closest thing to a commercial version. My only complaint is that the grinder gets clogged up sometimes. It puts out a good hot temperature for steaming and frothing milk, more so than other brands, I’ve tried before. It has a very sleek and classy look to it. I’ve only had it for a month and already made enough coffees to suffice its purchase.

Everything is pretty good about this coffee maker. The only reason I have 4 stars is because the coffee bean grinder always gets stuck. When I select the button to grind the beans, some of the beans would get stuck at the top and I always have to smack the side of the bean grinder for the beans to fall down.

This machine is beautiful and the expresso comes out really HOT!! The only thing i dont like is after a month the letters on the buttons are disappearing. They should of put them on top on the buttons

The café’ bellissimo is a well-designed expresso machine. It has a simplified design regarding the buttons. They make it easy to select how much you want the grinder to grind and how much expresso to dispense. The selections are single or double for both the grinder and the number of shots of expresso. The grinder is on top of the machine and can be turned one direction or the other to select course or fine or some variation in between. It comes with the hopper for the beans, tamper, milk pitcher, cleaning kit, and standard pieces you would expect such as the portafilter and 4 filters. There were no missing pieces. Everything that was supposed to be in the box was. The drip trey, bean hopper, and grinding burr can be removed for cleaning. The pressure the machine uses is supposed to be 15 bars and the machine performs as such. The expresso made from this machine is as good as I was hoping it would be. It also has a steam wand built in. You select the steam option by turning the knob in the center. It had no problems frothing milk for me to use in making a café mocha. You can also use the center knob to select hot water. All of the components are well made and I would expect them to last a very long time. The machine itself as well as the portafilter and tamper have an elegant appearance and will look great on your countertop. Overall, this is a well made easy to use espresso machine. I did not run into any problems when using the espresso machine. There is an app for it which is supposed to help you get it connected to wifi. I wasn’t able to get the machine connected as the app would not go past the password screen during wifi setup. The next button remained greyed out. This was a problem with the app not the expresso machine itself. It may be addressed by the time this review posts, but at the time I went through the setup, the app wasn’t fully working. I’m sure this will be addressed with an update since I was using an early version of the app. Nevertheless, the espresso machine worked well. I would recommend the Café Bellissimo to anyone wanting to get a well made elegant looking espresso machine that should last a long time.

Excellent coffee maker. We are really enjoying this coffee maker. Would recommend it to all my friends.

Love it!!!alway wanted one of these espresso machines and I’m happy i make the choice in buying this one .

Love this looks and makes the Best espresso I’ve ever had and easy to clean up so you can start thinking about the next one :)

If I never use it, it already won me over in design.

Sleek and very chic! If you are in real estate it’s a great product for staging. This replaced my nespresso that I loved so dearly. I love being my own barista and creating drinks. Clean up is minimal.
