    This is a great introductory espresso machine. There were a few troubleshooting issues when setting it up, but I’ve loved it once I got it figured out.

    Works really good. On this one you can either do expreso or work at the milk; one at a time, not at the same time. But it does its job really good. Perfect for home use only. It hasn't breakdown. And it doesn't come with a container to froth milk.

    Love this coffee maker. Makes delicious coffee fast and easy. Like the oatmeal design too, looks good in the kitchen. When I was picking up there was water in the water tank lime someone used it and returned it this way. But I decided to give it a try

    Review on hold since it was broken upon delivery. UPS threw it over the fence a few seconds before I got to the front door hoping to receive it so it wouldn't have been damaged. Then learned that Best Buy return policy is only 15 days now and I was past the return period because the item was a gift so the item was never opened until day 29 after receiving the item. The housing is mostly plastic but the size of the machine is good.

    Took a while to have it running, bubbles get stuck in the water tank that’s why there’s no espresso coming out

    Machine Is a Flop

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Priming and purging the machine is hit or miss. Pulling shots is hit or miss. Sometimes it’s perfect. Sometimes it leaks out around the seal of the portafilter and machine. The pressure of the steam coming out of the steam wand is very weak. You cannot use the steam to swirl and froth the milk. It’s the same as a kid blowing air into the milk with a straw and creating bubbles. The latte art in the picture was created with a 5 year old single boiler $50 machine. No matter how hard I tried, I could not create similar lattes with this machine.

    My coffee comes out in a matter of seconds and it's so delicious. The frotter works well making my milk hot and perfect for a cappuccino. I love that you can fill it with water for at least 8-10 uses.

    I really wanted to like this espresso machine. I have tried 4 different time to make a cafe latte and have failed miserably. The steam- milk function is very difficult to undertand. I have read the directions several times. Its just not super clear. Maybe because I am a newbie at making espresso. But I will likely be returning. I loved the color and how compact it is but functionality lacks horribly.

    Excellent Beginner Espresso Machine

    For the price and looks of it, this is an excellent espresso machine for those who are starting on this espresso life. There’s no going back to regular brew now. Altough it only has 4 buttons, it’s not very intuitive to use at first, but nothing like a good short YouTube tutorial to help set it up.

    Really love this espresso machine! Totally worth the money, and I use it every day! The pressure is fine to get fantastic coffee crema and the milk frother works well for making coffee latte. This machine makes my day!

    For the price, it's an excellent entry level espresso machine. You're not going to pull expert shots from this, but it packs a punch and can definitely deliver strong shots.

    Got this machine on sale and used it quite a bit. Worked great for a few months. Recently the coffee output has decreased, the single serving only fills half an espresso cup and a double is barely 1 espresso cup. I clean and purge it regularly. See pic, using water for test.
