    This machine worked decently for the first month but then it started spilling coffee out the side instead of espresso. The so called steamer works, but barely. Right when I was looking into returning it, the the machine was past its returned date lf 30 days. About the same quality as hotel room coffee maker. Cheap plastic and overall not worth the $150 i spent.

    A Superb Landfill Filler

    This thing is awful because the output smells like chemicals. I've tried running 20 or so cycles with water and water+baking soda and it still smells. Sad I've wasted money and I'm adding to the landfill.

    There is a missing part of one cup filter basket. But there is no any option for me to get replacement or exchange it. Best Buy is really bad place for purchasing.
