Customer Ratings & Reviews

It is a perfect starter espresso machine and fits perfectly on the counter without taking up too much space!! As long as you read all the directions it is very user friendly

I had a SAECO espresso maker for 25 or 30 years. It was solid as a rock. I replaced the pump 3 times and the group head twice, but otherwise it was solid. A beautiful piece of equipment. I was apprehensive of the Bambino because it didn't have the solid feel of the SAECO, and has a lot of electronics. But now that I have it I absolutely love it. It makes much better espresso, so much so its shocking. It doesn't over extract the way the SAECO did. Secondly, and in some ways most important is that its incredibly fast. Its ready to either steam or brew in just a couple of seconds. I can pull expresso and steam milk immediately, back and forth more quickly than I can load coffee into the head! The temperature is correct, and stable. I can't express how much better this is. I didn't steam milk with the old machine, wait for it to heat, steam, then wait for it to cool to brew. This machine is amazing in its ability to steam and brew instantly and accurately. I don't think its going to last 30 years, but its superiority makes up for it.

Pretty good. I don’t think it’s the best espresso maker out there but it makes a pretty decent one. It is a little loud and does sputter the espresso a bit not matter what I do, could be user error as I am new to the espresso maker world. This is definitely way better than the previous brand I tried. And good for my purposes.

Love it easy to use great quality and you can do so much with it

This is a great product. It is easy to operate and user friendly.

Excellent little machine. Works as expected. Pulls quality shots and comes with everything you need to start off.

Ready within seconds as advertized. Nice to be able to add enough water for multiple cups.

Awsome expresso machine, easy and quick to make coffee

I love my breville bambino! Love making lattes at home and it's easy to use.

Love it. I drink 2 double shots everyday and so far, a month in I have been loving it. The entire process of building an expresso eco system is so much fun and so much cash :|. This is a string little consistent machine that is working for a newbie like me. Now I am saving up my monies from the unspent cappuccino purchases at Star bucks for that fancy beans grinder. Fun times

Gave this as a gift and I've heard nothing but great things.

Compact machine that does what is supossed to. Great esspresso shots out of the pressurized basket,not so friendly on the non pressurized cause it takes extra fine coffee,so make sure you have a very good grinder if you wanna use that basket,steamer wand does wanders,overall i am very impressed with it

We needed a new espresso maker--our Cuisinart model bit the dust after only two years. Our daughter recently purchased the Bambino Plus and has been happy with it. Because we don't mind steaming milk manually, and don't mind the stainless steel finish, we ordered the Bambino rather than the Plus--thereby saving $100. We are still getting used to the new machine, but so far, here are the PROS: Compact size Easy to access/fill water reservoir Moveable Steam wand CONS: We still struggle with getting the grind right, despite using fresh beans and a blade grinder. It's a work in progress!

Works great! My mom and I enjoy espressos everyday. I havent used the steamer yet but when i tested it, it worked great!

good starter for espresso machine. just get a good grinder.

I am saving so much money so the $300 price tag is worth it. This unit was recommended by a former Starbucks barista and it works great! So easy to use as well. Spoil yourself, it's worth it!

Worth the price. Has an elegant and minimalist design. Recommended!

I really enjoy this, as a former barista this is everything you need. Only downside is the steam wand takes 5-10 seconds to shut off once turned off. If you have the money, I would definitely get the upgraded version because it can only get better from this. But for the price this is perfect.

Works well , initial set was difficult but now great coffee.

Love love love this beautiful Coffee maker, easy to use, looks beautiful in the kitchen and WOW does my coffee taste great! Wroth every penny.
