loved it!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect for a beginner. Great product. Would recommend
I would recommend this to a friendPoor quality and customer service
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First machine leaked out of the box. Exchanged it for a new one. 3 months later the tank broke. Best Buy customer service says they don’t provide any warranty and replacement part is not available. $300 for a product that lasted 3 months. Pathetic product and customer service.

Machine broke after only 2 months of use.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Machine looked good in the beginning. It takes longer to have the milk ready but that’s what you get for the price. The espresso tastes good. The issue is that after only 2 months using it at home, the machine would not turn on which made me very frustrated. Trying to get it fixed by Breville. :(

Better than my Nespresso machine
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This defenitely feels like a step up from what i was drinking with my nespresso machine. Would recommend
I would recommend this to a friend Decent for price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent for the price. Pucks come out soupy, still haven’t figured out the proper grind size for double shot.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Breville Consumer Support
Posted .A soupy puck means that the grinds are too fine/dense to allow all the liquid to be pressed through. The first drips should come out anywhere between 8-12 seconds after you push the shot button, no matter if it's for a single or double shot. Once the streams begin to come out, they should be even, and have the consistency of warm honey. If you continue to get drips, then your grind is too fine. If you get watery streams that look like drip coffee or tea, your grind is too coarse.
If you continue to experience issues, please feel free to either send us an email to askus@brevilleusa.com or call us at 866-273-8455. We'll be happy to help you from there.
Expected more for a price I paid
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This machine gets the job done, is easy to clean and operate. But there isn't much coffee flavor and crema that comes through

too lightweight
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned this item as soon as I got it opened. The machine does not have enough weight in the bottom to keep it upright when attaching and removing the portafilter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendHighly recommended
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pulls excellent shots with both preground and whole bean coffee. The milk frother is amazing. It will produce micro foam as well as your favorite coffee shop. The only con would be the tamper is just plastic. In that same note, it still tamps well enough to create great shots. No need to spend double the amount on any other machine.

Good but not loads of power
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does the job. Don't think its very high powered - it can't put much pressure through the grind.

Keurig of espresso
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is very basic. No display or anything. Not even sure if its the right pressure or tempurature. The portafilter has a plastic insert that channels the liquid through two holes. Not too fond of that, so I purchased an aftermarket one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWorked for 2 year
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It worked well for 2 year, after that it just gave up. It was unable to power on. Very disppointed

Skip!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My machine stopped working within the first couple of months. To get it to work, Breville said I needed to buy an “accessory.” However, because of their “generosity,” they’d send me it for free (in two weeks time). Parts necessary for the machine to work should be included. I would not buy this machine.

Not worth the money.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Waste of $300! This machine produces the smallest amount of espresso I’ve ever seen and that’s even with the 2 cups option selected.
