    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!

    This is the best espresso maker I have ever bought. It's easy to use and the steam wand actually heats the milk. I will say the steam wand is loud.

    I was concerned when I switched from a much larger Breville to a smaller machine that I would loose some quality but since my old machine was almost 10 years old, I feel that the new technology in this revel bambino is exceptional. I noticed it draws a lot of energy when I push shots but the quality of the shots and the texture are really good. The small footprint of the new machine and how fast it’s ready to pull espresso shots. I went with this model because I don’t make a lot of cappuccinos or milk based coffees so for the price point I believe it is spot on. It’s also an easy machine to use.

    It pulls a really good shot for a machine that's so compact, the steam wand is also great for a machine of this size, and it gets hot leagues quicker than any boiler-based esspresso machine.

    Works as good as can be expected for an entry level machine. Have been using it for a little over 1 month now so still learning all of the settings. As far as Pros the machine does good for the price point which was expected from a Breville product. Only Con so far is that when I make two doubles shots in a row the second pull always over draws by almost double. This happens even when I purge the system before the first shot. As far as recommending this item to someone else, it was a good as an entry level machine but if possible maybe save up and get a high end model.

    Game changer! Love our little Bambino. Super easy to use. Frothing milk takes some practice but didn’t take long to get. Well worth the money for delicious espresso with beautiful creme.

    Disappointing Baby version of My Barista Express

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

    The Bambino is the right name for this small version of my kitchen barista express that I adore. It is light, makes less-enjoyable espresso drinks and its parts (portafilter, tamper) lack heft. It's adequate for making espresso drinks but lacks the power seen in similar espresso machines by its competitors. The instructions for the portafilter locking mechanism to start your coffee extraction says to just lock it until it catches, but the seal is too loose and drops the entire porta filter in the midst of brewing. When you totally lock the portafilter in place it is so tight that it takes 3 hands to push it back and unlock the seal. I would not purchase it if I had tried it beforehand.
