Customer Ratings & Reviews

Slim and compact quality espresso machine. Only thing hard to use is the filters are very tight and hard to remove if you want to change from dual shot to single shot.

I am a huge coffee person. I'm not a coffee snob but I do enjoy good coffee. I tend towards (oat)milk drinks so I haven't tried the espresso by itself since I don't have much to compare it to anyways. I am extremely happy with this machine. It's fast, it's easy, it comes with everything you need to get started right away. There are some things you can do that will have a huge impact on the quality of your drink. But you can start with what you have and work your way up based on your comfort level. It heats up faster than I can prepare the puck. The switch between steaming and brewing is quick and feels seem less. The speed and not waiting 30 minutes to heat up has me spoiled. It comes with a plastic tamper and a nice milk frothing pitcher. It has dual walled filter baskets to artificially create the pressure needed if you are using pre ground coffee or a grinder that doesn't grind fine enough. As long as the coffee is fresh you should get espresso that will make a good latte. It also comes with just the standard filter baskets which is ideal for when you are grinding your own coffee beans. You get more control over the end result. Since buying this I have stopped going to coffee shops and I genuinely look forward to making my latte. I'm offering to make anyone and everyone a latte because I enjoy it so much. I've even been using the steam wand for hot chocolate. The only danger in this purchase is remembering that moderation is key. Too much caffeine is bad. I once drank 5 double shot lattes in one day because I was having fun. Don't be me. Maybe invite people over for a coffee party.

We don't have a lot of counter space so this smaller espresso machine was ideal for me. I love the simplistic design; it steams milk, pulls shots, and also pulls hot water for americanos. It's the perfect starter machine for someone wanting to dive into the world of lattes, cappucinos, cortados, etc.! Also helpful to know it comes with a basic portafilter, tamp, and pitcher.

This is a great espresso machine for the value! It took me a bit to get used to it and learn how to use it, never owning an expresso or coffee machine before but it was easy to learn. One tip is to buy quality beans and grind them fresh, it drastically improves the quality and for not that much more in cost. I was initially debating between this one and the Bambino Plus because I wasn’t sure I would be able to get a good milk froth without the machine doing it for me and that it would be difficult to learn. But it wasn’t! Practice with some water and dish soap to get the technique and you’ll be creating perfect microfoam for your lattes in no time! This was a great purchase and investment. Breville has not let me down yet. Picture attached is the first latte I made (in a Starbucks cup to get the measurements right) and it tasted just like it was from a cafe!!

I love this machine. In my opinion, one of the best entry level espresso machines out there. If you pair this with a GOOD grinder, you'll be set for quite some time. The only downsides are the inability to control the temp and also having a solenoid valve to stop the water flow once it's done with a shot. But once you get used to these things there's no need to go to your local coffee shop any longer.

Its been over 6 months, this is the best coffee machine I have ever had, definitely worth the price, the shots have been delicious without a fail and it is a very fast machine.

This machine was easy to set up and use for the first time we use it daily with no problems so far we have owned the machine for 2 months we will review a year from now and let you know how it’s holding up

Love this baby! No more buying expensive coffee! This is a great top of the line beginner expresso machine! I am very happy with my purchase.

My first ever espresso machine. Great purchase! I paired it with the Breville Smart grinder Pro and its equivalent to having a $700 espresso machine. It does exactly what you need it to do: good coffee. I suggest you spend a good time patiently dialing your grind to find the perfect setting for its portafilter. I do grind size 9 at 16 seconds. It yield about 17g of ground.

I couldn’t been more happy with my purchase! Key is to get the coffee grounded for the espresso making - and machine does the amazing job to make it a perfect espresso & latte!

Makes the perfect espresso. i love the quality of it and tye fact that it doesnt take long to heat up.

This is our first espresso machine. It is very simple, sets pressure and temperature automatically, so no dials or gauges. It's easy to use, and makes coffee comparable to what we get in restaurants. .

This machice is a perfect for someone that is a beginner with espresso. For the price point, the Breville Bambino does everything that is needed from an espresso machine. If you are looking into getting into the espresso world and dont want to commit to a really expensive machine, this is your go to beginner espresso machine!

Got for my sister. She loves it and uses all the time.

Great expresso machine! It’s super easy to operate and super easy to clean. I love the taste of my Americano’s and lattes.

I love how compact it is. It’s easy to use and really cute!

Absolutely love this Bambino. So easy to use and having Espresso available to me at home at whatever time i wish i AMAZING. definitely recommend this product.

It's simple, quick, easy. Wish the press tool felt real but its just light plastic.

If you have a grinder then this is everything you could ever ask for in an espresso machine. It steams milk, it pulls a great shot once you’ve dialed it.

Buy a good grider $150+. Buy a scale that goes down to a tenth of a gram. Learn about brew rarios and times (grind size). Enjoy the best coffee youve ever tasted. Eventually…
