Customers are saying
Customers recognize the Bambino Plus Espresso Machine as a great entry-level option, highlighting its ease of use and the milk frother's ability to make excellent cappuccinos. Its compact size with a large water tank is appreciated, along with its quick heating speed. However, some users find the machine a little too lightweight and mention that the descaling and cleaning notifications cannot be bypassed.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought as a Christmas present to wife, who used to batista. Researched before purchasing and decided this esspresso maker will, most likely, hold up for a long time. We already had a good grinder so didn't need that. It's simple with the auto wand but experienced people can use it manually. Bought on sale in a Best Buy store.

||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 6 months of use, I realize I do not want to be a Barista after all. Pretty easy to use, however, I have not been able to get the proportions right to obtain a strong espresso shot, using all the tools and videos and premium coffee, or getting the milk hot and frothy enough. I also have a Philips automatic espresso machine (twice the price - had it since 2020). It also doesn't really hit the spot, but it is a lot easier and more automatic, and while a bit more cleanup, less prep. The Bambino is a pretty little machine and looks nice on my coffee bar area, but it's more work than I wanted.

The best compact coffee maker

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was quite easy to set up. I use it on a daily basis for my wife and I. Came from an aero press and I must say being able to steam my own milk has really upped my barista game at home. If your coffee doesn't come out the way you expect at first, double check your grind before you blame the coffee machine.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat little espresso machine

I would recommend this to a friendBroken in 6 months
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Coffee machine itself is great once you get the hang of it. Machine broke after 6 months of careful use and proper cleaning. Breville will not replace after 90 days, it has to go in for service which takes 4-6 weeks door to door. Disappointing for expensive equipment. Wish I spent a little more on a more reliable brand
