Works great. The only thing you need to do is find the proper settings for the coffee beans you like to use to get the perfect shot. Stunning double shots through and through. Easy to clean.

Easy to use, and makes great espresso. We've had ours for just over 2 years now and have had no issues with some fairly heavy regular use. Just recently it has started to show signs that it might be wearing out. I would buy again at the current price point with as well as it has held up.

Great machine. Only drawback is the learning curve, but once you get past that it’s incredible

Had to do trial and error to dial the right pressure, amount of coffee, and I did a lot of changes with the inner burr as well. The ideal is #4 for inner burr and #7 for the outer adjustment, but it really depends on your beans. There are a lot of tutorials on tiktok and youtube on how to do it :) all in all the machine works great

This is my 2nd machine within 2 years. The 1st i bought with warranty. Warranty almost expired when i noticed it was taking longer to warm the milk. Took back to Best Buy and got a full refund and used the refund to buy another. Best Buy customer service at Gilbert, AZ is excellent. This machine seems to have been improved over the last 1. My girlfriend noticed, too. Does a great job grinding the beans, extracting coffee, and frothing milk.

This makes some of the best fresh ground coffee. I've had it for a month now and coffee has never tasted better! I like espresso on occasion but use this for coffee mostly. Watch videos on how to use it and that will help you get started fast. If you currently use K-Cups, this will save you money over time as you just use whole coffee beans.

It takes a little bit to dial the machine in, but once dialed in it makes a great cup of expresso!

Makes excellent coffee for people who want their coffee made right but don't have time to research ten million options. If you have more money, than you have time, and you enjoy a good cup of coffee and quality... get this thing. It is basic, and classic too... really no frills when you think about it or compare it to the k-cups, pods, etc. This is fresh beans, ground up and brewed into espresso. That's it.

Haven’t been to a coffee shop since we got it. We love it so much.

This machine is great. Coffee always tastes wonderful and it’s fairly easy to use. We use this as our secondary only because we are lazy and this one take longer.

So this is an amazing machine, the trick is you have to learn how to use it from a pro. My brother came over and spent 3 full hours to test and do coffee runs, and finally we nailed it. The trick is you have to get the grind correct, the pressure, and temperature. We discovered that running the machine 20 minutes before starting to use is what you do to make the machine come up to temp, then running the steamer before and after every use makes your water temp reach the max. Also make sure to weigh the coffee with a scale for each use to know the exact measurements. So the bottom line it’s a science to get it just right with the perfect taste, so if you are that person that looks for perfection and you have patience, then this is for you. If you are a person who drinks drip coffee from a Mr coffee machine, then this is not for you!

I was going to Starbucks everyweek on my days off! I wouldn't just order for myself but for family as well! Obviously this was getting expensive and It was a hit or miss if with the consistency of the coffee at Starbucks. I purchased a simpler 150$ espresso machine and was very happy but the level of control or ease (especially with the built in grinder) wasn't there. I decided to upgrade to The Barista Express. Honestly this was one of the best purchases I have ever made. I actually enjoy the coffee I make more than I do from Starbucks. Its definitively an investment but you will not regret it. There are some start up cost such as towels and a puck bucket but looks up this product on Amazon and look at the top review to get a good idea of what you will need. The post goes into much more detail. I bought mine from BestBuy because I love their return policy with the warranty you purchase with them.

The Barista Express makes café-quality espresso right at home. The built-in grinder is super convenient, and the milk frother works great for lattes and cappuccinos. It takes a little practice to dial in your grind and shot, but once you get it, the results are fantastic. Worth every penny!

Awesome device. Pulling espresso shots is a science that I am diving into.

Takes espresso making to a new level , set is pretty easy with the included directions, well built and worth the price for sure , top notch at this price point

I love it best thing ever! I’m an old employee for Dutch bros coffee and I will say this little thing has helped me curb going to other places for coffee since I don’t get it free any more. highly recommend :)

I got this amazing espresso machine on Christmas eve! I really like it!!!

I knew I wanted this machine from the day I first saw it. It takes a little patience to learn and master, but the process is very rewarding. The built in grinder and milk frother allowed me to simplify my coffee equipment to one machine. Highly recommend this to anyone who loves coffeehouse drinks and has the desire to learn the craft.
