Customer Ratings & Reviews

The machine its really easy to use and clean, well built and most importantly brews the coffe perfectly and delicious.

This is the best thing I've ever purchased. I make my espresso every morning. Make sure you turn it on 20 minutes before you use it. Before every cup you make, just let hot water run, so the residue from the last washes off.

This is a great machine for people who like the real deal. I had a fully automated machine and a Nespresso which are simpler, but didn't satisfy me. I read the instructions pretty quickly and got this machine set up and turning out great espresso, crema and all, within a couple of hours.

i am a manager at a coffee house and this machine right here is honestly amazing! It makes the espresso takes better then the espresso machine does at my work! And that should say something! I love waking up and making my self a latte! Hot/iced or even frozen if you have a blender! I truly love my espresso machine!

I really enjoy the espressos that I can make with this machine. It’s important to remember that using it is like a relationship; you'll need to learn through trial and error. However, once you figure it out, both you and your family will love it!

Great beginner machine. Definitely pays for itself rather than going to Starbucks everyday. Takes a little effort but one you get the hang of it its fast and simple.

10/10 coffee made my whole morning experience better totally worth the investment high quality coffee

Its definitely a high quality esspreso machine. I haven't gone to Starbucks since I bought this. My lattes taste amazing and the frother great. You just have to read the manual throughly to understand how to pull a prefect esspreso. Fine grind the beans & program it to a higher temp. Follow the manual instructions for cleaning. I was looking for an upgrade from a Mr coffee machine & this exceeded my expectations.

A good one to start as an amateur barista, practicing various concepts in coffee culture.

Love this machine. Durable, have cleaned, descaled, and changed out filter three times since purchase. If you wait too long, the machine will tell you when no coffee comes out! No biggie, perform the maintenance and you’re good to go. Be sure to have the supplies ready to go. This machine is for coffee lovers. Makes great coffee, even if you do no know how to dial in your coffee by using the provided expreso pressure measured cup, but if you want to become a coffee savant, this is the machine for you.

Excellent machine. Easy to learn how to use. Will always choose Breville Espresso machines

Espresso machines are expensive, period. If you want the best basic one, go with this Breville Barista Express. It does all the basics for being able to make really good cafe style espresso drinks (much better than starbucks!) The only downside is that you have to learn how to dial in coffee beans and steam milk, which comes with a lot of practice. So this is not the easiest to use of machines. But the more automated ones are much more expensive. Great quality, though, and looks great on the kitchen counter, too.

I freaking love this machine. As a coffee lover i have to say that this is the perfect semi professional espresso machine to have at home..... i dont know what else to say.... sure some stuff could be better like having a double boiler and better grindr but just to have them there in one machine with that price its all u would ever need.

Wife was a Starbucks fanatic and got this to help save money. Took some time to learn but now she says my lattes are about the same! Got some accessories that helped make it easier

Works AMAZING. Really easy to use. Set high standards to how I drink my coffee!

Very satisfied and the machine worked great and looking forward in being the next winner.

This is an amazing espresso machine. We find out that to reach the espresso level you need to play with the grind amount, and a really fine grind setting the machine in number 1 which is the finest. We also noticed that when it comes to coffee beans, our espressos come out better when you have a dry bean instead of an oily one this also affected on reaching the espresso quality we were looking for. We prefer to do manual grinding by holding the portafilter to control the amount of coffee we put in instead of leaving it there for an automatic grinding. So far we are enjoying our espresso machine and I would definitely recommend it.

We’ve always owned a Breville espresso coffee machines but this has been a game changer!!! Super happy with our purchase! Love the option to grind our beans and the coffee comes out tasty!!! The aroma of making the coffee at home is the best!!!! Our last Breville coffee maker lasted over 10 years!!!

It is fun to use and produces a good quality espresso. I got a funnel for the portafilter because the coffee falls out. But the funnel does not fit on the holder. So now I hold the portafilter. Also, the tamper is not good enough. It is too light and it feels like 52mm so I got a better tamper. But they can either include a better tamper or not include one. So I will probably end up getting a grinder. But that is the idea of this machine. It is a good entry level to judge yourself to see how serious you want to get about the hobbies. Overall I am very happy with it. I've been doing lots of shot for fun as much as to drink.

I love my expresso machine. I learned to use it real quick and never have issues with it.
