This machine is amazing!! Get high quality beans and do a little experimenting with the settings until you find the sweet spot. Ive had it for two months now and works great!! I was spending 10.00 a day on Starbucks but no more!! I find that half and half gives you great foam!!

This machine is wonderful. It definitely takes some time and patience to dial it in. But once you figure it out, Starbucks or your go to coffee shop will be the thing of the past. I do recommend fresh beans from your local sourced coffee shop and manual dosing rather than store bought beans straight into the hopper and the machine doing the dosing for double shots. This machine is worth it for all the coffee I would be drinking out!

The machine is so awesome, but honestly it’s very very hard to get the right settings for the coffee to not come out bitter so it’s like a love and hate review like I think it would be awesome if I would get them Settings right for a good cup of coffee, but I’ve had it ready for two weeks and I still can’t get it so it’s a little frustrating. I’m hoping to get it soon. I’ve tried multiple different kinds of coffees beans

This machine is great. As a beginner, it has allowed me to learn about dialing in espresso as well as getting decent milk texture. Don't get me wrong, this is no prosumer grade machine, BUT it is a fully capable machine that will leave you satisfied with the quality of espresso it is able to make. My only complaint would be the included tamp is a tiny bit too small for the portafilter basket, so I would recommend picking up a 53mm one off of amazon or something like that. Not necessary, but definitely helpful. Overall I would definitely recommend this machine to anyone looking to get into the world of espresso!

Great machine, no problems with it at all. Easy to clean and best of all I save a lot of money from having to go to Starbucks often. Overall great experience and my house smells heavenly.

This is my second one of these and that's because they are fantastic! My first one lasted about 6 years, with daily abuse of about 5-6 espresso per day before it had power issues. I love the manual control and the steam/pressure is great too. My only complaint is (same for both units) that I sometimes find water on the counter behind the unit and I am unable to determine specifically why this happens (like am I allowing the tray to overfill or perhaps its not seated correctly), however find no common cause which I could correct. I would recommend this specific model to anyone who wants to make fresh ground espresso or americanos at home! Since original purchase, I find I am a "home" coffee snob now, used to visit the big "S" multi times daily, now I dread when I am away from home and have to order out.

I bought this when it went on sale. I’ve saved a lot of money by not buying Starbucks each morning and instead making our own Espressos. It’s paid for itself. I should gotten it sooner, even if I had to pay full price.

This is my second time to purchase this machine. First purchase was 4years ago and I used the machine for 3years without any problem then I moved to different state, so I gave old machine to my friend and purchased new one again! I could buy different espresso machine but choose same machine. Some of my friends have different kind of machine so I could try but this machine is the best.

This is an excellent machine and i have had several. Tip: instead of waiting 20 minutes like some recommend just run 1 single shot without coffee first then proceed. Makes all the difference

Owned this for a few months now and really enjoying it. Having fresh grounds for every coffee is awesome and having the optional porta filters is nice for pre-ground coffee too. Steamer wand works great too. We got a smaller, cheaper brand before this and, wow, what a difference! This is a high quality product, comes with a nice cleaning kit and extra stuff too. Highly recommend if you can swing the cost...was worth it to me!

Love it for strong coffee, espresso shots, and caramel macchiatos (textured milk with caramel). It is fun to use and makes incredible coffee like I experienced in France, Switzerland and Italy.
