Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

I honestly thought this was something we would like but that it would likely just sit on our counter and look pretty. We literally threw our coffee brewer away and use this exclusively. Every single morning. Super easy to use and makes the best coffee. Every time people come over, they are super impressed and always ask for a coffee or latte. So glad we bought this!

Absolutely wonderful product, it makes the best espresso and latte.

Great buy! we use this brand over the last 18 years. works great. Best coffee beans to be used are without any coat on them... because it may clog the grinder. overall phenomenal.

My partner and I wanted to get an espresso machine and didn't want to go too beginner, but didn't want to pay over $1,000 for it, either. After doing research, we chose this product, and we are so glad we did! You have to follow the instructions to make sure it's set up right and you have to know how to use all the functions like grind size and grind amount to make sure you're getting the most out of your system. Once you have everything in place, it is consistently amazing espresso every single time! Hang in there if it takes a few tries to get it right, don't blame the machine!

This machine makes amazing coffee but is a little bit on the louder side. First one lasted about 3000-4000 espresso shots.

We love our Barista Express. Arrives in January 2024 for my wife as a push present. However, this machine comes with a learning curve!!! I would only recommend this machine for coffee lovers that want to expand their horizons with toying with different coffee beans, grind sizes, and types of coffee. It took me about 3 months to really dial in the coffee process on this machine. The first time I used it it took me 6-8 pulls of espresso to get the desired output from the machine. Now that we have found a handful of beans we love and have figured out the process, we absolutely love our machine. I think my wife has been to Starbucks only a handful of times in the year and a half that we've had this machine which was worth it lol.

Best machine for making coffee at home! Took me about 2-3 days to figure out the settings I needed for the specific coffee beans I buy but once the settings are good the rest is magic. Great for saving money instead of buying coffee out everyday! Easy to clean.

Great machine! Feel like a barista! I have had this machine for 8 months and have cleaned it twice. Easy to clean and use. LOVE this expresso machine. My family loves it too! My teen girls make all the lattes and americanos without the cost of going to Starbucks:))

Great espresso machine. Nice build quality and comes with all accessories you need. Grinder at its best for freshest ground coffee and lattes, espresso comes out just like your corner coffee shop. Just need some getting used to the manual settings. I think you would get back your money’s worth in few months. Totally worth it.

Bought this coffee machine for me and my husband after our daily coffee stand shut down for good. We use it about 4 times a day and absolutely love it. We can now make it better than our coffee stand could, and it’s cheaper. I wouldn’t consider any other brand or model. This has everything for a simple americano or latte. Maintenance is easy.

This turned out to be a great gift for my wife. She’s enjoying learning about all of the features this machine has. It’s taking practice to truly get it down, but she’s loving the process.

Great machine! In my experience, it makes better quality espresso when using freshly ground coffee beans than using pre-ground but still good quality in any case. There may be cheaper options but I think this machine pays by itself after some time.

excelent coffee machine. High qualityconstrution material, good functionalities

Purchased for my girlfriends birthday. I’m not to much of a coffee person but the stuff that comes from this is absolutely amazing. It has been very difficult for us to make espresso with the single wall cups but the double wall makes it a breeze. She states that the espresso from this is as good if not better than Starbucks. I would recommend even though the high price tag of the item.

Amazing espressos! It takes a few tries to see what grind setting your beans need but after that it's amazing. I don't buy iced coffee drinks out anymore! Some say fresh beans are the only way to make espresso in this machine, but I disagree. Yes, fresh roasted beans definitely give you a different texture, but store beans do well, to me anyways. Just remember to follow the directions in the book and you should do well. Also, its normal for the drip tray to have water in it, just empty it after a few days. I'm so glad I made this purchase.

Such a great performing espresso maker. Easy to use and such great tasting espressos. My only suggestion is to follow the instructions and prep the machine by pre-heating with the steamer.

Excellent coffee machine makes a wonderful gift at Christmas time

love it, use it everyday to make my lattes at home worth it

This is a very good machine I like the way it works.
