Customer Ratings & Reviews

We have had this for a month and we love it. We upgraded this from a previous Breville 800XL that we had for over five years, but it broke down. The grinder works well, but the one gripe that I have is that the grinds overflow and this causes some waste. While you could dial the amount of grinds that come out, you are trying to get that pressure dial right in the sweet spot. Anyways, we love it and we hope it will last us a while.

Used to be a Starbucks snob up to 2-3 times a day, then the pandemic set in. At first we couldn’t go get coffee, so decided to give the machine a try..... We’ll worth it! Perfect solution since we’re working from home indefinitely & don’t really want to go out & about. Read instructions carefully. But some cheap beans to test the grinder out. We ended up settling it to the highest level. Don’t press too hard when stomping espresso, just push down with your finger; you’ll end up with a perfect shot. We also found that using the dual wall double shot filter pours the best shots.

She is LOVING this! Experimenting with the machine and getting all the stuff. I was surprised that it did not come with the frothing cup, but it was easy enough to get

Great deal and a great product! Easy set up and great quality machine.

A touch on the spendy side, but this machine is idiot-proof and makes a delicious cup of espresso.

I love the coffee this Espresso Machine makes. Well made and easy to use. Aside from looking good in the kitchen it makes a great cup of coffee.

I am a coffee addict, I would spend hundreds of dollars a month on Starbucks or other coffee shops. I like great coffee, I am disgusted by donkin, McDonald's or other mediocre massively sold coffee. So I needed something that would not make want to go get a latte somewhere. This machine does that, granted that you take the time to learn and invest in good quality beans. The haven't bought a cup of coffee since I purchased this machine 3 months ago, needless it will pay for itself. This machine Is capable of producing a high quality latte in the comfort of your kitchen. I couldn't recommend it more, if you love good coffee this is for you.

Great coffee. Great intro to home barista. Cleaning is a little cumbersome.

Excellent machine! My homemade brew is better than what I can get at the store.

We love it. It makes the best cappuccino and coffee. It worth it.

This is a fantastic espresso maker! There was a bit of a learning curve coming from my first entry-level espresso maker, but I was able to enjoy my first good cup of espresso within an hour of unboxing! I’m still learning all the tricks and nuances of this machine, but am very impressed with this purchase so far.

I think This espresso coffee machine is really awesome

Love this coffee machine, it does what it promises to do and more!

Easy to use, makes great espressos. Frothing the milk is super easy too and comes out great! We love experimenting with different beans for different flavors-it also grinds the beans quickly without a mess.

I got the Breville Barista Express when it was on sale and I don’t regret buying it! Learning how to dial in the right settings was frustrating at first but is now second nature. This machine pays off itself after making drinks everyday for 3 months. Buy it!

Amazing coffee as long as you work to dial in your espresso correctly, the steam wand leaves a little to be desired because it’s only 1 hole

Works really well, fairly easy to operate and makes good espresso.

Great machine. Easy to use. The upper burr is had to get off. My grinder stopped working so i called Breville and their customer service is amazing. My machine is on its way back. It was a great experience as far as service is concerned. You must keep the machine clean and do the cleaning of it and descali because when u pay this much taking care of it should be a pleasure. I hope it lasts several. When i wake up the machine calls my name and tells me its latte time!! Love it!!

I LOVE this machine. I’ve had it since late 2020 and it runs as great as day 1. Took some experimentation to get the settings right and you have to adjust the grind based on the beans but other than that I feel like a pro and have been making delicious espressos, lattes, americanos, and shaken espressos which has almost entirely replaced my afternoon adventures to the “astral male deers” at least twice a week. Been very easy to clean and replace the filter

I am very picky about my coffee. If you want a really good espresso maker for the money , ease of use , ease of cleaning after every brew , ease of cleaning maintainence and on top of that with a burr grinder to grind your coffee before every brew this is the one. Yes it is a bit pricey but it's worth the money and if you love coffee then you will use it everyday and not want to drink coffee outside anymore. I own a keurig, ninja coffee maker and delonghi espresso maker and have used each on of them for years and then moved to this .
