Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great machine!! We had to return the first one but with our protection plan, it was promptly replaced. This machine makes a great cup of coffee!!

I have owned this espresso machine for nearly a year and I still love it. Literally every day I am able to pull consistent shots of espresso and drink them at their peak freshness. I am able to grind beans and control everything until I find the perfect balance for the beans I am using at the time. I have had zero issues with quality or maintenance and this machine is probably the best thing I bought for myself back in 2018. If you love espresso but aren't a jerk about it, this machine will literally suit all of your needs and the price is fair for everything that you're getting.... Sure there are more advanced or fully automatic machines out there but don't get caught up in those other bells and whistles.... Really think about what your personal espresso habits and needs are and then you will find that this machine can really do it all! Another thing that I really enjoy (that I hadn't previously considered prior to owning) is how convenient it is to have access to boiling hot water pretty much instantly. I use the hot water for obvious things like tea, but I also use it when I need boiling water for pastas and other cooking and it has made everything so much easier and faster. Even when you have to clean the machine, the directions are very clear, make sense and it's super easy to do. This machine is super dear to my heart and I love everything about it....If you are considering it, I would say just straight up buy it. #treatyoself #youdeserveit

This coffee machine is amazing and pretty simple to figure out how to use! Love that I can grind my coffee bean to my liking and the flavor is so amazing… I’m not barista but this is soooo helpful for iced coffees and lattes (also when you register you get a free bag of coffee from Breville) and it is a bit spendy but definitely worth it!

I bought this Brevelle Expresso machine back in June. Tgis is the best coffee maker tgat I have ever owned. It makes the perfect cup of coffee every time. Once you get your ground size and amount down . It grounds the coffee perfectly and the milk frother is Awsom as well. Couldn't ask for a better Expresso machine. It you are on the fence about getting one go for it you will not be disappointed. Go get you one!!!

I recently bought the Breville Barista Express Espresso Machine, and it has completely transformed my morning routine. The integrated grinder is a lifesaver, giving me the freshest grounds for a robust flavor every time. With 15 bars of pressure, every espresso shot is perfectly extracted, rich and creamy. The milk frother? Just wow! It whips up silky smooth froth for my lattes and cappuccinos that rivals any coffee shop. If you’re a coffee enthusiast looking to elevate your home barista skills, this machine is a game changer. Highly recommend!

I love this expresso machine. It produces an excellent tasting expresso. The correct pressure of the extraction can be controlled by how fine the bean grind, and also how hard I pack the ground beans. In other words, I am able to make the perfect expresso. The frother works very well also. This is my second purchase of this model. The first one lasted about 5 years until the pump began to fail. But that was after thousands of expressos... This is not a fully automatic machine in that you have to pack and then discard the puck. But I prefer it that way as I have much more control and can generally make a stronger expresso than with a fully automatic machine. Also this machine is vary attrctive on the countertop.

I bought this for my son and daughter-in-law for Christmas and they absolutely love it. They say it works great and so easy to use. They also said the drinks are delicious.

Amazing espresso machine. Never had any problems with it and the quality is amazing. This will get you brewing.

This Breville is a game changer for my wife. She’s able to curate her coffee to her moods easily. Make many types of coffee without it tasting like poo. Pricey but well worth it.

I just got this machine in last week and the first day it took a little getting used to because I had to read the owner manual and figure out the grind of the beans and what not. That being said the machine has been making amazing coffee so far I do have barista experience so for some it may take longer to learn how to use it. This machine makes STRONG espresso but that’s how I like it. Overall set up was not too bad. My only concern is making sure the espresso shots are under the correct amount of pressure. The shots when being pulled should be in the gray zone when pressurized and my shots when they first start pulling it takes a while for the shots to start flowing then the little meter shoots up to the gray zone I think this is normal but I’m still trying to figure out this machine :) it’s so much better than my $100 mr. coffee machine I got back then it Pails in comparison to the breville.

I can make quality espresso and americano drinks at home each morning. Pretty easy to setup and use, comes with quick start card. Really pack down espresso grinds to get full pressure extraction. Should pay for itself after 100 drinks as opposed to going to Starbucks. Great machine, good quality. Went on sale for $115 off, which made me finally pull the trigger.

Ive had a blast with this machine, easy to use and makes me love making coffee everyday

That awesome. I can’t complain is all I was need on the morning to star my wonderful day complete recommend this is no just a coffee machine. This is awesome.and the price. Is excellent

As an espresso enthusiast, i couldn't be happier with an entry level semi-automatic espresso maker. love the grinder, spectacular design and solid build quality. it will take some time to get it right, but once you get there, you cant stop making coffee. be aware that after a while using this machine, you won't be satisfied with coffee that you get from cafes.

A great starter machine if you locate the right beans to make the best espresso of your dreams. You might or might want to upgrade your game to include some upgrades to the machine, but overall I have to say you can dial in something to stain your teeth for the next 10 years without missing a day. My favorite is a double shot with Whipped Cream or an Espresso Con Panna as Starbucks calls it. Except I would eat with a spoon. Some great latte's can be had with this machine.

So glad I read all the reviews on the web and recommendations for the best "at home" espresso machine. Glad I did because so many sites had this machine on their top 5 or top 10 list. I just made my kitchen so much more enjoyable and pleasing to the eye. Best investment I've made so far. Unit looks professional/industrial which is a major plus but doesn't take up a huge amount of counter space. This thing is the real deal! Takes some reading on how to set up the bean grind (course/fine) and amount dial for the actual bean that you're using but after 2 or 3 attempts I had my machine dialed in to the bean that I chose to purchase: Illy italian espresso dark roast (from World Market or Target brick and mortar stores). Again lots of different "high quality" beans to choose from, some purchased online, some from your local retailers (if you're lucky). Again do some reading on the "best" beans for home espresso machine and you'll be set as far as the bean choice. So then I bought some caramel, pumpkin and chocolate syrups online (Torani and Ghirardelli: same stuff Starbucks uses only cheaper). Now I can make authentic lattes and mochas at home and no joke, they "rival" the drinks that I've been getting at Starbucks! The key if you read enough reviews online etc. about making espresso at home is the freshness and "roast date" of the beans. The Illy beans that I bought and have been using are way "fresher" than the beans that Starbucks uses which is why I can make a better tasting (fresher) latte' at home. Buy this unit if you're serious about making "high quality" espresso drinks at home... you will not be disappointed...

This was a gift for my husband. He has enjoyed trying different coffee beans and strengths of coffee. It will always be in our home. We love Breville products!!

Bought this as a graduation present. Used one of these a few times when at my in-laws. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this espresso maker. It takes a little finesse to get the grinds dialed in for the dose, but this will change a little depending on the beans you use. Steaming wand works amazingly, makes espresso that is better than Starbucks (they burn their beans), and makes an amazing crema. Absolutely love this machine, we use it daily!

As long as you can learn how to use it well you will have a perfect cup anytime you make your coffee, the frother and cup that it comes with works really well compared to my last espresso machine and the grinder has made my coffee even better with fresh ground espresso. Only real complaint is how often i need to fill the water but thats an easy fix. With a floater valve, an inline filter and using a t valve to split the line from the fridge/dishwasher water to also go to this you no longer have to worry about that, only the regular cleaning. All in all ill never have to buy coffee at a cafe anymore

Amazing, my husband loves it. I gave this as a gift for Christmas because he loved to make coffee and now he is learning more skills with this coffee machine
