    I've bought the second machine for my son. This is the best Espresso Machine I have ever used. I've been using it for about five years. We drink 5-10 cups of late every day and it works with no issue. Usually we make coffee with Lavazza Qualità Oro coffee beans and whole milk but sometimes we drink decaffeinated coffee and this machine allows you to use ground coffee as well. Finally it has everything you need to make delicious coffee.

    This machine is fantastic for the coffee aficionado. Able to pour the perfect shot every time, and the frother is a good asset as well and makes perfect micro foam for your lattes. The conical burr grinder is a nice addition too providing fresh beans for every cup. A great mid tier espresso machine capable of delivering exceptional lattes and other coffeehouse favorites.

    This machine Looks great in any kitchen. Most of Breville’s appliances are manufactured using attractive stainless steel, a durable, easy to clean material, meaning quality is second to none! I'm a relative bew user of this product, dont have anything negative to say beside that it takes a bit of countertop real estate, and the higher price point. So far the coffe is really different than a regular machine

    Pulls great shots of Espresso and that is really the reason I purchased it. My wife however likes drinks requiring the use of the steam wand and although it works Ok it takes some getting use to. It doesn't provide a great amount of steam and you have to play around with the dial a little bit before you can adequately produce enough for a single serve beverage. But for a shot of Espresso its great

    Easy to use, and makes great espresso. We've had ours for just over 2 years now and have had no issues with some fairly heavy regular use. Just recently it has started to show signs that it might be wearing out. I would buy again at the current price point with as well as it has held up.

    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.

    I love it. The whole family loves it. We make probably 10 cups of either espresso or cappuccino a day - both decaf and regular (using the automatic grinder for regular; switching the filter for preground decaf). Both amazing. It's a little messy but worth it. I have been wanting one of these for a couple of years and my husband got it for me for Mother's Day (on sale). Expensive but so, so yummy!

    The Breville Barista Express Espresso Machine is a well-rounded option for those serious about making high-quality espresso at home. Its combination of features, build quality, and customizable options makes it a strong contender in its price range. However, potential buyers should be prepared for a learning curve and consider the space and noise factors before making a purchase. Overall, it's a solid investment for coffee enthusiasts who value control and quality in their brewing process.

    This was my first ever espresso machine. I bought it for my wife for Mothers day and she loves it. I use it daily as well and i couldnt say anything that has a fault. It looks nice, pressures well and makes a great shot of espresso. All around great product.

    I give it only 5 stars because it's all I'm allowed, but it deserves 10 stars; easy to use, easy to clean, makes superb coffee, I also make tea with the hot water spout, and hot chocolate with the steam wand, at first I taught this machine was to expensive; after using it for the fist time I understood I got more than I paid for; LOVE IT, no regrets, highly recommend it. :)

    This was a great addition to my kitchen and daily life. So easy to use and very little to clean. I look forward to my delicious americano drink every morning. Everyone in my family also enjoys the process of making it. It is very fun to be able to make a professional cup of coffee in your own kitchen whenever you want it!

    MUST HAVE FOR COFFEE SNOBS! LOL Okay, bad way to start, but this unit has already paid itself off by eliminating the need to go to starbucks and the coffee is 1000x better. I can't say I've had much user for the frother (I usually just make espresso and americanos) but the unit has been solid, easy to clean, and issue free.

    Definitely worth it! Just takes some getting used to get to the right shot that you are looking for but honestly after using this, I am not even satisfied with starbucks coffee anymore! Also this manual one is better than the preset/techy one. Get some good beans and you will be in love!

    This coffee maker is spectacular. It doesn't make noise and the coffee comes out super delicious. Perfect for when you have company and you don't want to waste the coffee because it makes 1 to 2 cups.
