    If you are in the market for an espresso machine this is it. It is solid, sturdy, and works like a dream. The attached grinder has size settings, and the steamer is just plain fun to use. This machine is definitely getting a workout!

    Love this machine! Major upgrade from the one we had. Makes delicious espresso, we even like them better than Starbucks coffee. Very practical and easy to use. To my surprise upon registering the product we received a box full of accessories, mugs, scale, espresso glass shots, all the works to get us going. Definitely worth the investment.

    Have the same one at my office, bought it for my wife's birthday. Great for the home barista. If you don't know how to make a cappuccino or latte or whatever and don't want to learn, this is not for you. If you do and/or are willing to figure it out, it's a nice piece of machinery.

    Been a very nice addition to my coffee routine in the morning I know it’s a expensive purchase from the beginning but overall I think it will pay for itself in about six months the quality of coffee and coffee drinks that I’m getting out of the machine is very nice saving $ 5.00 per cup

    Much better than I expected for $600!! I work in a restaurant, and I am used to pulling espresso from machines that cost $10k!! I can make this coffee taste just as good as the one I make at work, and my wife is super happy! 100% worth the money!

    Once I got this "dialed in" (and it took some work/play) I've been pulling some amazing, super flavorful shots of espresso. And making some really great lattes, and mochas and... I guess you get the point. But don't buy this expecting to pull it out of the box and make a perfect shot on the first pull. You have to tune your grind level, your amount of coffee ground in to the portafilter, how long you let it go... There's a lot of great stuff on YouTube for this specific model in terms of how to pull the best shot, and with a little practice, I have at least one or two great doubleshots every morning.

    Got this for my husband as a gift. He had done all the prior research and watched videos and everything. He LOVES this machine. Our friends even tell us the coffee is better than going to a coffee shop! Very easy to use, easy to clean and makes great coffee!

    Awesome espresso machine. This is my second one. We have hard water in our area so if your like us, use the descaler as recommended and cleaning tabs. Easy to use: makes delicious espresso

    Keeping this part short, I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to making espresso. But all I had to do was watch a quick YouTube video on setting it up, and next thing I knew I was pouring shots. Of course also depends on what beans you buy, and if you prepare the coffee puck properly, but this machine really helps create some phenomenal espresso. Especially for someone that is coming from instant coffee and Starbucks. It is a big difference.
