This machine is awesome, took a minute to figure out how to use but its amazing! Great purchase and makes great lattes, saves me from going to Starbucks, you can also sign up with a breville account to get 2 free bags of beans.

First espresso machine. All I had before were French press. It took us a few tries and a full bag of coffee beans to finally get it right. But now every cup is a wonder. Amazing frothiness and amazing taste, I haven't gone back to Starbucks in some time now, especially after I started adding peppermint syrup to my coffee.

This machine changes the way we’ve seen coffee. We were everyday Keurig drinkers before and this coffee makes us never want to go back to that. Not to mention the amount of wasted plastic every time we have a cup of coffee from Keurig. You will not regret this machine. Buy it!

The barista express is a great espresso machine, it comes with many friendly shot customization, but also some advanced ones once you get used to it.
As long as you have good beans and a good Puck prep, it makes some of the best shots I've ever tasted, and even if the steam wand isn't fully automatic, and requieres a bit of getting used to it, but once you do, you can completely control your milk foam texture depending on what you want it for

Phenomenal espresso for the price. I was a barista for five+ years in some great shops, and it’s nice getting quality espresso at home without spending $10k on a professional machine. Recommend getting nice beans, Ruta Maya espresso beans are yummy and Farro signature roast is a lot lighter but makes great shots and Americanos for chill morning coffee sipping.

My husband received this gift for the Holidays and he is a coffee addict. Going from
A Nespresso machine to a Breville has been amazing. He loves his coffee and getting to try new beans and grind them fresh makes it all worth. I’m not a coffee drinker but he has made me a gorgeous hot chocolate using the attachment that heats and froths your milk.

AMAZING! The quality of coffee is unmatched, safe to say I don't ever have to go to another Starbucks or coffee shop ever again. Turns on in 5 seconds, grinds & brews amazingly without any hassle. The Frother time is adjusted to your liking which is great

Undoubtedly this is a great entry-level espresso machine. It seems to be very durable, strong, and of excellent overall quality. In my opinion, it offers a good compromise between a fully automated versus an entirely manual process. If maintained properly, I'm sure it will last for many long years. Brewing coffee on this machine will require a fair amount of time to learn and use, but the result will make it worth it. If used correctly, it will make excellent espressos and lattes.
The only con that I have with this machine is the steamer. While it creates excellent foaming and texture with the milk, it takes some time to produce the needed steam pressure. The maintenance process also takes time, but it is expected for these types of machines.
Overall, I'm delighted with this product.

I got tired of spending $100+ a week at my local Starbucks. If I was going to purchase an espresso maker, I definitely wanted a quality product. After researching multiple products, I decided on this Breville.
It took me a few try’s to learn about grind levels and range pour. Once I figured it out, the quality of my espresso pour and taste became better and better. There are some great tutorial videos on YouTube.
Overall the quality and taste of my espressos have been night and day in comparison to my local coffee shops. Making a fresh doppio in the morning has become one of my favorite things to do to start my day.

I can finally make coffee shop quality drinks at home. After buying this, I was very excited to go purchase all different types of beans and syrups, since I could make really good drinks and finally taste the flavor in the beans. Very easy to learn how to use.

Every morning I make 2 coffee drinks, one for me and one for my wife. A Caramel Latte and an americano, takes less than 5 minutes. Took a few days to dial in the grinder and dose, but it came with appropriate tools to adjust the grounds to the correct dose. I highly recommend this, I have completely forgotten about Starbucks, and save $15 every day. The ROI on this machine will only take a few months, and I’m excited about that.

Best Espresso Machine I have ever owned. This is a life savior for me. I can’t think of how much money I have spent out there on coffee. Now, with this high quality espresso Im saving a lot and the quality of the coffee is so great that I don’t need to go out to get coffee. I rather make an espresso at home than anywhere else. If you can afford one, I can honestly say that this is a great espresso machine and will make your life a lot easier and comfortable. Thank You Best Buy and Thank you Breville for this awesome espresso machine. Merry Christmas!

I've had my eye on this Breville espresso machine for several years now and I finally mustered up the courage to purchase it. It was worth the buy! Everything was in the box, the instructions walked me through setting up my machine perfectly and I followed everything exactly as written. I bought the unit yesterday, and I was able to make my first latte today and it was the tastiest and freshest espresso I've ever made! As long as you maintain and clean your unit often, it will continue to work beautifully.
