    Absolutely love this! Breville makes awesome appliances. Not only are they classic looking and well made, but easy to operate and clean as well. This makes the best espresso. I love that you grind fresh beans in the same machine. It was expensive but worth every penny. I’m very happy with this purchase!

    I’ve had this for a few weeks and it’s been great. I enjoy all the features to include dialing in the grind from the side adjustment and burr adjustment. I would recommend finding a local fresh coffee bean roaster and or order fresh beans online. The main reason I purchased this appliance is because I was spending $6 a day on coffee. It’s fun being able to customize my own drink flavor and use separately bought tools like a better tamper, a WDT, and a distributor. Well done Breville!

    Hey wassup so a little about this product. Alright so, It’s a bit noisy and shaky on start up. It would dispense a lot of water, so get a water filter, otherwise you’ll see yourself wasting lots of water. Grinder is nice, pressure meter is nice, steamer is nice. Still a manual espresso maker even thou you have auto option, but like all machines, it’s takes time to figure out. It’s my 3rd espresso maker, and by far the most expensive. You can’t go wrong with this product.( basically pays itself after 2 months for daily coffee drinkers. )

    Such a great espresso machine!! As long as you keep up with maintenance cleaning, this machine is solid. Since I live in household of 6 coffee drinkers haha we needed to upgrade on a milk frother but other than that, pretty neat espresso machine. I’d recommend buying Lavazza espresso beans and you will get the perfect coffee, latte, cappuccino, or macchiato with this machine. Great for teas as well.

    I’m so on love with my beautiful machine. This machine has a grinder for coffee beans which it’s much fresher. It can brew one or two shots. Wand for frothing milk. And hot water option. You’ll need to read instructions thoroughly.

    I loved everything about this machine. It took me a while to understand how to pull a great shot, however, despite my ignorance at first I was still about to learn so much because of how user-friendly this machine is. It is truly excellent and I couldn't be happier, especially as a first-time espresso enthusiast.

    if you're concered about how long a morning coffee would take, just know... there is a learning curve "youtube videos will help, but if you want to save on those $5-8 coffees you buy- you get the same great taste and this machine pays for itself. Its not CHEAP but its soooo worth it! nothing like a freshly made latte, cappuccino, espresso shot, once you get past the learning curve, you'll never want another coffee from anywhere else... :)

    You have a beautiful machine here. I've been using the original since 2019 and couldn't be happier with the espresso it creates. Because it is so simple to operate, anyone can become a barista, and I really miss having it while I am away from home. My cleaning sensor experience has been uneven. The sensor light will not turn off sometimes, even after I have completely cleaned it; other times, it will turn off at random. This has no effect on me because I just clean mine once a month. The espresso machine and the milk frother both operate beautifully, which is, after all, the most important thing.

    This is a great espresso machine. So far I’ve really enjoyed the quality of the espresso. However, I wish there was more information of pressure of tamping the grounds and just info or recommendations around they type of bean you are using and what would be the best grind amount and fineness of grind etc. The learning curve has been difficult and a bit complicated and the grounds spill out and over when grinding to the necessary level for a double shot espresso. These are just some minor irritating things I haven’t quite gotten the hang of the milk frother yet but in time I’ll master it. Overall still like it, maybe would be better suited at closer to 5 or 600 dollars max.

    This machine has saved me so many trips to the coffee shop. I used to be someone who payed $6 for coffee every day. Now, I prefer the coffee I make at home versus something I’d purchase. It’s beginner friendly and effective. I definitely have been getting my money’s worth and recommend anyone who’s a coffee lover to purchase.

    I really enjoy this espresso machine. It works just as it should. It has quickly become one of my favorite appliances. You can also tell that a lot of thought went into this machine. Just a really nice piece of equipment that is well worth it's price. If your coffee at Starbucks costs $5, it pays for itself after 140 drinks. Well worth it in my opinion. Read all the directions and make use of the troubleshooting chart. You'll be a coffee barista in no time!
