    The grinder and espresso combination is a perfect match. The grinder is of great quality and offers a large variation on grind. The espresso is perfect once you get the grind dialed in. I don’t usually froth milk but when I do the cup made is better than any coffee shop. This machine will help you avoid wasting $5 on a cup of coffee every day. If you combine it with great quality coffee bean, there is nothing better.

    I have looked at this machine for quite a while. I am glad I finally gave in and bought it. Do I still get coffee out? Yes of course, but it’s wonderful when you want a good cup of coffee at home. It took a few grinds to get the settings correct but get it, you won’t be disappointed.

    I LOVE THIS MACHINE!!! Don’t let the price scare you away, it’s well worth it! It’ll take a while before you learn how make an awesome cup of joe. But don’t be disappointed, you’ll still be able to get a decent cup of coffee! I haven’t been to Starbucks since I bought this machine and I’ve saved well over a thousand dollar. Give it a try, you won’t regret it

    This totally changed my coffee addiction. It is really improving your barista skills on one hand and your addiction on the other. You can create wide range variety of espresso based drinks as you want. The best part is it has single and dual layer espresso pods for brewing which enable you to brew your coffee with different grind size. Also no need to have a grinder attached, which enables you to grind fresh coffee all the time. I highly recommend you to buy and enjoy :)

    Fabulous machine. Grinder has both fine and coarse adjustments, I’ve had no problem tailoring to very different beans. Milk steamer well situated and flawless. Boiler allows for consistent pulls with exceptional results. Very consistent once you’ve locked in your parameters. Overall an excellent machine.

    Great quality and beautiful design. You can customize your espresso drinks to your taste. It is a great machine for those like me who wants to learn how to make different coffee drinks. It requires some education to use and maintain properly, but there are a lot of documentation and videos online from the manufacturer and from customers.

    This is an excellent machine and i have had several. Tip: instead of waiting 20 minutes like some recommend just run 1 single shot without coffee first then proceed. Makes all the difference

    I bought this when it went on sale. I’ve saved a lot of money by not buying Starbucks each morning and instead making our own Espressos. It’s paid for itself. I should gotten it sooner, even if I had to pay full price.

    This is my second one of these and that's because they are fantastic! My first one lasted about 6 years, with daily abuse of about 5-6 espresso per day before it had power issues. I love the manual control and the steam/pressure is great too. My only complaint is (same for both units) that I sometimes find water on the counter behind the unit and I am unable to determine specifically why this happens (like am I allowing the tray to overfill or perhaps its not seated correctly), however find no common cause which I could correct. I would recommend this specific model to anyone who wants to make fresh ground espresso or americanos at home! Since original purchase, I find I am a "home" coffee snob now, used to visit the big "S" multi times daily, now I dread when I am away from home and have to order out.
