    Bought this for my wife for Mother's Day and she's absolutely in love with it. Makes the perfect espresso shots and has so many different functions. This has completely replaced my wife's desire to drive to the coffee stand and is saving us lots of money in the process. It's completely worth the price!

    My day starts by hearing this machine every single day. I dont drink coffee at all. It is beautiful and fancy on my counter. It seems well constructed. THere are no issues we have had with it. All that matters is my wife wanted it, and I bought it for her. She seems to love it, and it seems to be easy to clean.

    This espresso machine is a powerful one for being entry level, i will say that you need to be patient with your self if your new to tamping and such. buy cheap fine grounds to learn how to tamp with to start and then buy your snarky special beans to fully get your moneys worth. no complaints. just be patient with learning to pull your shots.

    I am loving my daily morning latte after purchasing this machine. Easy to clean, easy to use (after reading instructions). I may be biased, but I feel as though I’m making the best latte in town right here in my kitchen.

    Lacks Consistency

    I replaced my Breville BES820XL of 10 years with the newer Barista Express Machine. I'm 6 weeks in and I'm not impressed. My issues are mainly around inconsistencies. For instance, the grind never gives me even close to a consistent amount of coffee. Also, I can never get a double shot from the machine. Sometimes I'll get 1/2 an ounce, other times 1 ounce, but never 2 ounces. I always have to press the double shot twice to get even close to 2 ounces. I've even reprogrammed the double shot to the maximum amount of time it will let me program it to. I've reached out to support, who are very slow to respond and there only comment to me was to check the power in my house. I never had an issue with my old Breville. I will say, I do love the built-in grinder, but I wish it was consistent.

    This has brought our morning coffees to a whole new level! After our 10 year old Mr.Coffee stopped working we started shopping for an espresso machine to help minimize the takeout coffee consumption. We couldn’t be more pleased with the ease of use and the ability to craft our own espresso beverages at home.

    I have limited experience on these machines, but lots of experience drinking coffee. That being said, this unit makes some of the best drinks I have ever had ..when I can get the shots right. I look forward to learning more while enjoying my morning coffees.
