    It’s such a great investment! I used to dislike coffee. Now I absolutely love it. I have around 2-4 shots a day. If you a frequent Starbucks customer, thus investment will break even within a couple of months! So if you like your coffee concentrated (not watery), this is perfect.

    Wish I had bought a different brand. We like really hot coffee & I’ve tried everything & still have to reheat my Latte in the microwave to get it hot enough to drink.

    It looks stunning in the kitchen. And it is fun to learn how to get the right grind size and pressure to make the coffee you like, and far better than those sweet ones from StarBucks.

    I finally took the plunge and bought an Espresso machine and I couldn’t be happier. Making your own tastes so much better than the stuff you buy from Starbucks.

    Great machine, does delicious coffee. However o-ring broke down after a year of use, fixed it then the grouphead screws came loose after another year and had to fix that again myself because out of warranty and if you send it to be fixed, costs way too much.

    A great all-in-one at-home espresso machine

    I'd like to preface this by stating that prior to this purchase I spent countless days researching and watching reviews for the most optimal Espresso Machine before stumbling onto this item. This espresso machine works really well! There are a lot more pros than there are cons and I will do my best to list them. PROS: - There are a ton of controls but is extremely easy to use. - You can control the level of granularity w/ your coffee beans. - You can control the temperature of your water to a certain extent. - You can configure presets for the amount of espresso you would like brew. - You can preset the perfect amount of beans to grind. - It is intelligent enough to tell you when to clean and drain. - The frothing wand is fun and easy to use. - Super easy clean up. - Super straight forward and easy deep cleaning. CONS: - Sometimes the coffee beans don't sift down to the grinder and throws off your preset amount of beans to grind. - The "Perfect" grind for me ends up spilling some of the ground off the Portafilter and makes a little mess. - The water catcher fills up pretty fast. Overall I really enjoy this product. I don't see myself going back to regularly brewed coffees, and I'm pretty sure people only come over for my espresso now.

    Don’t waste your money on cheap pod machines. Do yourself a favor and spend extra and get this guy. Goes on sale for $540 (marked down from $700) often so keep an eye out. Buy fresh roasted beans (shop local!) and you’ll be all set!

    Absolutely love it. Took watching a couple YouTube videos to get an understanding of hos to calibrate for the right brew. I now enjoy a daily Americano. For special treats I make macchiatos
