So pleased with this purchase. Quick to heat, easy to use, easy to clean, and makes a great espresso. Have used the machine daily and have had no issues. Purchase included a promotion code for two free bags of coffee from Beanz.com plus cashback on a subscription.

This machine is great! You have to get it tuned to get a precise shot pull but once you do it is amazing. I would recommend any coffee drinker get one of these instead of wasting money at shops.

Love this machine. Replaces my french press and i have not missed it. The shots of espresso are delicious, and the option to make cappuccino or a latte is phenomenal.

My wife and I are not fluent in the art of Espresso making, but we do like to sip it. So stepping up to a machine as highly rated as the Breville Barista Express Impress was a pretty big step. Sadly, it has not been all good.
Our first machine would not automatically dose the coffee. Breville Customer Service worked with us on a video call and after going through a long process trying to get the dosing working correctly, finally decided we had a defective device. They arranged a replacement to be sent and we packed-up the old one to send back. Prepaid shipping to Breville, so that was nice.
The replacement unit has exactly the same issue... So we went back through the troubleshooting without help from Breville, with the same result. Nothing we tried fixed the problem. But I can't really get myself to return a SECOND time, so we are just going to use the machine and dose the coffee ourselves, it's a 15-20 second process, so not a deal breaker. But it's sad that two machines with exactly the same issue arrived. If you check online, you will find that this issue is quite common... I noticed that when we were shopping for this machine, but decided that only bad news gets reported, not the good news, and the balance of the reviews were very positive. So we bought one.
In the meantime, the Espresso we make for ourselves is REALLY good! So it's not too bad to have this minor inconvenience.
We're sorry to hear of your experience. Thank you for your review and your feedback. We do value customers' input. We'll definitely pass along your feedback to the appropriate people, as we are continuously trying to improve our customer's experience.

This is an amazing machine, i have a regular coffee maker and another one with pods and those ones are great for making very quick drinks, less than a minute with the cups and around 3 min for the big pod for 4-5 pods, the expresso will take around 2.minutes for each mug. But the smell and taste is greater by far. If you have the money and you are a coffee drinker please give an opportunity to this gorgeous machine.

I have been very pleased with the Impress Espresso Machine. I did not know exactly what to expect, but the Latte's I have made for my guests have really enjoyed them. I believe it makes very good quality drinks. I would buy it again.

Easiest espresso machine. Just used distilled water with the mineral packs they sell in Amazon. I love this machine.

Easy to use out of the box. It does use a lot of water and the tray seems to fill up quite rapidly with dailyuse. Id say the only down side is having to kick on the steamer to let it warm up before you steam your milk. The grinder is a bit inconsistent but thats an easy fix.

I had tried many different coffee makers and spent a fortune on them, and never found what I really was looking for. A great cup of coffee. But then we went to a friends house for Christmas and this is the one they had and it made a perfect cup of coffee. They bought it at a different store but I was very happy with Best Buy so I purchased it there. Every day I enjoy a perfect cup of coffee!
