||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the better espresso machines out there for a great price. The steam wand could have been stronger but I don’t know if any other machines in similar price range come close to the quality of this machine

Trouble with the grinder
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although i do like the looks of this machine itself, I have only had it 2 full days. On this second day it has already told me to 'ADD/STIR COFFEE BEANS". I did, thinking no big deal BUT it would never clear that message. I made sure I was using the correct bean (a medium roast) and had a enough beans in the hopper. I used the trouble shoot guide and STILL have the error message. What good is this if you cant clear the message to brew the drink??? Very frustrating. Most likely going to return this and go back to my other De' Longhi brewer which seems to be at this point, the better brewer.

Posted .Hi there, and thanks for letting us know about your experience. While we’re glad you like the look of our espresso machine, we hate to hear you’re having with an issue with an error message and aren’t able to clear it. That isn’t the performance we would expect, and we regret any inconvenience caused. The Add/Stir Coffee Beans message is meant to clear after the beans are refilled and you restart a new brew. More information about this message is available on page 11 of the manual. If you haven't yet used the troubleshooting in the manual specifically, that section does also discuss what to try for this message on page 19 – one of the provided tips is that cleaning the coffee grinder shoot may help. Resetting the unit by disconnecting it from power for a couple minutes before reconnecting may also help. If you need to view the manual online, you can do so on our Café Appliances website when you look up the model number and go to the product page. The manual does have information on the limited warranty on page 22 as well, if you aren’t able to resolve this and need to take advantage of that warranty. We hope this helps, and we’re always glad to assist if you have any other concerns or questions. All the best. -Sarah@Café

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the machine. I would give it 5 stars but it has 2 issues: 1 - coffee temperature is too low 2 - top buttons are too sen3
I would recommend this to a friendClassy setup
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product for the coffee (Americano) or espresso drinker. Works great and last a couple days worth of beans and water so you don't have to refill everyday. It would be nice if you could leave a cup in there while it rinses into another spot

Pricey
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think it's okay, but the coffee isn't as strong - you should only use medium roast, no dark roast beans in the machine. Overall, I didn't think it was worth the price.

Small Shots
|Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s not bad. But it eats through so many beans for barely half an oz of espresso. Even after I used the app to boost it to a 1.5Oz. Still barely comes out with .75 oz Even after trying different water types and temps. Coming from a Nespresso machine I was thinking it would be an upgrade but it’s more of a side step backwards. Think I’ll be getting a more professional one instead.
