Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wonderful little espresso machine. My gf and I use this thing 4+ times per day and it’s been flawless. I do wish the water tank was larger, but that’s my only little gripe.

Most Frustrating Machine Ever
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Espresso is good. Most frustrating machine ever. Beans don't go in the shoot without encouragement. It rinses every time so it is constantly out of water and you have to be conscious of which spicket it is coming out of. Now it is stuck on "descale" and it won't work at all

Posted .Hi there - thanks for reaching out about your stunning Café Espresso Machine. It’s great to learn that you’re enjoying the great espresso this machine makes, but our apologies to hear that you’re experiencing issues with the beans going into the shoot and the “descale” alert. We can certainly understand why you’d like some clarification on that, and we’d like to share some tips that will help! -- There are 2 main reasons why the beans may not be going down the shoot. First, if the beans are too oily, they will not slide freely into the grinder - make sure to avoid using oily beans if possible. Also, its possible that the internal coffee outlet could be blocked. In that case, be sure to clean the coffee grinder shoot. Instructions can be found on page 14 of your manual: https://files.bbystatic.com/IWW5IBxRg6UZIvbkYwfWkw%3D%3D/Owners%2BManual -- The manual also contains instructions on the simple Descaling Process on page 15. It is recommended to descale once a month or more depending on your water hardness. -- We hope this is informative and if you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out anytime. Happy brewing! Lauren@Café

Amazing coffee machine
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this machine to replace Nesspreso machine. This machine is super easy to use, very good quality. Look amazing also. Super product.
I would recommend this to a friend I'm making AAAALLLLL THE LATTES!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is so easy to setup and use it's ridiculous! I love that I don't have to pound the espresso grounds out of the little cup or go through all the manual steps of getting that espresso shot. I just hit "mycup" and I get 2 espresso shots I can throw some milk in or froth some milk. Also, my kids are now spoiled because I make them frothy milk.

Flimsy steam wand
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The machine makes your life easier and makes consistent espresso. However, the steam wand is not good. Its flimsy, plus mine started spouting more water than needed during steaming and the problem never fixed even after descaling. I just returned the machine and got a breville impress.

Great coffee maker
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks great especially the white. Super easy to use. Grinder is really strong. It makes good americano, very flavorful. Expected more from expresso, it’s very basic so don’t expect much. The steam and froth option is a big plus. The wifi and app is a good add-on but it’s limited options and it’s not IoT so don’t expect a smart coffee maker.

Nice but too expensive.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a nice coffe and expresó maker but not great on the taste. Very easy to use but also bought the semi automatic version and that one had a better brew system. If you are looking for an easy to use expression machine this is it.

I would recommend this to a friend Sad!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a bit on the disappointed side after purchasing this machine. I went ahead and got this machine due to the great reviews, and to slow down on the hefty starbucks tab I was paying every month. 1. The appearance is phenomenal. 2. I am sad to discover no matter how I adjust the grind time/grind size I am getting watery like espresso, by the time I make my latte all I can taste is milk. 3. I buy starbucks espresso beans (youd think it would taste similar to starbucks) 4. The return of this machine is a HASSEL! I reached out to GE to discuss return/refund and it has to be brought back to bestbuy, which ive already threw the box away, so bestbuy said it couldnt be returned. WHAT THE HECK! For a $550 purchase im super sad! - Wish I would of gone with the philips machine
