Customer Ratings & Reviews

We LOVE this espresso machine! We’ve had a few and this is the best and easiest to use for sure. It’s fast easy and intuitive to use. We also love the wireless integration! This is a great machine!

In short - Wow!! This is a beautiful machine. Small and compact. I believe this is a GE/Haier machine. I’ve been making my own espresso & cappuccino for years non-automatic. Some may call this a basic automatic espresso machine, but it delivers!! At first, the app (Haier SmartHQ) installed easily but did not work to change any settings. After a week, a newer firmware (v 1.0.21.77) allowed me to customize the MyCup and other feature/settings. I use it for Doppio (double). You can even change grind times, water temperature settings for each brew. A lot easily to clean than my non-automatic Delonghi. If I want to nitpick, the water nozzle didn’t spray straight into thr hole but I rather use the measuring frother cup to collect the rinse water anyway. Taste - this is subjective and depends on the beans you use. Good for me. Great machine - buy one if you want a reasonably priced automatic espresso machine.

This machine is like having your own personal barista at home. It grinds the beans, brews your espresso, and even cleans up after itself (well, mostly). Plus, it looks super sleek on your countertop. Here's why you'll love it: * Small but mighty: Fits on even the most cramped countertops. * Fresh beans, amazing taste: Built-in grinder ensures fresh grounds for every cup. * One-touch magic: Fancy coffee drinks at the press of a button. * Easy to use, easy to clean: No need to be a coffee pro to enjoy barista-quality espresso. Things to keep in mind: * Not your average joe: Offers less customization than some high-end machines. * No hot water spout: Not the best choice for tea lovers or americano purists. Overall, the Café Affetto is a great choice for anyone who wants delicious espresso without the hassle. It's user-friendly, stylish, and makes mornings a whole lot better.

This automatic espresso machine from Café makes it really good shot of espresso. Couple that with the convenience of an Americano, setting and ease of maintenance makes this product an exceptional buy. The tech/smart features are added bonuses. The only issue i’ve had so far (and i’ve had this product nearly a year now) is that the descale process seems to glitch.

We replaced a non-automatic espresso machine that we’ve had for 25 years that only my husband could manage. Now we both can make great cappuccinos. And we’re making them more frequently since it’s so easy. They taste a lot like the ones we drank in Europe. With the burr grinder and tray to capture the grounds all in a very compact package that doesn’t take up hardly any room in our small kitchen, you can’t go wrong with this amazing machine.

I’ve been using the Café Affetto Automatic Espresso Machine + Frother for a 2 years now, and I’m absolutely blown away! This machine has completely transformed my morning routine. The built-in grinder ensures fresh beans for every cup, and the automatic brewing process is incredibly easy to use. The espresso is rich, flavorful, and consistently perfect. The frother is a fantastic addition, allowing me to create café-quality lattes and cappuccinos right in my own kitchen. Cleaning is a breeze, thanks to the self-cleaning cycle. The sleek design complements any kitchen aesthetic. If you’re a coffee lover looking to elevate your home brewing experience, I highly recommend the Café Affetto. My family loved it soooo much they bought one!!!

We purchased a matte black (looks more like dark grey) Cafe - Affetto Automatic Espresso Machine (the one with the milk frother/steam wand) at the store, so can't comment on shipping but it's packaged really well, so would have to assume it would be pretty hard to damage it during shipping. It functions really well, it makes great tasting coffee and espresso drinks and it's also very easy to use in fact I haven't even read the instructions yet, but I also haven't used any of the Wi-Fi features yet either so unfortunately I can't comment on any of those. My husband who only likes coffee not espresso drinks even likes it, he thinks it makes really good tasting coffee.

This is not the first automatic espresso machine I’ve bought and for the money - Black Friday deal $500 is the best product by far. Easy to operate, easy to clean and the fact that it connects to the app via Wi-Fi and sends notifications - is a plus. Grinder quality is great, coffee tastes great, very quiet and it doesn’t take much space on the kitchen counter. Design is nice too.

I love this machine. Had it for almost 2 months. Consistently delish espresso. Easy to use. Wish steamer worked harder and faster. Recommend.

Got this for my mom as she's not very tech savvy, but loves coffee. Very straight forward instructions on usage - the only con is because there are so many compartments, ensure you clean each regularly to avoid molding. We got this product on sale a while back and are still using it a year in!

I was a bit hesitant to purchase since this is a new product from a company I'm not too familiar with (Cafe but is owned by GE). I'm glad to say so far I've been very happy with the machine and the coffee it makes. It's basically as easy as a Nespresso but makes way better coffee (and about 1/10th the cost per cup!). Eventually the cost of the machine will pay for itself over the Nespresso. I actually enjoy it more than our full fledged espresso machine due to the ease of use and cleanup (basically nothing to clean after making a coffee). Having kids around basically makes those full fledged espresso machine a non starter for us right now due to the time and clean up required for each cup (though you arguably can make better coffee). For us the temperature of the coffee is perfect but we aren't those who drink extremely hot coffee either. For our circumstances this machine really is great. Only concern is longevity. I'll definitely update the review over time if the we start to have issues.

Wonderful coffee maker for the money. You can make an expresso or an Americano. You can program it by bluetooth to make a lungo of your specification. This is by far my favorite of all 4 coffee makers I own

We previously had a Nespresso coffee machine and just made the switch to the Cafe. This machine is easy to use, makes a great latte and eliminates the pods. The app is a little limited but once you determine your ideal settings you don't really need to mess with it any longer.

I bought this machine to replace Nesspreso machine. This machine is super easy to use, very good quality. Look amazing also. Super product.

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.

This coffee machine is very beautiful and functional. But don't expect it to make the best espresso. The quality of espresso is ok, slightly watery and not enough crema as you would get from a nespresso machine. But the cofffee is good for a quality morning or afternoon pick me up! I wish there is a feature you can adjust strength of the coffee!

Good so far. Makes a good Expresso with a push of a button. No mess.

I have been so impressed by this machine. What surprised me is how quite it is compared to other auto espresso machines I have had. I have so far just used the default espresso which has provided wonderful flavor. Granted, it is only my wife and I, so we like the smaller size. Quite a difference from the Saeco I had before. Great crema on top and provides several different options. I primarily drink Americanos, and have gotten hooked on just the espresso!

Easy to set up and easy to learn how to use. So far, works great with a great cup of coffee.

Great all around. Easy to use, love the Wi-Fi and alerts. Great quality, Looks fabulous :)
