Nice machine and works well but it would be nice if the wifi settings would give a little bit more range for settings for hotter water and less grind time. Other than that it works good and frother heats up fast.
Hi there, and thank you for letting us know about your experience – we’re very glad you like the espresso machine overall, it’s working well for you and the frother is heating quickly! We do regret that you aren’t happy with the available WiFi settings for hotter water/less grind time. Both your positive feedback and your concerns will be shared with our team for future review and development, as we always like to know what our consumers think of our products. If you have any other concerns or questions, we’re glad to offer assistance any time – best wishes! -Sarah@Café

Bought this as a present and my boyfriend loves it. Loves being able to grind the coffee with the same machine. clears up countertop space for sure. and the foamer/steamer is great.

Absolutely LOVE this machine!! It has weighted tamper and portafilter which helps get a good shot of espresso. The machine itself is well made which means it will last a long time. Best purchase this year.

I was so happy with this coffee machine but the Grinder stopped working only after two months. After few days from my return policy expired. The good thing i have the protection plan and i was able to replace it but i had to purchase a new protection plan (another $59 ) for the new one.

Overall this is just not a good espresso machine. We originally purchased in December 2021. Since then we’ve had to request repairs twice as it is faulty when it pressurized. The grinder us also so messy, literally spews grounds all over the place. The frothed isn’t the greatest either like other machines I’ve had. Lots of work needs to be done on this before it’s where it needs to be IMO. Looks beautiful just not up to par for the price.

It’s nice machine but not worth the current price.
Quality maybe $400 range. Happy so far but I would recommend warranty. For the price expected to feel little more durable although haven’t had any big issues.
