I purchased this machine as a Christmas Gift and it gets use multiple times a day. While I do not have much experience with Espresso machines, I am very happy with the purchase. The manual does a fantastic job explaining the different settings as well as providing good baselines for dialing in the perfect shot. I got it on sale for $499 and am happy with it overall, but would probably look elsewhere a the $699 MSRP

This product is the genuine coffee lover. It lets you make small versions of excellent cups of coffee. It does take a light learning curve, but it is excellent. I use quality beans and I love it.

To the person who loves espresso drinks, but is intimidated at the thought of making them yourself: buy this machine. Seriously. The drinks it creates are delicious and SO much easier than I ever thought they’d be thanks to the helpful guide and simple design. My favorite feature is the auto-grinder and built in tamper. It’s also beautiful so it dresses up our kitchen counter and makes us look like the fancy people we want to look like, but not act like. We love this espresso machine and know that you will too.

I love my espresso machine. It is a part of daily life for me. The coffee you can get out of this guy is very good once you’re dialed in. The reality is that no machine in this price range comes with a good built in grinder. It’s nice to have in a pinch but you’re always going to want a better grinder. Always wait for sales on this. There are Better machines at its retail price but when it’s on sale it’s an incredible value.

I’ve had my fair share of coffee makers. This is by far the best one yet. Unfortunately, I had to return the first one I bought because of a button malfunction just after 3 weeks of having it. The new one I got works just fine and has NO problems. It has three mode for coffee lovers and tea lovers. Definitely worth your money! Not exactly like my favorite Italian coffee, but it’s extremely close!

Did the math and figured it would be worth trying since I've watched enough drinks be made. Absolutely amazing. This machine is not too loud in my opinion, grinding/steaming. Its simple to use, easy to navigate through refilling and making drinks. I personally love having to rinse / wash the equipment after a use, a psychological bonus.
