This has far exceeded expectations. My wife was skeptical and suggested it would become just one more kitchen gadget taking up counter space. Instead, it has earned a place of honor on the counter—front and center, occupying the primary electrical outlet. We use this little powerhouse to brew 2-6 espressos (lattes) a day. It’s probably paid for itself three times over in the few weeks we’ve had it.
Highly recommend, best semi automatic machine for this price point. I’m very impressed by its performance. The build quality is also great, I would say on par with breville, delonghi and nespresso. The unit itself is actually slim enough too doesn’t take up a lot of counter space. I always asked about it and get compliments on my coffees!
