Perfect if?

I'm a coffee lover, just bought the machine on Black Friday offers . I like the machine simplicity, hope Philips will add just 2 upgrades - Double shot Espresso - App functionality ( can you app to automade my coffee remotely ) - optional ( new machine colors , like : Red , Pink , Green , Blue )
Easy to set up and even easier to use. Better yet, it is fairly quiet compared to other models.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Waste of money

I am so frustrated with this machine. While the power still turns on fine, the actual performance has completely failed after only 4 months. It has become a total mess to use. The grinder barely puts out enough coffee for a shot, and when I try to brew, it leaks all through the portafilter. The worst part is the 'soupy' mess it leaves behind; there is more water left sitting in the portafilter than there is espresso in my cup.

Fast, good espresso, great for parties

I purchased before the holidays and was impressed how well the Baristina made espresso in a short time. Much easier than a high end espresso machine, especially during parties when multiple espressos are needed. The ability to adjust volume and to add a separate grind without removing the beans is great. The instruction videos on YouTube were very helpful. I purchased five unit for myself and family.
