My new gadget!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this KitchenAid Espresso machine with semi-automatic Milk Frother. It’s easy to use once you figure out all the attachments. Comes with single wall 1-2 cup, double wall 1-2 cup, a scooper, a portafilter and the extra water/milk spout. Grab the size you want and pop the filter basket into the machine and the handle turns right to lock it in place. Choose desired shots by pressing the expresso button and hit the play button. Gets hot super fast and doesn’t take long to complete. The drip pan is super nice to have. If you desire froth fill milk dispenser and select steam button and the frothing begins until desired foam. The steam comes up pretty fast and milk comes out. If you wish to make more foam you just need to insert the wand further into the expresso cup while using the up/down motion for thicker foam. I’m still learning this machine and what works for me but I will be using it daily. I love how easy it is to clean and take apart. Super convenient. The instructions are clear and easy to read so make sure to use your manual it comes in handy. It’s the easiest Espresso machine in my option. If I can use it anyone can. I recommend this Kitchen Aid for anyone who loves a shot or two with some foam. Makes a great addition to my morning routine.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome Espresso at home!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this Semi Automatic Espresso Machine and Milk frother for a couple of weeks now and I can say I’m very satisfied with the quality of the espressos I’ve been able to make.
The Milk frother however I’m not really in love with. it’s really noisy and it doesn’t give enough foam.
Other than that I’m very pleased with this machine. It’s really easy to assemble and use. I also love that is compact and doesn’t take a lot of space.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coffee review
Kitchen aid coffee machine is compact and fit very well on our medium to small size kitchen counter. It was well packaged and came with two booklet, one with few basic instructions (which was very handy for first couple of brews) on how to brew expresso, use streamer and get hot water, other one is more detailed with in depth instructions. I am very peculiar about my coffee and would like to customize it as per my taste, beans, temperature and mood. The Kitchen aid coffee machine allow me to change my brewing method, change my beans and let me choose perfect temperature for my latte or cappuccino. If you like just any coffee with any pod then this machine might asks for more work but if you like me who wants the perfect coffee everyday then this is for you
It has one of the best first time user experience for any coffee lover. It came with two part - one is the main coffee machine with water container and other one with milk container which is optional. With its modern style and steel color it was great additional to our kitchen. To be honest I didn’t like the first coffee which we brew but gradually we found our way to our perfect coffee every morning. There is a learning curve and with few trials we got our combination of milk, coffee beans size and shot size. This is one of the best machine in mid size and this price range. The only cons of this machine i could find it that it make a little noise when the steamer is on but i guess this is what it would require to make the steam. Overall i love this machine and it is not going anywhere from my kitchen counter.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very compact daily use espresso machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Aesthetically, this coffee machine is beautiful looking and very compact in size. Detachable frother attachment is very handy and can be replaced by steam wand with milk frothing jug. Overall machine is compact & elegant looking.
Espresso have 2 option, single shot & double shot. Machine comes with espresso tamper. This coffee machine has flat style portafilter which comes with multiple filter basket for single shot or double shot coffee. Extraction is pretty good with this style portafilter. so you get pretty good flavor out of the coffee. As far as frother is concern, it works best with steam wand & milk frothing jug. I was not able to get the same frothing level from cannister. But overall pretty descent milk frother.
Overall, Very impressive espresso coffee machine with in-built milk frother.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Espresso Maker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nicely made, good looking, shaped to minimize kitchen surface consumption, easy to set up and makes great coffee consistently. The milk frother attachment is great if making a few lattes, but otherwise the steam wand works just fine.
