[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Omg!!! Just absolutely perfect. I couldn't help my excitement i opened it as soon as I saw it on the porch and tried it! It runs smoothly. The coffee tastes amazing! I've had about 2 espresso and a cappuccino and Im very impressed with how easy it is to clean. Very easy to switch between settings for what you want. Literally has everything you need all in one! You just need the coffee!

Coffee Shop Quality Expresso Maker Right at Home
on August 6, 2025
Posted by: jillb178_8139
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Kitchen Aid semi automatic expresso machine is quality right in the comfort of your kitchen. This machine was easy to setup for a first timer, following the easy setup guide that comes with the machine. It’s a stainless steel restaurant quality machine with lots of options and espresso baskets to brew your favorite expresso just like you like. The grinder is super quite compared to so many products on the market and you can control how much grinds each make. The stamper is heavy duty quality and easy to use. This machine does take more labor for the coffee maker but the end result is worth it. Moving the grinds over to the brew area is easy to insert. With the click of a button my expresso was brewing and ready in just a few minutes. I love that there are several basket filters included with the machine to all you to control the strength of your expresso. The milk frother included with the stainless steel frothing cup that is included is awesome and allows you to control your froth and temp. Overall great machine and can’t wait to continue to use it!

Game changer for coffee lovers
on August 6, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the KitchenAid Semi Automatic Espresso Machine with Burr Grinder, and it’s been a game changer for my coffee routine. It looks super sleek on the counter and makes rich, smooth espresso every time. The built in burr grinder is a big plus freshly ground beans make all the difference. The steam wand works great for lattes too. It takes a little practice, but it’s easy to use once you get the hang of it. Definitely a bit of a splurge, but if you love good coffee, it’s worth it!

A quiet, easy-to-use semi-automatic espresso machi
on August 6, 2025
Posted by: meriema9_3844
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was too excited to receive this. I’ve been looking to update my coffee machine. This semi-automatic espresso machine with a burr grinder is perfect. I would say it’s on the quiet side. It's very easy to set up and straightforward to use. The grinder grinds the beans very even, and I love the different options for temperature, grind size, and coffee amount. I also love the storage under the tray for the baskets and the different basket options.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this machine as part of a promotion. Beautiful product that matches with my other KitchenAid appliance. I love coffee so it’s a perfect addition. There are so many brewing options and cleaning is pretty quick. Still working on figuring out the temperature control and grinding, but definitely enjoying this

Enjoy Barista-Coffee, at home!
on August 7, 2025
Posted by: vandanas5_3823
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Stepping into the world of home espresso making felt intimidating, but the KitchenAid Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine made the journey surprisingly smooth. The intuitive controls and clear, step-by-step instructions in the user manual and quick start guide made the process feel foolproof for a first-time user like me.
The machine's hefty weight was an initial surprise during unboxing, but I soon realized its purpose. This solid build allows for a sturdy, one-handed operation for most tasks. The only exception was when locking the Portafilter into the Group Head, where I found myself using my other hand to prevent the machine from shifting. Some sort of suction base could be a valuable addition here.
Grinding and brewing were not exceptionally noisy, a pleasant surprise that justifies the Quiet Mark label. The resulting espresso had a thick crema, a nutty aroma, and a very smooth taste. This machine hasn't just made it easy to make great coffee at home; it's inspired me to explore the art of cappuccino and latte-making. It's truly a gateway to a world of coffee possibilities.
