Super user friendly and easy to assemble and make delicious espresso! My only wish was that I can stand my coffee tumbler upright for when I'm making espresso for lattes.
This espresso machine is compact with a small footprint that can stay out on the counter and not take up too much room. The espresso is delicious and consistent. Very happy with my purchase.
I've owned this for around three weeks now and I'm very happy with it. I just don't understand many of the negative reviews this product has from others.
Heating time is around 45 seconds or less most of the time. Brew times for both the single and double espresso size is quick, at around 12 to 25 seconds. I like being able to program both single and double espresso sizes along with the stand-by time. In spite of other reviews, I've had no problems with water accumulating in the pod disposal bin. Most ordinary coffee mugs and cups will easily fit under the dispenser since the cup/mug height is adjustable, and I've never had a problem with a cup vibrating off the cup holder. It's very quiet compared to other espresso makers. I would easily recommend this and I'd definitely purchase another without hesitation.
I love this little espresso maker! It is easy to set up, use, and clean - even my husband is using it. I am drinking an espresso con panna as I write this review. It takes up very little space on the counter and it makes a pretty nice coffee. We love it!
