[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the second KitchenAid Espresso maker I have owned. After 2+ years of roughly 2 cups per day the first one developed an electrical issue and started to trip circuit breakers. A call to KitchenAid with the serial number resulted in a new expresso maker being shipped. The new one arrived approximately one week later and I shipped the old one back in the same box.
Even if the warranty experience wasn't so easy, I love the espresso maker. With the dual boilers I can make a latte very quickly and even make 3-4 in a reasonable time. The espresso shots are always smooth and the milk steams very quickly. I think the quality of the drink is equal to most coffee shops.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first Espresso/Cappuccino machine and it works great. The only complaint I have is the boiler for the Espresso doesn’t stay at the ready to brew range for very long...it loses temperature quickly.
I have had my machine for over a year and have used it nearly daily since the day it arrived. Having worked as a barista this machine is all I wanted/needed to avoid the daily trip and expense of the coffee shop. However, I came looking for a potential fix to my "Hot Water Button" as it started sticking. I was shocked by some of these reviews and hope this isn't a sign if more problems to come. Any advice on the button issue?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've tried several expresso makers in the past and never been satisfied. I found it hard to coordinate making the espresso and foaming the milk adequately. I thought a machine with two boilers would solve the problem and it does. Very happy with this machine. Foaming the mild does take some practice but once you've got it figured out it is great.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are really happy with our expresso maker. Expresso is great (we live in Colombia so we only use Colombian coffee). We continue to learn how to make the “right milk”, it has been difficult for us so our cappuccino isn’t the best
Purchased my espresso machine 10 years ago and i love it. It's makes great coffee and is a stunning piece of equipment in my kitchen. No issues with it but important to descale regularly.
