Great machine! I have this and a Rocket R58. This is more simple and expedient, but not as great with frothing milk. Love the self cleaning. All in all, happy with it
I purchased this machine about a month ago, and very happy so far. It took some learning of how the espresso process works, but once I found my perfect settings, I would never go to a coffee shop unless traveling. The touch screen makes everything simpler. The hardest part is to figure the grind size for every type of coffee beans and your taste.
The machine works straight out of the box and delivers cafe quality espresso and lattes one right after the other. Even though the machine is entirely customizable I've had no need as the default settings are performing superbly. Bravo!
This machine exceeds my expectations in every way. The initial set up and subsequent operation was very straightforward even for someone with no experience. I’m thoroughly enjoying my afternoon espresso these days.
