[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It looks very beautiful in my kitchen, apart from the esthetic the performance overall is very good, we have to do some adjustments and testings but the final results are very good, the milk frother is amazing and the water tank is super big so that you dont have to refill it every time

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a coffee lover and this coffee grinder has been the best thing I have ever bought, a fairly ground coffee without lumps, the assembly process of the entire machine is really easy and fast, the smell of freshly brewed coffee is special, and In relation to its price it is really worth what it costs. The cleaning process is easy and fast. It is a luxury machine!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is well made . Expresso machine makes great expresso fast. The coffee is perfect every time, and the smell of just grounded beans in the morning is what your days need to go from 'meh' to 'life has a purpose and it is fully fulled by this machine'.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this espresso maker! I had a Nespresso prior to this machine and it’s definitely a step up! It is easy to use and I definitely have more options when it comes to what kind of coffee I want to make! Also not having to buy Nespresso pods is great! I originally thought that the coffee grinder feature would be loud and it is not loud at all! Would 100% recommend this machine!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a premium espresso machine and upgraded my kitchen. I love it has grinder included, so I don’t need an extra grinder. It is my first time owning an espresso machine like this, so take me a bit time to learn how to use it. But overall is pretty easy to brew. Cleaning is easy and I really love how it looks too.

Elegant look, elegant taste!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this espresso maker in exchange for my honest review of the product. The KitchenAid semi-automatic espresso machine makes a great shot of espresso and looks great doing it.
The machine comes with single and double wall baskets in single and double shot sizes so that you can use either pre or freshly ground coffee with it.
Should you choose freshly ground the attached burr grinder allows you to adjust the grind level and the amount dispensed for one or two shots.
Once your grinds are dispensed into the portafilter (done automatically by the attached grinder) the included commercial grade tamper makes it easy to compress them for the perfect shot.
When you're ready to pull your shot just select from three temperature settings and set the number of shots and it'll do the rest.
The pressure gauge shows the level of extraction with a helpful "espresso" range to help you determine if your shot might of been over or under extracted.
If you need more help with that the quick start guide the machine comes with includes details on what to look for and what to adjust in each case.
Once you've mastered making your favorite espresso a set of recipes to try out are also included with the machine.
Overall I found this easy to use due to the clear directions included and am impressed by the different options for customizability. Even the slightly under extracted shots I produced had a strong flavor.
