Coffee obsessed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Learning curve but not too difficult! The unit is gorgeoussss and definitely an update from my past espresso machine. Appreciate the self cleaning feature and the grinder attachment. Took a first few pulls to get the perfect espresso. Definitely worth the price for any intermediate coffee maker!

Durable, convenient, modern, easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This espresso machine is my favorite appliance that I currently own. To start, the water tank is large and also comes with a water filter to insert into a water filter holder. The tank has a nice handle so you can easily remove it to refill and replace it. The grinder is amazing and adjustable so you can get an extremely fine grind using it. It’s very easy to use and it’s very fast at grinding. The machine is smart as it produces the correct amount of ground coffee needed for either a single or double shot. The coffee grinds go right into the portafilter. The machine comes with 4 different cup filters to use for either a single or double shot and there’s a single and double wall filter of each. The tamp is also included and it is a heavy high quality tamp. Brewing time is fast and heats quickly, there are 3 levels of temperature you can choose for your brew. Steam wand is convenient and gets the job done for a frothy milk. Stainless steel 12 oz milk pitcher was also included! The machine is able to run a cleaning cycle with a click of a button and it will also notify you when it needs a clean. Overall, the espresso machine feels very durable, high quality, modern and is easy, convenient, fast.

Instructions confusing but overall easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve never made espresso on my own before so there was a learning curve. The initial instructions were a bit confusing but once I made the first one and figured it out it was super easy and quick. I like that you can customize the espresso in so many ways too!

Kitchen staple!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Using this has been a learning experience! I would say using an expression maker while just normally using a coffee maker is definitely for more experienced coffee makers! Once I learned how to use it, it was really easy to use. I am still learning all the tips and tricks of how to make the best expression and it also has a grinder that is attached.I love the stainless steel it matches everything in my kitchen. If you rather save your money than going to Starbucks I would say get one of these, it’s definitely a nice little addition to your kitchen.

Best Espresso ever!
on March 12, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is the bees knees of coffee machines. From grinding your own beans to pouring the cup, this machine makes you feel like you’ve just ordered coffee from the fanciest coffee shop in town. Price is decent for the product, but the finished product makes it worth every dime. Simple to use and easy to learn. You won’t regret adding this to your kitchen attire!
Grab yours today and start enjoying espressos the way they were meant to be enjoyed!

This is definitely worth it !

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in love with my new Kitchen Aid Semi Automatic Espresso Machine with Burr Grinder. Aside from the quality of the machine, the way it grinds the coffee and makes the espresso is impressing. The espresso comes out tasting great and strong with the frother as a plus. It is definitely worth its price and I would be gifting this to my espresso loving loved ones in the future. One small complaint that I do have although I won’t remove a star is that the instructions could be better explained and it was a bit frustrating to figure out how to use. I contacted Kitchen Aid twice and they were not any help. I had to search for a video on YouTube to learn how to use this machine, but aside from that, I highly recommend .

Must have for coffee drinkers

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am obsessed with this espresso machine! I have never owned a machine like this. I usually just drink regular coffee. Espresso has been a great pick me up in the middle of the day. Super easy to use. Now I need a cute little coffee station in my kitchen.
