As advertised. Really good execution on the prosumer machine.

It’s the real deal. Even when you are tinkering with the really deep shot settings it makes it all easy and repeatable. Produces a great cup. Gives good grind advice. You sometimes have to dig a bit deep on the knob menus but all the settings are where you’d expect them to be, generally. Looks nice too.
I had high expectations for this espresso machine — and somehow it still exceeded them.
From the very first use, I could tell this was something special. The build quality and design are impressive, but what really surprised me was how fun and intuitive it was to learn. The learning curve was quick, and dialing in shots felt more exciting than intimidating. Within a short time, I was pulling espresso that tasted like it came straight from my favorite café.
The final product is exceptional — rich crema, balanced flavor, and consistently great results. It genuinely elevated my daily coffee routine.
I also watched the Fellows instructional videos, and they were incredibly helpful. Clear, well-produced, and easy to follow — they made the entire setup and learning process smooth and stress-free.
If you’re considering this machine and expecting it to be good, be prepared — it’s even better than that.
I've only had this machine for a few days and I am already in love! The set-up was super easy, the menu is intuitive, and it works like a dream. I can't wait to learn how to make all the different beverages available.
Only had it a few days and it's wonderful! Super easy to make delicious drinks. My favorite things are the shot presets and steam wand with the thermometer built in, makes it feel so effortless.
