Would repurchase over and over.

This espresso machine works so well and the price is ridiculous! Mine died after 7 years and I actually blame the fact I moved as to why it died... I think someone might have dropped it because it started making very watery coffee a few days after moving and it completely died within 2 weeks. It was a no brainer to repurchase the exact same one! I removed a star because I wish it was smaller, and I find it a bit loud compared to my boyfriend's Breville Bambino, but funnily enough my boyfriend prefers my Breville Café Roma, stating the crema is better (it is!). I absolutely recommend this espresso machine!
I would recommend this to a friend!

The best

I love this espresso machine. it makes great espresso, is easy to use, and is a quality piece of equipment that will last a long time. i already have one of these, which i bought 13 years ago - and it works perfectly (even though i've only descaled it once). i bought this 2nd machine just to be sure i had one that was working in case we go into a 2nd lockdown and manufacturing stops - because i can't live without my espresso. and this machine is the best. Read the reviews by experts - they all rave about this machine and can't believe the low price point for it. i couldn't agree more!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good machine

It’s working fine so far, I’ve had it for a couple weeks and we are enjoying it.
It’s a good machine to start, basic, it has just the necessary for espresso in the morning or capuchinos to share with friends. :-)

Makes Great Espresso
on July 6, 2020

This is a compact machine that makes great espresso. We've had ours for 5+ years and have made thousands of coffees with it. It just stopped working and I'm buying a new one because I like it so much (if I can fix the current one I'll put it in my travel trailer). I gave it 4 stars because 5 stars would be perfection but there are a few minor things I've noticed (listed below). We primarily drink espresso and Americanos and this machine is perfect for us. The steam wand is a bit weak; it takes a long time to get the milk to temperature and introduces quit a bit of water. We have a separate milk steamer for when we want coffee with milk/foam. Overall it's a great little machine that takes minimal counter space, looks good and makes excellent espresso.
Pros:
- makes excellent espresso: perfect temperature, great crema.
- compact, takes up very little counter space
- nice appearance
- heats up quickly
- great value
- very easy to clean

Cons:
- colour of the tank and viewing window makes it difficult to see the water level in the tank
- water tank lid rattles at times
- cup "walks" across the grate when unattended; need to hold the cup or put paper towel under it.
- steam wand is weak and takes a while to steam/froth milk

Great machine!

Easy to set up and use, makes great espresso! The milk frother isn't the best (hence only 4 stars) but overall it gets the job done. Really nice looking machine too.
I would recommend this to a friend!

good for its price

I have used this product for 5 years and I just gifted one to my boyfriend and he likes it too. Price is very good and I like how the espresso tastes. Sometimes it is hard to get the foam when using the steamer, but maybe it is because i do not use it much and lack of skills. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product. Outstanding performance compared to its price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This espresso is not worth it

I bought the first one, it hardly lasted one year. We bought another one thinking probably it was our fault but on the third month it is not working anymore.
