I bought this for my husband for Christmas and it quickly became a boomerang gift. Something that was beneficial to both he and I :-) We love it. It took a minute to get used to how the espresso part / steamer worked but once we got that down we were good to go. Now we love having our afternoon cappuccinos and my friends love the espresso martinis!

Makes a great cup of hot coffee. Espresso machine leaks quite a bit of water into the drain tub, so be sure to empty it with each use. It has a little red indicator that floats up to warn you when it is time to empty. Easy to clean...handwash all the parts

Purchased this for my boyfriend for his birthday as his other one died on us. It fit perfectly where the other one was and had a little bit more room. He usually makes the drinks but this has brought back out that barista I once was. Would highly recommend this machine.

Good coffee and espresso maker with nice features like auto start timer, but lacking on the steam system to make cappuccino. The steam connection nozzle is too short for standard size milk containers and does not reach the milk level when following the instructions. You need to fill the milk container at least to the level where the steam connection submerges to make cappuccino and you end up with too much milk for one or two cups.

I previously had a Nespresso and bought this to replace. This provides versatility to the type and quality of coffee you want to make. As someone who throughly enjoys coffee, I can make drip for the work week and a nice craft latte or espresso drink on the weekends when I have more time. The instructions are easy to understand and use. It will take an attempt or two to figure out how to make/ use all the espresso functions but nothing hard. I have throughly enjoyed the machine and think it is worth the cost.

Bought this for the man of the house, as I do not like coffee. He really likes it. As I do as well because I used to start his coffee before work every morning but with the timer we can set it up the night before and it’ll be done when he’s ready. He hasn’t used the espresso side yet but I’m sure he’ll love it as much. I would recommend this for any coffee drinker.

The frothing mechanism doesn't work. I contacted them and they never returned my request

Easy to use. Set up is easy. Took away to find the water for the drip coffee side but made sense once I located. Pull out. Would recommend.

Good enough for beginners. It has basic functionalities for making cappuccino and coffee at a decent price. I will eventually upgrade to a dedicated cappuccino machine when I get more proficient.

So far, this machine has offered everything we have wanted. Easy to use and offers us the option of regular coffee in addition to our more barista-style bevies.
