[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This espresso machine by KitchenAid is foolproof. We had a previous machine that made OK drinks but was really hard to use and clean. This one grinds beans fresh, steams milk easily and makes a very, very good latte. The only real downside is that the steamer is incredibly loud. Overall, this quickly became part of our daily routine and I prefer our lattes to many chain coffee shops.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] No need for multiple appliances to make a great espresso drink at home. Leave it to Kitchenaid to make an amazing semi-automatic espresso machine that also includes a burr grinder. The grinder is easy to use and grinds coffee beans quickly and efficiently. You can easily make 1-2 espresso shots with this machine, whichever your heart desires. The milk steamer perfectly steams your milk. The entire process takes just a few minutes and is a very simple cleanup. It also comes with a recipe book of different drinks you can make. Overall, it is well worth the cost. Kitchenaid has me making lattes so good in the comfort of my own home, there’s no need to waste money on overpriced coffee shops anymore!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this espresso machine. It gives you so many setting adjustments to make your perfect espresso. It grinds the beans for you and measures out exactly how much you want for one or two shots. It allows you to choose the coarseness of the grind and adjust the temperature of the espresso brew. It also has a milk steamer/frother attachment that is super easy to use and works very well. I also love how it has an option to just get hot water from the machine. It heats up very quickly and is also easy to clean. I really look forward to making myself a yummy espresso drink every day! It comes with everything you need, including an easy to follow instruction manual and a recipe book. I do feel this machine is worth the price tag and it will pay for itself if you regularly buy drinks from coffee shops. I’ve had a cheaper espresso machine in the past and it does not compare to this one. I received this product in exchange for an honest review.

[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.

[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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is perfect for anyone who loves to make handcrafted espresso drinks. It wasn’t the easiest to set up but once you get it going it makes the best espresso shots! The grinder was amazing! The foamer worked perfectly. Very sleek look with the stainless steel. High quality product. Very well made. The best home espresso machine!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My honest opinion about the Kitchen Aid semi automatic expresso machine with burr grinder. The machine work very well for my expresso. The quality of the machine is very good. The only problem is the fast instruction to set the expresso machine for the first time, do not follow the fast instructions. Read the manual instructions there details you need to do before use the expresso machine. But I recommend 100%

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this espresso machine because I was frustrated with Breville not being able to provide support problems with one of their machines. I have Kitchen Aid appliances and have felt they were reliable. So far, that is true. The espresso made is quite good. However, the portafilter does not clean easily. Grounds do not come out of the portafilter using my knock box. I have to scrape them out. The foam you can make is just okay. I've tried various ways to improve the foam. Maybe the pressure isn't strong enough.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Received the KitchenAid semi automatic espresso machine. It took about few try’s to really get the hang of it but now I am brewing exceptional espresso at home! Love the different grinding level options, options for a double shot is a must for me and this espresso machine has that too! Temperature level for the water is great!! It also has a milk steamer and a spout for hot water which is very handy for tea making! All in all I am pretty impressed with this machine!!
