I purchased this Espresso machine couple weeks ago because this machine is having almost exact features to an expensive brand which I wish to get. I always want one that has a built in grinder which no need to buy one separately. I had so many small coffee machines before but none of them has built in grinder. I must say this machine is out of my expectation for the price I paid. It is well made with lots of fine details.The machine can make single and double shot Espresso. The operation is real simple. Just add you own favorite coffee beans into the grinder. After grinding, pack your coffee with the tamper provided then transfer the Portafilter to the water tap; press the button to choose single or double shot. There is also a built in steam wand that can heat up and make instant cream from milk just like the other well-known models in the market.Now I really enjoy making my own home made Espresso every morning instead of going out to Starbuck. I also invited friends to come over and test out this machine, we made cappuccinos and lattes with it and they all amazed by the craftsmanship and the quality of the outcome.

Listen, I’m a coffee girly. I like it all. But that also means I was spending a lot of money at local coffee shops…. I probably kept them in business. One day my husband told me I had to choose him or coffee…. Not really but it felt like it. He bought this for me and I’ve never gone back. I like to think of myself as a barista making new drinks… it’s fun.
I won’t tell my husband this, but I’m glad we have it! We’ve saved a lot of money lol

What a fantastic espresso machine! The convenience of the 2.8L water tank means I can make several drinks without constant refills—ideal for busy mornings or entertaining guests. The quality of the espresso is outstanding, thanks to the precise pressure control and premium grinder. I've tried various coffee beans, and each time I get a consistently rich aroma and flavor in my coffee.

The 20‑bar pump delivers a bold shot and the silver finish looks sharp. The steam wand can be loud at full blast, but the foam quality makes it easy to live with.

We kept our old drip for guests, but this is my daily go‑to now. Strong, smooth espresso for morning macchiatos and iced lattes in the afternoon feels like a treat.

I switch between lighter and darker roasts and the 30 grind settings make it easy to adapt. Once I note the sweet spot, the machine repeats it day after day.

Between the grinder and large tank it does take up a fair chunk of the counter. That said, having café style drinks at home makes the footprint worth it.

The steam wand has enough power to texture milk for flat whites and cappuccinos. Clean‑up is quick with a wipe and purge, which keeps things realistic on workdays.

The controls are straightforward and the grinder settings are clearly marked. After a week of practicing, I’m getting consistent crema and smooth americanos every morning.

Overall build feels sturdy and the shots are café level once tuned in. Some of the exterior trim is lighter plastic, but functionally it’s been rock solid so far.
