Does nice espresso

After 40 days steam wand stopped working

I've bought two of these. One for my mother, one for my brother. Personally I use a Sylvia (Rancilio) but I wanted something cheaper. This machine works very well. It is temperamental. You must grind the coffee fine, and pack it in the coffee basket or...

None worth mentioning. I've used many machines in the past, this is one of the best one's....just be patient with it and you will be rewarded with a very good espresso

Water heats up fast ; Easy to use if you READ THE INSTRUCTIONS ; Very large water reservoir ; Plenty of crema (Much more than my old Delonghi) ; Stainless steel construction throughout

Stock panarello could use an upgrade ; Steam has a little water on initial use, easily shot out into water tray ; Replaced their old style buttons with cheap ones ; Needs a highly visible power light, roommate keeps forgetting to turn it off

We've had this espresso machine for almost a month now. It makes very nice espresso with lots of crema on top.. it heats up fast, the foamer works great and fast too... speedy machine, quality drinks

nothing I'm aware of as of yet

Good build quality, attractive, extremely reliable

Steam wand is too long which can make frothing difficult. The stock portafilter is garbage and needs to be replaced with a non-pressurized one if you want to really take advantage of this machine
