Its not so easy to have cupnof coffe in a minute. But yes worth a time to have barista style coffee in house. On daily basis you learn and creat to make excellent coffee. Worth buying as beginner. The process take 5-7 min to make 2 cups of coffe. And yes cleaning also is not so easy.

The machine is super sleek, doesn’t take up a lot of space and makes the kitchen counter look and feel chic. I must also mention that it makes some good tasting espresso.

Using it for 2 months now. Excellent product with decent build quality. Sufficient pressure to create nice any creamy foam in just a few seconds. It took me a 7-10 practice sessions starting from zero to learn how to build perfect barista/CCD style foam in a minute. Other users complaining not able to generate foam or steam leakage means they’re not doing it right or maybe they received faulty machine. There are a lot of good youtube videos to teach steaming(lot of crap videos too).
I’ve made expresso, americano, cappuchino, latte, macchiato, filter coffee with it.
Only thing i do not like about this machine is that the filter basket not of standard size and is very large at 4 cups size and does not even come with a tamper. Its very hard to find a correct size tamper and is very costly. Since its a personal home maker its size should be for one or 2 cups max and should definitely come with a tamper even if it comes at additional cost or in place of un-necessary glass carafe and the rubber cover on the steam wand.
For the cost and its category i don’t think it has any negative points though.
Update after one year:-
I’d still say its very good good if you’re a beginner in coffee making. And if you know what you’re doing you can make a very good milk based coffee which is even better than what you can drink at CCD or costa and most other coffee joints as they are very careless about making coffee even though they have the equipment and resources.
Useful TIP: If you see steam coming out of the filter when brewing then either use a coarser grind size for coffee and tamper/press the coffee lightly as this machine is not designed to handle too high pressures. Also Try using dark roasted coffee as it will work better with coarser grinds.
That being said its obviously not for those obsessed with getting a perfect expresso and crema in under 35 seconds with proper extraction. Its too cheap for that. But believe me even the 30k delonghi won’t get you there you’ll need something like breville for that. So I love this machine in that respect.

Good machine but there is a steam leak. Coffee scoop doesn’t have the standard design for compressing the powder hence leaves a lot of residue. Big failure in design

Good finished product. Once you get familiar with the ratio for the coffee powder and milk combination then you can have some really tasty coffee. Would recommend this product for beginners. Worth buying this quality item.

The product spilled the coffee all over the room after 2 days of use. Either it has a locking issue or autoshut issue because i have pretty decent ecperience with expresso machines. I was trying to extract 2 cup of espresso on day 3 and after 1 cup it made noise and all of a sudden the coffee filter unlocked and spilled coffee with all the remaining water . I am guessing it is due to extra pressure which indicates that the product has either locking issue or the auto cut off issue to ensure the water steam is not excessive. Build quality is good though compared to other machines and it is very easy to use and clean. I May have received a defective product.
