This is the 3rd or 4th one of these we've bought. It is a workhorse for 2-3 years and then is ready for the barn. For the money you can't beat it. It used to be $40-$50 and would pay for itself in $ saved from Starbucks - still does but it just takes 8-9 days instead of 4-5. It's better cappuccino too.

I am slightly disappointed of the espresso machine because it takes quite some time to get it hot enough too froth your milk. The froth wand is stuck in one place makes it a bit difficult to froth, and the actual coffee tray does not allow quite enough pressure build-up for a quality espresso and a rich crema but considering the price it's a decent machine.

I bought this espresso machine so that I could make myself a mocha anytime I wanted one. No need to get out in the snow and cold to buy one. I can just fix my own right in the comforts of my nice warm kitchen. This machine is convenient and easy to use. The frother can be a little tricky. Once you get the hang of frothing, you have it made. I am sure there are better machines out there but for the price and convenience, this machine has been well worth the money.
The machine is easy enough to use and brews strong coffee quickly. The steamer tube is difficult to clean and the o ring has come off twice. The main complaint is a heavy metal taste and smell. Tried cleaning per instructions but still hint of metal taste and smell.

Good machine. Works just fine. Ran 10 cycles of water through it before use and still had some type of small particle residue coming through but working just fine.
