As an everyday coffee drinker that likes variety, this machine is well worth it. It looks sleek and is super easy to operate. If you love cold brew (me!) this machine serves up a super delicious bev. I like to make my own almond milk so avoid specialty coffee at cafes. It really produces a flavorful cappuccino and is very consistent. This is my first automated espresso machine, I used to make pour over at home, and amazed I ever survived with our it.
