Wow wow wow! I am so happy with this machine! I have tried so many different machine types- from Keurig to nespresso to actual fresh ground espresso machines- this is by far my favorite! The machine is super easy to use and all the buttons are logical and user friendly. This also brews, IMHO, the best cup of coffee. I have been disappointed in espresso machines because a full cup of coffee ends up feeling weak- this is anything but! It took me a while experimenting with different beans- but now that I found my favorite I will never need to go to a coffee shop again!
