So my husband and kids love Espresso, Latte's and Cappuccino's and spend way to much money at a certain establishment (wink wink) and this Mr. Coffee is absolutly perfect! First off it looks good, we have it on our kitchen island and it doesn't take up a bunch of space, it's actually pretty compact and it look nice.  It's very user friendly and comes with a very easy to follow instuctional guide but this is so easy and quick, you'll get the hang of it after making a couple drinks. It is very easy to clean, although it states dishwasher safe, I prefer to just wash by hand. I can't wait for the holidays and I can offer everyone some great coffee drinks, we've been expiramenting with the recipe guide which offers a lot of different options.
