A nice little machine. I wanted an espresso machine for a long time, but I did not want one that takes premade pods, and that was all I was finding in my price point. I don't have $400+ to spend on an espresso machine. So this was a great find. Not to big or small, easy to set up, easy to clean and makes a great shot/cup of espresso.  I liked the machine so much, I ended purchasing a Capresso coffee maker as well.
