At home espresso is something I never thought I could handle... but this little machine is perfect! It's super easy to set up and it comes with a quick start guide, which gets you brewing your first espresso in minutes. I prefer straight espresso, but my friends were really impressed when I pulled out the milk frother attachment to make them a latte.  My favorite thing about this espresso machine is how compact it is; it fits perfectly on my countertop without sacrificing space. Definitely a must buy!
