I just got into having an at home espresso machine for a little over a year now and had a big name brand before this one and all I can say the old machine doesn’t even come close to this! This has so much to offer between its automatic grinder and 3 temperature settings to work toward that perfect cup. It’s going to take time and practice getting used to this but it’s still pretty easy that a person who has never done one at home before can use it. There’s a couple minor things I would tweak on this but that’s just me and my preferences. Overall it is a great machine for any espresso lover to have at home!
