Purchased this machine on 12/13/16 as a gift for myself and my girlfriend. We recieved it on 12/19/17. We were planning on moving so never opened it. Fast forward.....we moved and have been looking forward to finally opening and using the new machine. Opened it (finally!!) on Christmas Eve (12/24/17) and opened a can of the capsules. Followed directions according to diagram. Used several times on 12/24/17 and loved it. My now fiancee even raved to her father (who owns a competitor espresso machine) how easy it works. Fast forward to 12/25/17 Christmas morning. I get up and go to make my Christmas morning espresso only to find that the machine is leaking water from where the capsule wand is. Wow. Less than 24 hours of use and broken already. Unfortunately since we waited a year to open it, the warranty is now void. Great. Definitely would not recommend. I will be tossing the machine and purchasing a more solid brand that can last more than 24 hours.
