Im really enjoying being able to make my own espresso at home, no more quick trips to town and wasting my money, I was so intimidated when I first got this machine but was surprised how easy it is to use. I thought to myself I could never make a espresso like the pros do but mine actually tastes better! I love all the variety of flavors you can make, I like different flavors at different times of the year so its perfect. The milk frother was super easy to use as well. Im so happy with this machine, it has changed my life, I have limited counter space in my kitchen and it doesnt take up much room at all.
