Oh my goodness I love this little machine so much! It does not come with a steaming pitcher so you’ll need one of those and the tamper is terrible but you can buy a better one at a kitchen supply store. I love the design and it warms up pretty fast. Only thing I’m not crazy about is the steam wand. My husband and I were both baristas so we know how to get that velvety foam but the steam wand is designed to create froth so it’s a bit difficult to control the consistency. I’m still working on a technique that doesn’t involve big milk bubbles to the top of the pitcher. Eventually I want a $2000 Italian machine hooked up in my kitchen but until then, this machine is perfect
