We got this in an effort to reduce the amount of money we spend at big name coffee shops. So far this thing is a game changer. It is really heavy duty and easy to set up. We have made a bunch of different style drinks and it is so easy to use. We love that you can grind the beans fresh which really kicks up the flavor. We had a Nespresso Machine before this and there not even comparable. It is not to big and sits nicely on our counter. We have made some really quality drinks out of this. For a coffee loving family trying to save some money with chaotic mornings this thing is a game changer and a life saver.
