I was in absolute awe of the beautiful matte black finish. My first thought of the KitchenAid Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine is that it would be complicated to use but I was wrong. It is actually a fairly simple process to use. Being able to make my own espresso at home makes it takes even more delicious and energizing. It is also a money saver since I got the machine I have been creating my own espressos without going out to buy one. I'd definitely recommend it to espresso lovers like myself.
