I’ve been using the Cafe Barista for almost 2 weeks and it’s absolutely amazing!! I received it packaged well. Everything was easy to remove from the box. After removing all the packaging from the machine, I washed all the removable pieces and reservoirs. Instructions are easy to read and it also comes with a recipe book. Definitely comes in handy since this is my first time making espresso. The buttons are easy to use and function. Makes a great cup of espresso!! It’s like having a coffee shop in your own home. This will definitely save me money!!
