The excitement I have for this barista system is an understatement to say the least because it really is everything and more that a great coffee system can be . First off the setup was a breeze , I don't think I've ever had an easier time setting the clock , just a turn of the knob which simplicity with multi functions is much appreciated.  I am a coffee lover and own several machines and varieties so it really is a space saver to have it all in one setup . Making coffee was easy , even a scoop on the side of the machine for quick measuring.  Easy to find spot to insert nespresso pods . The milk frother was quick and really gave a nice good .5 inch layer of froth which is my favorite for a latte.  Overal its visually appealing it looks great sitting on a counter top . It didn't fall short of any expectations I had in a barista system as it performed perfectly .
