Fantastic machine that makes great coffee, once you get used to it. Takes a few coffees to get the settings right but once you have it's very rewarding. The drip tray need emptying regularly. Overall very happy.

Well, I'm not going out for coffee any time soon. The Express is all you need to get proper barista coffee without leaving the house. Once you've dialled the grind and pour settings in, it's just press and go. It's the first home machine I've used where the steam wand actually does what it's supposed to. Just spend the money, you won't regret it.

Coffee maker was exactly as advertised, easy to set up and fitted in to the space we allocated. The instructions on how to make the coffee were easy to follow even down to the fine adjustments to get it to our particular taste. The only thing left to do is get the milk right just needs a little more practice to get it right first time.

Spent ages reading reviews for the barista express, so when my mum asked us what we’d like as a moving in present we knew what we wanted! We’ve always had a nespresso - and they’re good machines, but this thing is a different gravy, we picked up some beans from the local coffee roasters, after a few attempts learning how coarse to grind the bean, finding the right pressure, learning to froth and steam the milk for the correct texture etc etc. We were producing shop quality coffees at home! If you’re into coffee, and have a decent bean source, don’t hesitate to get this machine!

Easy to use and set up. A good number of features for a great price tag.

Excellent. This machine is the optimum balance of affordability and great cafe quality at home. Highly recommended.

Excellent coffee machine for fresh coffee throughout the day. Although slightly more expensive than the conventional coffee machines, this is definitely a much better quality machine than others on the market. Love our machine!

only had it a week but think it is a great machine and really love to use.
