Espresso machine
I love the color and ease of use. This machine makes a delcious espresso. It fits perfect on my coffee nook countertop.
Like Sinatra sang...
...Way down among Brazilians, Coffee beans grow by the billions, So they've got to find those extra cups to fill. They've got an awful lot of coffee in Brazil. I have owned this now for about 2 months and can say without hesitation that is a VERY high quality Espresso Machine! The honest truth is I drink at least 8 cups a day and my "little" KitchenAid Espresso is a genuine workhorse that is used throughout my day. I am retired now and this is my first Espresso maker and I prefer it to regular coffee. I also gave one to my younger sister and she too, enjoys it a LOT!! I do wish it had more pressure as there is a thin film of water left on the top of every brew but that may be normal as again, I have never owned an Espresso Machine so that may be part of the process. I cannot recommend this enough to anyone that wants a beautifully made, good look and FAST espresso machine!
Great for steamed milk
I bought this a couple of months ago and have used this many time since then. I like that it has a small footprint and looks nice sitting on the counter. I bought it specifically for being able to steam milk for my hot tea and it does this very well. I cannot speak to how well it makes espresso.
