Spent 6 years as a bartending barista in an establishment that boasted a $65k espresso machine and honestly; that machine put out garbage water compared to the pulls out of this breville! Performance is consistent and strong for a countertop machine that fits under my cupboards – and while I thought ‘ugh I’ll probably use it twice and then never again…’ – I’m literally using it right now (6:55am) and have every day (sometimes 3 times a day) since the day it arrived.
… btw; i … love-LOVE these reviews sayin stuff like “it’s so loud! My 7 kids wake up the second I turn it on!”… lolll; Like a technological miracle of a machine superheating water in 7 seconds for a stellar espresso or latte made with the almost commercial-power steam wand is gonna whisper like an angel in the morning, KAREN… maybe stick with your dunkin’ K cups and your preservative packed Starbucks abominations, MARY… and leave real espresso machines alone.
This machine is a wonder. And if you don’t understand how to use it or what to expect; maybe don’t buy this – again, to those leaving the bad reviews regarding the very lite maintenance every three months?? Descaling and cleaning this beast is simple compared to commercial machines and their daily scrubbings … if you expect any appliance, especially this one to be maintenance free – don’t buy this because you don’t know what you’re doing and you don’t know that an ‘espresso machine’ won’t make you a venti Carmel crunch frappacinno with extra drizzle. Lol.
In closing, thank you breville for the crazy work that went into creating your entire line and I worship my machine.

Stellar Experience with Espresso Machine
This is a really positive review because the espresso machine is top-notch. Its sleek design adds to my kitchen decor, and the espresso it makes is superb. We have been cranking out amazing lattes since we got it. Would definitely recommend!
