So far so good! First impressions on this was that the plastics chosen for parts of the machine were very lightweight.. to me, lightweight feels cheap. The portafilter is also very lightweight which I don’t love. However, this has been so awesome to use !!The fact that you can push a button and the espresso will brew and you can walk away if needed is so convenient (especially when you have three young kids and ALOT going on in your house). So the espresso setting is great - we haven’t had any issues with the coffee getting clogged etc. but the real show stopper here is the milk frother and the different milk buttons. You can set the level of milk froth you like with the dial on the side and it foams the milk for you and it pours right into your cup. I am obsessed with the milk frother. I look forward to every morning when I get to make my coffee. It’s so perfectly creamy and delicious. An added plus is that if you add too much milk to the milk container, you can pop it off and put it in the fridge until the next coffee (which is several times a day in our house). I am also pleased with the height you have to place a cup under the brewer. Has more height than our previous machine so we can fit almost every coffee mug we have under it (aside from one taller cup we have). Also love that this goes into “standby” mode after it finishes brewing, so if you forget to turn it off it’s not just burning up all the pieces inside like our last machine.Will update if we have any malfunctions or issues. So far it’s been great to have !

Everything I was looking for in a home unit!! Easy to use and clean Great price
