What reviewers agree on
Each point is made by at least two of the independent reviews linked after it. We don't own or test the products we cover; see how we choose.
- Easy to use: it suggests a grind setting after each shot and guides you through each step. (Tom's Coffee Corner, Home Coffee Expert, Expert Reviews (UK model))
- Hands-free milk frothing works well. (Tom's Coffee Corner, Home Coffee Expert, Expert Reviews (UK model))
- It flushes water after every drink, so the drip tray needs emptying often. (Tom's Coffee Corner, Home Coffee Expert)
- Manual steaming is possible but hidden in the controls. (Tom's Coffee Corner, Home Coffee Expert)
- It offers little manual control, which espresso enthusiasts may find limiting. (Tom's Coffee Corner, Expert Reviews (UK model))
Worth knowing
- Reviewers split on the lever tamper: one liked its metal lever (Tom's Coffee Corner); two said you can't feel how hard you're pressing, and one called it plasticky. (Home Coffee Expert, Expert Reviews (UK model))
Raised by one reviewer: light roasts ran long and tasted flat, and the cold brew was among the best they had tried (Home Coffee Expert); grind suggestions were inconsistent between shots (Expert Reviews (UK model)).
How it compares
- vs. Luxe Café Premier ($599.99): same grinder, scale and guided brewing, without hot water, the lever tamper or the single basket. Full comparison.
- vs. Breville Barista Express Impress ($799.95): also helps with tamping, but you steam milk yourself.
