Beautiful Slim Espresso Machine with 20-Bar Pressure, White Icing by Drew Barrymore

I have been wanting an espresso machine for so long! I work as a paraprofessional with special needs children in an elementary school so coffee is a must. I was worried I wouldn't understand how to work the machine but I instantly figured it out. Not hard to operate and very quick, which is perfect on those rushed work mornings! I have the crockpot from this brand and absolutely love it so when I saw that the price of the espresso machine had been knocked down I knew it was meant to be haha.

Wow! I am so impressed by the design, and quality. You must follow the instructions to learn to use. Make sure you clean before the first use and to the whole process. I have only used the Starbucks Espresso with this machine and it’s absolutely delicious, I prefer it over store bought iced americanos. Very easy to clean. The only thing I don’t use yet is the forth because I prefer iced americanos.

Very nice white and gold collection. I've had multiple kitchen appliances from this collection and I've loved them all. The coffee espresso machine is the perfect size for my small kitchen and apartment—it looks great and works great .At the beginning it was a little complicated, but after watching a few YouTube videos, everything was easy to set up and use.

We got off to a rocky start with this little espresso maker. I even boxed it up to return it at one point but when it worked, it made delicious espresso so I gave her another chance. I'm so glad I did. I believe the Illy Espresso may have been a bit too fine for this machine but the Lavaza works beautifully. You have to be sure not to go too high when you pack the espresso in or it will clog and not brew properly but if you keep it clean and not get the espresso clogged it really works perfectly and especially for the price! * I usually brew 2 doubles off of 2 packed scoops of espresso. It's the perfect strength. It's delicious hot or cold. We have even done some flavored coffee but be sure to put it on the espresso grind when grinding it. Maybe even closer to the Turkish setting. My coffee game has been changed for the better. It's coffee house quality every day!

Honestly I haven't had a problem with it at all . I clean it every time like it says and keeps on running good I've had it about two months now , yes it's loud they actually all are my sister get a 3,000 dollar one an honestly hers is louder , but makes my coffee great an I enjoy it at such a good price cheaper an keeps working ;) . Only thing I wish different is I would have waited a week to get one so I could get the purple , but whites ok for same day delivery .

I went from a very expensive espresso machine to this one so I had very low expectations. The machine is very cute. Looks great on the counter which my other one did not. The froth takes a little finesse and it's important to have cold items before you begin. I do believe that as a little espresso machines takes some time to figure it out.. The espresso is smooth and has great taste.

It's just OK. For the price I really wanted to love it but I'm disappointed. Its not intuitive at all to use, unfortunately I can say this is the case across this entire line of products. I liked the look so much I purchased a coffee maker, espresso machine and toaster/air frier and they all have the same issue. The digital interface is clunky, illogical and overly tricky. Sadly I think all the money went into the digital features and the quality of the actual product is severely lacking. Coffee wise... 1. You can't actually fit 2 scoops of espresso for a double shot. It fills up the portafilter too much and it won't fit into the machine. 2. Espresso quality is just mediocre. Puck is soupy. 3. Steamer/hot water dispenser is flaky

* Espresso Machine = Delicious Hot cup @ Home. * Color of Machine = Beautiful Sage Green. * Barrymore Brand = Enjoyed %26 Loved E.T. CONTINUOUS PROBLEMS with Sliding the Espresso Basket into place. Therefore, delicious hot espresso drinks were a drive away ~

This espresso machine is very pretty and slim, but the performance is frustrating. Unless I physically hold the espresso button down, it only dispenses about two tablespoons at a time, which is not enough for a proper cup. Having to manually hold the button every time feels like a design flaw. The espresso tastes okay, but the inconvenience outweighs the aesthetics. If I had to do it again, I would not purchase this machine.

Unfortunately the double pour does not work properly. It either does only one shot or you're waiting longer than expected for any pour, also forgets the programed pour.I have read in other forums same issues. Such a shame the manufacturer don't fix the issue cuz its looks beautiful in the kitchen!
