★★★☆☆
Good shots, noisy grinder
The espresso itself is quite good, but the grinder is very loud, which is a bit of a nuisance first thing in the morning. Also, finding the right grind setting takes some trial and error, which wastes a few beans.

Customer reviews
What customers say: Excellent espresso flavor and an integrated grinder are highlights, though the manual steam wand has a learning curve and the grinder can be noisy.

Grinder issues
The grinder stopped working properly after just a few weeks of use.
★★★★★
Cafe quality at home
This machine delivers on its promise. The conical burr grinder is excellent, providing a consistent grind for perfect extraction every time.
★★★★☆
Good, but learning curve
The espresso quality is fantastic once you get the grind size and tamping right. It took a bit of experimenting to dial everything in perfectly, especially with the manual frothing.
★★★★☆
Solid machine, minor gripes
This makes really good espresso and the built-in grinder is convenient. My only minor complaint is the water tank could be a little bigger, though 67 fl. oz is still decent.
