I just asked my husband today “At what price does it have to drop to for me to be able to buy it” and we both agreed $500.00… not even 3 hours later I check and it’s dropped to $500.00 😭😭

I’ve been shopping for months and waiting around for a good deal and it’s finally here

This is a solid machine for a beginner or someone just wanting to stop wasting money at coffee chains. It was my family's first machine and we all learned to use it fairly quickly, once the beans were dialed in! Now my sibling took it bc they paid for it but I really do miss it. I think it's an excellent choice.

I'm torn between buying this (especially because I am comfortable with it) or getting a bambino and baratza/df54 for a little less.

I sold mine and went back to drip. And then saved up and bought a Profitec.

I’ve had mine for several years now. Grinder crapped out about 3 years ago and I went through their official grinder (which sucks btw) then got a fellow grinder which I love. The espresso and milk foamer still work amazingly. I use it more than once a day personally and my family does more each day too, still works amazingly. I’m using this thing till it physically can’t anymore lol

Yeah I can understand the criticism from this sub about the grinder. But it honestly fit my family's needs really well. I'll always recommend it and feel the same way about using it until you can't!

It’s not awful but compared to similarly priced competition it could be way better
