Brews an ok esspresso

If not for the repeated issues with the frother, I think this would be a great unit for the average home user.

Simple and brews a pretty good cup of espresso

On the one I got from a local retailer the frother was plugged right out of the box. Read multiple reviews of people having the same issue right out of the box or within a couple month and decided that I would return this and not risk getting another...

Going well

I am careful how much water I put in the top as you need to release all the pressure before you open the top cap. Also, it's a bit annoying having to clean the milk steamer, but I suspect that is true of any espresso machine.

Brews espresso quickly. Every cup seems to come out great! Steamer steams milk very quickly and is surprisingly powerful. For how cheap this is, it functions very well. Also looks nice sitting in my kitchen

It isn't an expensive espresso machine so it is made mostly of plastic. However this doesn't affect the taste or function of the machine as all the important parts are metal
