A solid espresso machine for home use, but you definitely need to pair it with a good grinder. The heat-up time is impressively fast, and I like how intuitive the controls are. The only issue I faced is that it gets a little hot after back-to-back shots, so you have to give it a short break. Other than that, it’s an absolute beast for making café-style espresso at home.

This machine has provided me with a plethora of features to experiment with, including variable temperature, brew pressure, and a powerful steam wand. Although the steam wand could have been designed to remain cool to the touch for safety purposes, the machine offers great flexibility and room for experimentation with different roast levels and bean types. While it primarily focuses on espresso, it can also accommodate milk-based beverages. Back-to-back shots may experience slight inconsistency, but overall, this machine delivers excellent value for the price and will satisfy both personal and group coffee needs. I would like to express my gratitude to the SB Support team for their outstanding recommendation.

If you're looking for a reliable espresso machine, this is it! I love how it extracts espresso so smoothly, and the temperature control works like a charm. The steam wand takes a little practice if you’re new, but once you get the hang of it, it creates silky smooth milk foam. Wish it came with a slightly bigger water tank, but that’s just a minor thing.

Loving my morning coffee routine with this—best purchase ever.
