Breville Barista Express BES870XL

Okay, second recommendation of the Gaggia. I guess it’s time to make a list and check it twice. Thank you! You have no idea how much I want a good espresso at home.

But don’t get a all in one machine, if you get enthusiastic it won’t last you a long time and you’ll throw away money. If you do want a all in one get a used breville.

Understood, this is great advice! I will take a look at the Profitec & Mignon. I probably should have prefaced that I only drink espresso shots.

Run, run away from this machine as fast as you can. It is a cheap Chinese knock-off and should be avoided.

If you want an all in one machine then look the Breville barista express or impress. I bought the Express on sale at Amazon last week for $549. I think it's an excellent starter set-up.

Don’t buy espresso machine with integrated grinder, especially at this budget. I have been looking into a new setup to replace my Breville Barista Express with similar budget...

I actually have a version of this white labeled machine that I’ve been using for about 3 years almost everyday, though I only paid like $250 for it at Walmart. At $440, absolutely not. Surprisingly it

Check our espressocoffeeshop website, super low prices (but keep in mind tariffs, they are in Italy)

I wouldn’t get this machine or breville/sage machines. I had sage barista pro and it’s group head leaked water, apparently its screws lose and I opened it up put some lock tide, it worked for a while

If you read this forum you most likely will come down to the kitchenaid kf series or delonghi eletta explore. For the requirements you put, I would consider a kf7 at 999us. The eletta explore is also

I’m partial to the KitchenAid series. I’ve been fortunate enough to own or try a few of the major brands and found that KitchenAid offers the best blend of cost, performance, and maintenance. The Delo
