Customer Review: Saving real (star)BUCKS
Summary: 5 Stars
I was tired of paying $10+ a week for a good latte in the mornings, and decided to purchase this machine. With a little practice, it wasn't hard to create Starbucks-worthy beverages with this machine.
This machine is pretty simple to figure out, and the instructions that come with it are very straight forward. I have no experience making espresso drinks and it didn't take me very long to catch on. I have owned the machine for about 6 months, and I only spend about 5-10 minutes in the morning to make a drink and clean up the machine.
All the parts come apart easily and it is very easy to clean. One tip I would have is to remove the nozzle on the milk frother (it twists off easily) and clean it out under the sink (or dishwasher, if you want) to make sure you get all of the milk out of it.
There are very few negatives I have for this product. This frother is pretty noisy, but that's certainly manageable. Also, the brew button doesn't turn off automatically, so you have to be standing by to make sure it doesn't overflow and it brews the amount of espresso you want.
It would have been nice if this machine came with a few espresso mugs and a milk frothing cup, but for the price you can't really complain.
Overall, I would highly suggest purchasing this machine. I make hot and iced beverages quickly and easily. If you use the pricier espresso (from a starbucks/barnies/etc) it will taste just like the real thing!
