I'm no espresso expert and this is the first espresso machine I've owned, but I'm glad I bought it. Espresso is so much better than drip coffee. The grind size and quantity seem to be very consistent. I wish it came with more accessories for preparing the portafilter, though, as it can be difficult to get the grounds flat and even, leading to more espresso coming out one side of the portafilter.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Love the product, easy to use!

8 days ago
I feel there might be something wrong with my unit. The tray underneath needs to be emptied every 2-3 days. Is this normal? It feels like a slow leak to me

Yes, I recommend this product.

Consistent Quality!

8 days ago
I am really enjoying this machine! It is easy to dial in, and it consistently makes quality espresso. The grinder is quiet and does not make any mess (the anti-static feature works well). For comparison, I use a Baratza Encore grinder for drip coffee; I like that grinder, but it sounds like a freight train compared to the integrated burr grinder in the espresso machine. This espresso machine heats up quickly and switches between espresso, steam, and hot water functions quickly. I was initially hesitant to purchase this machine only because my friends predominantly use Breville espresso machines. However, I am glad I went with this one. This machine appears to meet the same quality standards as my other KitchenAid products: we recently purchased a stand mixer and also have a 30+ year old KitchenAid refrigerator that came with our house. I am absolutely sold on KitchenAid products — they are built like tanks and perform exactly as promised!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Great machine but needs the right espresso beans!

10 days ago
This is a really great in-home espresso machine but the type of espresso beans you use definitely matter. Do NOT use dark roast/oily beans. Your machine won’t work right. As soon as we switched to medium roast espresso beans, we were in the espresso range and the shots pulled beautifully!

Yes, I recommend this product.
