High Quality

As a former Capsule user, I got tired of spending so much money on pods every month and having old and pre-grind coffee, so I decided to switch back to making real fresh grind coffee myself. This machine is solidly built, with most of its major parts made of metal. I went for the stainless steel version, and it honestly looks like a much pricier piece of equipment.
Using the machine is pretty straightforward. You just grind the coffee, load it into the machine, and you're basically set. You can fine-tune it for the size of the grounds and how much you want to fill the portafilter. It also comes with three extra filter baskets and a cup for steaming milk. The filter baskets fit neatly in a hidden drawer behind the tray at the bottom. The machine also has wheels, so it's easy to move around. It's big enough to be noticeable but not like you'd run a coffee shop with it. The milk frother is amazing and strong. You can run a cafe with this machine.
The price of this wonderful machine compared to the cost of those teastless nespresso capsules is peanuts.
