CASABREWS 3700 Essential Espresso Machine 20 Bar, Stainless Steel Cappuccino & Latte Machine with Steam Frother for Home, 43.9oz Water Tank, Coffee Gift for Women & Men, Silver

EDIT: I am upgrading my review to 5 starts due to amazing customer support I received. I was a bit unlucky to receive a machine that makes water smell horrible. I had to ran it with just water for 3-5 times (depending if it is after 9 hrs of hight or just 4 hrs of it being inactive). I tried running citric acid- it did help for a while. Anyways....I got a refund from the company. So my point is: every piece of product cannot be ideal when it leaves the conveyor line in the factory. And this is where customer support comes into play. Yes, I was unlucky to receive probably that one faulty piece, but customer support rectified my disappointment. I am still using the machine (after flushing it with citric acid and continuously flushing with just water) and it is producing amazing espresso! I have just made myself mind-blowing capuchino! I love the build quality of the machine and it does extract coffee to the fullest (silly me, tried to re-use coffee from the Porta filter in my Coffee maker thinking that that there is still so much flavor left and that the espresso machine just couldn't extract it so well...Well all I got was dark brown water with slight aroma of coffee 😅). So yes...the machine does do a great job on that!Oh, and I found my single shot filter scotched thoroughly to the Styrofoam packaging! So make sure you check the packaging well before complaining they had forgotten to put another filter (just like I did lol).Bellow is my original review:I have to run it with an empty filter three times before I can make my first cup of espresso. I put fresh water which doesn't smell (and water reservoir doesn't smell either). Apparently, there is a compartment inside the machine where water stays (and heats up for your espresso) and after staying there overnight it starts smelling like a process water or technical water.Another thing, just like many others noted here, my machine arrived with one filter missing. There is supposed to be two: single and double portion filter, but I received only one.The espresso however tastes well after running the machine three times empty.Well, what would you expect from an espresso machine of that price , right?

Soy barista aficionado, he pasado por varias marcas y sin duda esta es de las mejores que he tenido. El espresso mejora muchísimo si compras un filtro sin fondo. Para emulsionar la leche va bastante bien, la presión es constante y la lanceta tiene el tamaño ideal, lo que recomiendo es que se purgue un poco más de lo habitual, esto para que se llegue al punto de presión necesario y se mantenga en éste mismo.

An excellent little espresso maker! Brews great espresso and steamer works perfectly. Ran the rinse cycles as outlined in the instructions and found no issues with taste or smell. I had no previous experience with espresso machines and found this easy to set up and use. I love it's small size as I have limited counter space. The only thing I would change is that I wish the steam arm was slightly higher or that it raised a little further to get my cup under a bit easier.

Terrific Buy Absolutely love this Machine. It's incredibly easy to use, and heats up quickly to a very acceptable temperature. It’s also quiet and easy to clean. This machine lives up to the hype and is worth every penny. Definitely recommend !!

Wonderful Machine I waited to review this machine until I had used it for a few months. It has held up extremely well. I'm extremely happy with this machine. It is really well built and a quality home machine for the average person. If you need all of the fancy bells and whistles then this one probably won't suit your needs but for someone who just needs some good espresso and steamed milk, this is phenomenal. It is really well priced for what it accomplishes. I love the metal exterior and just how sturdy this machine feels. There seems to be very little plastic involved which is super nice.My only notes of things I didn't like are the "factory smell" when it first came and how long it takes the cup warmer to get warmed up. Both are pretty manageable and aren't super big issues. To get rid of the factory smell, rinse the heck out of it. It will linger for a bit but it does go away, trust me. The warmer can be "primed" by doing a clear water run first after you turn it on. It gets fairly warm after that. I barely use the warmer anyway but that does get it warmed up.The sound and noise of it is pretty impressive for a budget machine. It will make a loud grumble at first when pouring the shot but it lasts for maybe a second or two and then goes to a low hum during the rest.As for the taste, I have to say it's very nice. I've used a few different types of coffee for it. My favorite so far has been from a local shop that roasts their beans in house and grinds them for you if you ask during the purchase. That's my biggest recommendation for a nice beverage, is fresh quality coffee. I don't have a grinder at the moment but I'm planning on getting one soon to just make it even better. That's the only reason I don't grind them myself. I prefer that type of coffee but I have used Cafe Bustelo with this machine and if you're making lattes, it does the job. I recommend getting better coffee though if you can.The steam wand is one of my favourite parts of this machine and it was a major reason that I gravitated towards this machine. The wand doesn't feel loose or flimsy like many budget machines do. This one is nice, hefty, powerful, and very nice looking.I highly recommend this machine to anyone who just needs a simple yet good machine. It is great for people who are on a budget and can't afford the ones you see in the YouTube shorts from influencer baristas. This one is a great deal. Just work with it a bit and then it'll be easy. It just takes acquainting yourself with it and getting a rhythm going.

Good, Basic Espresso and Latte Machine My daughter has been into coffee and espresso for a while and asked for this specific machine for an early Christmas gift. I can't provide a lot of information (I don't drink coffee), but she really enjoys this and has been working on her latte art.As an inexpensive machine, this small unit fits on the counter and does everything she wants. We did purchase a separate milk frothing pitcher, but that's a minor added expense.

Much better quality and reliability than I expected at this price. Very solid machine for the price.I used to work for a high end coffee company, and I'm used to seeing high end La Marzoccho's.The one's we had were north of 10 grand.This is not 5 stars the way one of those would be.It also costs less to buy than the minimum service call charge on one of those.But for a home user who isn't on the bleeding edge of coffee culture - it close enough.At this price point, it gives up a couple of features.You might have to wait a few seconds when switching between brewing and steaming, because it's a single boiler.If those seconds are sufficiently precious to you, there are companies that will return them to you in exchange for an extra $400.I've never had to wait more than 5 seconds.Oh, it also has a time limit on how long continuously the steamer will run.Then it needs a couple seconds to catch it's breath and it good for another cycle.Don't remember how long it runs, but it's good foe steaming 22 oz off 33F milk to the point where it's hot but not scalding.If you need to steam a larger quantity, you can either wait a couple of seconds and hit the button again, or start making preps for the next shot you're going to need anyway for that Big Gulp latte you're making.It pulls a good shot out of the box, and I have not had to mess with the timing, but adjustments are available and the manual is clear about how to make them.It also has a reset function if you screw it up and need to start over.The water container for it is large enough that I have yet to have to refill it during the day.And I usually don't bother to checking before pulling the first shot of the day.Construction is solid.I mean, I haven't disassembled it or anything.But everything fits precisely - doesn't make unseemly noises, and it would look good on any countertop.No one is going to look at it and get the impression it's cheap.In fact, it's good looking enough that I down play it when ever anyone sees it for the first time.Don't want them thinking I suddenly inherited money or something.I picked this machine after spending a lot of time comparing features, reading reviews, and reflecting on priorities.I could have spent a lot more - but I don't know what else I could have expected.I could have spent a little less, but this looked like my best bet, and I think I won.I have flogged this machine hard.My wife drinks a lot of coffee - for medical reasons actually.I hear people raving about the endurance of machines they operate "at least once a week."I run this one probably 10 times a day average - granted it's only been a couple of months - but it's been utterly flawless.This is kind of a disposable appliance.At a hundred bucks, no one is sending it in for service, no repairman is going to make a house call.But I've probably pull more shots through it than most people pull in a year, without any issues at all, so I am well satisfied with the value.

Great machine! No more Starbucks cappuccinos. Love this machine. So sleek and pretty. Small footprint that takes very little counter space. Super easy to use. Expresso comes out great, with a lot of foam. Makes single and double shots - with a good quantity. The steam/ frothed works great too for steaming and frothing milk for cappuccinos. You have to put the wand at the top of the liquid for a good froth, not too deep down. It has suction cups on the bottom to keep it sturdy and in place. It comes out fairly hot but may need to microwave it a few seconds if you don’t drink it right away. Good for the money at under $100.
