I have owned a Breville espresso machine for 11 years and it has worked very well for me. I am buying this one because my old one will not steam properly for me even after cleaning it. I think it may be wearing out. It has had a good run though!
To make it easy to give guests at our house in Utah many choices and simplify the whole coffee experience for ourselves. Also, to save on store bought lattes etc. and reduce waste from paper cups and plastic tops.
It is a beautiful machine, it has most of the functions I would like to have in a home barista machine, and Breville is a sold brand.I can't wait to enter my own drink and enjoy any time I want from the comfort of my own home. Cheers!
After extensive research, this machine is rated as the easiest to use for this quality of latte, etc. Also, the next model up is about double the price.

This machine is the best! You can't go wrong with the automatic settings, wand cleaning . Flavor and taste is perfect. It's my boyfriend's fault. He introduced me to this and then I bought one for my house, then my dad bought one after seeing mine and now we are buying a third for a second house. LOVE IT
Wanted to upgrade my espresso machine. This one had a great balance between automation and control. Also I love the stainless steel case. I do like their appliances very much.

Is the machine hard to move? I would need to slide it forward in order to remove the water tank for refilling.

BEST ANSWER:Not particularly difficult to move. The feet are grippy, so when we reposition it (mostly to refill beans), we “walk” it forward moreso than sliding it. I don’t bother moving it to access the water tank, instead preferring to fill it with a large measuring cup; the tank is a bit awkward to fill and I think it’s easier to leave in place and bring the water to it.

BEST ANSWER:You can have a regular cup of Joe. But rather than a drip coffee like from a pot or Keurig, you make an Americano. Basically you make 1 or 2 shots of espresso and then dilute it with the hot water. It's one of the pre-defined drinks from the touch screen.
