CASABREWS CM5418 Espresso Machine 20 Bar, Small Espresso Maker with Milk Frother Steam Wand, Stainless Steel Espresso Coffee Machine with 34oz Removable Water Tank, Cafetera Espresso, Creamy

This is an excellent espresso maker for the home. I had a KRUPS for over 20 years which still works, but I thought I would upgrade. This machine, when compared to others, appeared to me to be the best for the price. I was not disappointed. It works perfectly and makes a delicious espresso. Construction is solid and it doesn't take up a lot of space on the counter. You need to read the directions carefully and follow them. The directions are clear and straight forward. Be advised that this machine when operating, like most espresso machines, is a little noisy, but nothing unbearable.

I LOVE this machine! I don’t leave reviews but I have to for this purchase. I bought mine during the July Amazon prime days so I’ve had it for abt 6 mos now. I’ve never had an issue with it. I use it multiple times a day and don’t know how I lived without it for so many yrs. It makes beautiful espresso shots and warms the milk to a frothy delicious drink. The only bad thing I can say abt this machine is it does get really loud when steaming the milk. So may not be the best choice for an office setting or somewhere where noise levels matter. It only takes a few mins to warm the milk tho so it’s not the biggest nuisance but should be noted. I highly recommend this product. It’s low maintenance, well made, relatively compact, esthetically pleasing and works beautifully. I also find it to be very affordable and worth every penny. It has saved us thousands of dollars from expensive daily lattes. 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

Compact, manual, functional, simple, it is easy to operate, easy to clean, and pulls good shots! It's not automatic in any way and it takes a few minutes to set up and a few more to clean the machine. It depends on your situation but I'll take a manual machine requiring more labor and a low price versus a more automatic machine that cost 3-6 times more money and has more things which can and often do break down. I gave it 5 Stars without hesitation as it meets my expectations and turn out a quality beverage!

I bought this machine around 3 months ago. I wanted to get into making espresso but didn't want to invest in a machine that cost me over $1,000. This machine came at a reasonable price and many coffee experts seemed to love it, so I made the purchase. The machine has a good build and it doesn't take up too much space on the kitchen counter. It's fairly straight-forward to use and makes really good espresso. The steam wand is a bit loud and takes a while to heat up, but for the price, it does its job remarkably well. I noticed the machine doesn't let you pull another shot right after you've steamed milk, so be aware of that when making more than one cup. The maker also has helpful videos on YouTube if you need to troubleshoot any problems. Overall, it's a fantastic machine for beginners as it's easy to use and makes great espresso.

I’m very impressed with the performance of the Casabrews CM5418. I’ve been using it almost everyday for nearly 2 months and I’m ready to share my thoughts: - I love espresso. The Casabrews CM5418 makes it very affordable to have delicious espresso drinks daily. It’s a great value for the sale price of under $120 that I paid on Amazon. - The machine is very stylish looking and its slim design doesn’t take up a lot of counter space. I have the silver one. - It’s a basic machine, lightweight stainless steel, but it’s not flimsy. I do need to hold it steady when inserting the portafilter, but that’s not a big deal. - As a beginner, I was intimidated about learning to operate the machine properly, but the clear instructions with photos make it truly easy and straightforward to get great results. - The Casabrews CM5418 makes hot delicious crema topped espresso! Each and every time! Not bad for my novice tastebuds. - The steam wand is also easy to froth hot milk for lattes. - There’s no built in grinder - but I already have a separate grinder and Amazon sells my favorite Italian espresso grind coffee. - I’m also experimenting with using the machine’s hot water and steam wand to make Matcha lattes and chocolate drinks. I highly recommend the Casabrews CM5418 for people who love quality espresso and have a limited budget.

Muy buena con accesorios mas adecuados hace maravillas

J'ai longtemps hésité à commander cette machine à espresso, cherchant à avoir un bon café de qualité sans trop y mettre d'argent. J'ai finalement passée ma commande et reçu la machine le lendemain. Je pensais sérieusement que j'allais devoir faire des essais-erreurs avant de réussir à avoir un bon espresso. J'ai préchauffé la machine comme recommandé par la marque, en faisant couler un 2 tasses, sans y mettre d'espresso, avant de faire une vraie tasse. Hé bien, mon tout premier espresso était vraiment excellent. J'ai choisi un sac de café Lavazza "crema e gusto" moulu finement que j'ai trouvé au supermarché, j'ai mis 11-13g dans mon portafilter, et dès ma première gorgée j'ai été grandement surprise. Aucun arrière-goût, aucune amertume. Un café très doux, mais fort en même temps. Points importants à noter: - Le mousseur à lait prend parfois un peu de temps à être bien chaud et je n'ai pas réussi à faire mousser mon lait au complet, mais ce n'était pas ma priorité. - Le mousseur est aussi très bruyant, au point de faire siler mes oreilles. - J'utilise l'eau chaude du mousseur à lait (sans mettre l'option steam) pour allonger mon espresso, mais parfois l'eau n'est pas aussi chaude que j'aimerais qu'elle le soit. Je suis très contente de mon achat, et après une semaine à me faire des café régulièrement je n'ai aucun problème majeur avec la machine. Je recommanderais clairement cette machine pour ceux qui souhaitent se faire des espressos, ou allongés de qualité, sans trop dépenser (surtout considérant que certaines machines à pods sont encore plus chères que celle-ci). Évidemment il est possible de "modder" la machine en changeant le portafilter, mais honnêtement, étant quelqu'un qui prend de 2-5 cafés par jour, je ne vois pas l'intérêt pour le moment puisque le café est très bon! Je recommande!!

Es de buena calidad y para su precio es buena

The espresso machine exceeded all expectations. It is solid, sleek, easy to use and makes the most amazing espresso. The steamer quickly heats up milk for cappuccino or lattes. To start the day with better than any coffee shop flat whites is such a treat!

The Casabrew espresso machine is my new best friend! It works flawlessly. Heats up quickly, brews fairly quietly and makes perfect espresso!
