Espresso Machine, 15Bar Compact

This is my first espresso machine, so this review is having never made an espresso before and I have nothing to compare it to. That being said, I have been churning out absolutely delicious lattes and affogatos for my whole family with it for a couple of weeks and I am hooked. For a low cost entry to the world of espresso this is fantastic and worth a buy. Pros: Price Easy to use Makes really good espresso Looks stylish Has a decently sized water reservoir The "two cup" espresso is just about perfect for lattes Cons: -Milk steamer is quite loud -Doesn't seem to have a way to tell you when the water is out, you'll just not get your espresso -if you overfill the coffee into the puck it's quite hard to fully close the handle -the instruction manual is terrible, tons of grammatical errors - a tall coffee cup doesn't fit - it's a little confusing to use until you realize that blinking lights mean wait until it heats up properly Update: I've now had this for almost a year and it is still fantastic. I make at least one if not two lattes every single day with this machine, so I've probably made at least 400. The only issue I've had is it started leaking at one point, after probably 300 espressos. I thought that would be the end of it, but I "descaled" it by running vinegar through it and that completely fixed it back to normal. This is a really great machine.
