This was my first Espresso machine and holds a very fond place in my heart.It is a fairly compact little unit, measuring 8x10x11 inches and weighing in at around 9 pounds, but still allowing enough room to be able to hold enough water for about 10 shots, this little guy punches well above his weight.
This machine takes your ground espresso or custom made pods, but I honestly never tried it with the pods. I didn't need to. This baby produces a beautiful smooth coffee quickly. Seriously quickly. As in it heats up and is ready to go in under a minute.
If you are an Americano or Long Black drinker like myself you will adore the crema that this machine produces. It is quite easily on par with what a cafe or coffee shop can or should produce.
The only drawbacks revolve around the units compact nature. The milk frothing spout is a little too low to the bench for normal cups. You also will need espresso cups as normal mugs wont fit under the spout.
All in all this is a fantastic unit for the price that is paid for it. I had mine for quite a few years, and I am certain that with a little more care taken it would have lasted even longer.
