Amazon Customer: I love the price and the fact that this little espresso/ coffee maker takes up such a small amount of space and makes a good cup of coffee or a couple shots of espresso.I think there should be a warning not to touch the metal part of the steamer while it’s in use because I did and it burned me. Every metal part gets very hot (duh) and you have to wait a while to touch any of it until it cools off. If you’re single, it makes a perfect little cup of coffee or a couple of shots of espresso for more than one person. My only issue is that I wish there was an arrow to show exactly where to line up the handle to get it to line up and lock in. Over time, I’m sure I’ll intuitively know that. I would definitely recommend this product.

Catherine: more for college students I would say as a starter espresso machine as it gets very hot and make loud noises and if you don’t screw the water container lid in properly you could get burnt . It’s a bit of a pain to keep refilling if you want a second cup so I think pods are the way to go but it’s functional

Kathy Olson: It is all I need cause I never use the milk frother.

Hubert M. Nery: A lot of people saying that the pump is only good enough for ________. There is no pump. It works by pressure created by steam. The reservoir only has enough room for a small amount of water. Maybe two cups worth. Enough for about two shots of espresso and just enough to steam your milk for a latte. I’ve only just bought this and haven’t used the frother at all yet. It does work though. What’s important to me is the espresso. That works great. Can’t expect much for under $300. Way under $300. If you want higher quality, expect to spend a whole lot more.

RC: Might not brew the best or hottest coffee, but it’s my go-to for my first cup in the morning. Looks cute and can be taken anywhere easily.

Terry G.: Review is for IMUSA USA GAU-18202 4 Cup Espresso/Cappuccino Maker
I am on the fence on this one. If you are looking for an espresso maker at this price, this isn't it. Realize what it is. Its sort of like a small coffee maker. This uses high pressure steam that goes through the grounds and out comes coffee. That isn't a bad thing. But you will get very little crema, if at all. I have another more expensive espresso maker that works well, but wanted to try this little machine to see if it was good or not. After cleaning it out, washing everything and running several runs with just water and no coffee to get rid of that "just made in China plastic smell" it was ready for coffee. Used the included small coffee pot - lol, and added 4 "shots" of water. Since I already have a more expensive espresso machine, I filled the "portafilter" up to the 4 cup line, and tamped it down just a bit. (Reading other reviews helped with this...note that I just tamped it a bit), and I used Cafe Bustelo espresso grind coffee. Turned on the machine and the coffee barely started coming out. Used a technique from another reviewer and turned the knob to make steam come out of the frother....when you do...

RxTech: Edit to add: One small complaint after using it for a couple weeks. The little tab that holds the filter in when you cash out the used beans is too long.
It sits over the grounds so they don't come out in a solid clump. Just another small step to wipe it off when I wipe the top of the filter off before attaching back on the machine. Still didn't stop me from buying a second one for backup when I destroy this one from overuse. I make 4 to 5 cups a day now.

Also, some reviews complain about the lack of crema. True with my first few brews until I adjusted my bean grind. It's not the machine... It's their beans. Try a finer setting on the grinder and you'll get the crema.

Original review: Can't comment on the frother. Don't use it, don't need it. My drink is an Americano. First I brew plain water while getting My shots and cup ready. Not only do I have my hot water ready to add to the shots, I'm sure the machine is clean before brewing the coffee. As soon as the water is brewed, I take the lid off and add the water for My shots. While that's heating up, I add some hot water to My cup to melt the sugar then add the beans to the machine and let the shots brew. I always...
