I do love this espresso maker. The water is very hot, but takes a bit to heat up. The important note is to keep the cup under the espresso outlet while frothing the milk. It drips. There is a drip tray but it will fill quickly. The quality of the maker is very good and the coffee is great! The messy part is what I don't like.

QuickTake:

Pros: Well made, high quality. No cheap plastic parts.
Cons: Hard to see water level through display. Can be messy.

This machine is pretty bad. It leaks and when you try to froth the wand does not move it is really inconvenient. They are in Australia but have a toll free # in U.S. but all you get is a recording. No help at all. This was not a cheap maker either.

Pros: Looks nice
Cons: Leaks, Poor customer service, Frother does not move

If you push this machine too hard, it fails dismally, leaking in numerous places. I had to replace the machine 3 times in 18 months. Breville customer service is poor to non-existent. If you are content with second best, this machine is for you. Also

Pros: Looks neat, cheap price.
