Buyers who want the machine to dose and tamp for them or who prefer weighing shots without extra gear.

Strengths and trade-offs

What owners and reviewers like

  • Responsive touchscreen walks you through each step and saves up to 8 custom drinks
  • Automatic steam wand gives consistent microfoam with adjustable temperature and texture
  • Very short heat-up and good espresso once dialed in

Common complaints

  • Dosing and tamping are still manual, so a scale is useful for dialing in
  • Auto-frothed milk is good but not as refined as a skilled hand on a manual wand
  • Costs roughly $150 more than the Barista Pro for essentially the same espresso hardware

Before you buy: this machine grinds its own beans, so budget for fresh whole-bean coffee rather than a separate grinder.
