SOWTECH Coffee Machine, 3.5 Bar Espresso Cappuccino Machine with Milk Frother, 1-4 Cup Portable Coffee Maker for Latte, Cappuccino, 800W, Black

This is a very cute little espresso maker that occupies less countertop footprint than many others on the market. This is a positive thing for us to help reduce counter clutter. It is easy to use, easy to wash, and in all does a very good job. Price is great and very recommended.

Perfect for lattes, cappuccinos, or just a strong espresso shot to kickstart the day. Easy to clean, easy to love. Highly recommend for anyone who wants café-quality coffee at home without breaking the bank!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I researched quite a few of the inexpensive Espresso machine. The SOWTECH was the best based on price, quality and ease of use. I wish the frothing process was a quicker but it's makes a great latte!!

It does just what it says. It doesn't take up much counter space and makes espresso for hot or cold blenders, and even foths milk if you want it. Great little work horse at an even greater price.

Small but mighty, this espresso maker makes a surprisingly decent pot of espresso, and its small form factor makes it ideal for those without the counter space for a larger model. Both the operation and cleanup are relatively simple and straightforward as well.Why 4 stars instead of 5: The big downside is that the quantity of coffee that actually makes it into the pot is somewhat unpredictable. If attempting to make a full pot, I usually have to turn the unit off, wait a half minute, and then turn it back on in order to coax it to use the rest of the water in the reservoir. This problem rears its head more than half the time I've used it, and I haven't yet been able to figure out what's causing it.You should also be aware that the unit gets very hot, so even after releasing residual pressure, if you're looking to make a second pot right away, you will likely need to use gloves that offer some thermal protection to unscrew the cap on the reservoir, so if you're making espresso for a large gathering, this unit will present some challenges.Also noteworthy: the first pot I made had a distinct taste of plastic to it, though that has not been a problem since. More than just washing it, I would recommend running it once to clean everything out before making anything you plan on drinking.All that being said, it offers good value for the money, and the small form factor and ease of cleanup make it a good gift for any dormitory bound students in your life who might need to work late.

This espresso machine is perfect, compact and works fantastic . Idn why some comments were saying it exploded. I see that probably happened because they aren't screwing on the top completely tight or they aren't packing the coffee part, correctly. Pack the coffee TOO TIGHT and it will "pop" ....but if you so everytbing correctly you will enjoy a perfect cup of coffee everytime like i have. The machine is PERFECT and makes the coffee nice and steaming hot !!! You can add milk without an issue. Its PERFECTBUY IT. MY REVIEW WASNT PAID ! TYSM ♡♡♡

Love it. So easy and quick. Expresso is awesome

Received as advertised. As someone who never drank coffee and doesn't even know how to make a pot of coffee, I was able to follow the instructions and make myself a delicious espresso!
