CASABREWS CM5418 Stainless Steel Compact Espresso Machine: 20-Bar, Milk Frother, Volume Control, Pressure Gauge

The best machine, and company! I will always buy from here! I look forward to my coffee from home everyday!

I ordered this coffee machine because of relatives being very pleased and having longevity with theirs. So far I am very happy with the espresso it makes, and the ease of using this machine. No complaints; read tips from other reviewers and the instructions and it's pretty simple to use.

Reasonable machine – good for the price. Almost identical to one bought under a different name - Wirsh - a few years back, for a different location. Only visible difference is the addition of a pressure gage, different control buttons, and slightly different programming. Only odd thing was how the filter basket is held in the handle. This one uses a raised dot on the basket and a slot in the handle. No mention of that in the instructions. Note that this type of machine is not repairable. It is designed and built for inexpensive manufacturing. Like many products these days.

I love my casabrew! Perfect for the individual at home barista! Ive had it a few weeks now and already am getting good at latte art!

This is the first espresso machine I have owned and I don’t think I’ve loved any other appliance more. My husband and I were spending so much on coffee shop visits multiple times a week. I got this as a Father’s Day gift for him and am blown away by 1) how easy it is to use, 2) how fun it is! it’s such a simple ritual we genuinely look forward to, and 3) that it’s super easy to clean, so much easier than a traditional coffee maker or cold press. After having this, I don’t know why the norm in the U.S. is to have a clunky coffee maker for a full pot, taking up space and being difficult to fully clean. This is the best, cleanest, yummiest coffee you can make at home hands down. At least for newbies like us. It’s so fast to make your latte (or whatever you’re making). We have a small kitchen and this takes up barely any counter space, and a huge plus that it’s a cute color and blends in well (we got the beige). Have not had a single issue with this machine. Such a thoughtful and well made design. Thank you Casa Brews for our daily oat milk lavender lattes!!

Good piece of equipment for espressos, compared size and price

Great! Love it! My first espresso machine. I have a decent grinder too and making my first shot was easy. Looks great too!

First time espresso machine owner! I was nervous about using it since I read all the comments about requiring a lot of tools and accessories to get a legit espresso set up. I'm happy to share that after purchasing the CM5418 I can produce high quality espresso without having to pay for one of those super expensive machines. It's super easy to use, clean, and set up.

Purchased this unit to replace a larger fully automatic machine which unfortunately was too big for my counter space. This Casabrew is small ,compact looks great on my counter, but more than that it makes a great tasting espresso ( short , double ) and also cappuccino. Highly recommended.

Great budget espresso machine! Very impressed with the performance of this machine considering the low price. It’s easy to use, easy to learn on, and the pressure gauge is a nice touch to tell you if you prepped your coffee puck correctly.

Amazing machine for me as a beginner. Worked perfectly from the get go with Cafe Bustello grounds!! So excited to keep learning more

I have never made my own expresso and was a little unsure of getting my own machine. My adult daughter loves creating coffee drinks and has worked as a barista so we spent quality time together while she taught me to use it. I caught on quickly; it's not as intimidating as it first seems. I like the ability to make my own drinks because most things taste overly sweet to me and this allows me to add just the amount of flavor and sweetener that I like. I still haven't mastered steaming the oat milk and I can't tap the coffee grounds out (I scrape them out with a plastic knife), but the machine is fun. I think it is worth the price even though I only use it once or twice a week. It doesn't take up much space on the counter which is another bonus for me.

Make very good espresso especially with the lower price than other. Quiet operation. Glad that I made decision to buy it.

It does exactly what it is supposed to do. Very simple and functional. It has nice adjustments to dial in my personal shot and for the family. Color options are great too.

Good expresso machine and a great value for the price,would definitely recommend. You can spend more but u wont get more.

So far, so good! Have been using it for several weeks and love the results. I look forward to my morning mocha. I never wanted to drink coffee after I had my first two cups with breakfast but now I'm tempted to indulge throughout the day. I'll up date this is things go south but loving it so far.

Great little machine. Easy to follow instructions and easy to operate. Makes the best coffee in town; no need to go anywhere else to buy a great cappuccino!

I have been very happy with this machine. It has lasted for a few years without any issues and brews a very tasty espresso..

Amazing budget machine would recommend

The coffee machine works well and I happy with it but the portafilter is not good quality. After using it and washing it a few times, the aluminum went grey and started leaving black residue when I touched it. It became unusable and I had to throw it away. Really disappointing and also, I don’t whats happening now that I used to used the filter for 2 cups and it used to filled completely up my mug and now it’s just filling up the middle of the mug. That’s strange
