The Express Impress Impresses
I recently upgraded from the Breville Barista Express to the Barista Express Impress, and I could not be more pleased with the decision. I am genuinely amazed at the difference the dosing and assisted tamping system makes—not only in consistency, but especially in the taste of the espresso. The improvement has been remarkable. What I thought was already an excellent machine has been taken to an entirely new level. Breville has truly designed an outstanding machine, and I am very impressed with the Express Impress.

Smooth and rich!
It makes a great latte or cappuccino, but the machine is so loud!

The IMPRESS ‘impresses’
Just bought this one to replace my 5 year old barista pro (grinder seized up). The impress fixes the mess left over from tamping in previous workflow. This outweighs any delay in warm up time. The lack of water level sensor is my only criticism but I can live with that. Overall the barista express impress is … impressive!

I love the Breville Express Impress.
Great Expresso maker. A small learning curve with dialing in the right number to get my grind right but after that it’s really easy.

terrible
supposed to brew in 20-30 seconds---takes 50 seconds -- coffee not right. when I change the grind size to make it 20-30 seconds the pressure never gets near the espresso range.

Making good coffee consistently
I enjoy the moment in the morning when I make a cup of coffee with the Barista Express Impress. I like the fine tuning capability offered by the machine and I can make a good coffee that's as good as the ones from my favorite cafes. Just want to highlight 2 things out of many why I like the machine: the indications of the tamping and steaming pressure are very useful for delivering a good espresso and the steaming control can deliver very fine foams. Highly recommend this machine for coffee lovers.

Not impressed
Looks great but not impressed. Tamper is hit or miss and that is the main issue with this machine. Also the auto dose does unfortunitly not work correctly on my machine. I will be returning and purchasing a different one.

Amazing machine
Love it! It’s very easy to use and helps with the grinder steps - hardest part for me. I wish only the steam pressure was a little bit higher for when making two milks at the same time

Extraction time difficult to achieve
It is difficult to get the correct extraction time. I had one machine that was great but the steamer stopped working and I was sent another machine. This one I cannot seem to get dialed in. I have tried and tried to get the 30 second mark for extraction which I got from watching the Breville youtube videos when I received my first machine. That one I had dialed in, this new one not so much.

game changer
absolutely love this espresso machine! the built in tamper takes the guesswork out of the tamping and saves time too. i used to work as a barista and although it is not as powerful as a commercial machine it is amazing quality and makes every morning cup of coffee taste amazing! my only regret is not buying this sooner.

Amazing beginner espresso machine. Clean and easy to use.
Great overall. Grind is consistent and not messy. Pulling great shots of espresso as well as steaming milk.

Clean & No Fuss - 9Bars?
This a well-built machine and after several months of use, it sure delivered and saved us good amount of money. The auto puck system is the main feature, and it actually works. Cleaning is relatively easy and the auto puck definitely makes that journey easier. The main problem is the promised 9-bars. No matter what I do or whatever bean type fresh or few days old, different grinding trials, the machine will either: 1- provide acceptable flow within the lower half of the pressure gauge 2- does not provide anything (the guage still not reaching high levels - this is the case if I grind at fine) 3- Provide large amount of coffee at very low pressure A friend of mine has the manual puck edition. The pressure works like charm without a sweat. I honestly gave up on attempts. I believe there is a safety feature in it that prevents the higher 9-bars pressure. After 2 years of use, I was never able to get it there for the perfect cup. I hope it is only me, as otherwise, this is an excellent machine and our geusts are also happy. It looks good on the counter as well. I hope this helps.

Espresso lovers, this one is a must!!!
I recently purchased the Breville Express Impress and wow am I impressed. The set up is pretty easy, although it did take a little trial and error to get the beans grinded just right. The directions are super simple. The built in tamper is perfect and leaves no mess at all. The espresso is so good! I never thought I'd be able to have coffee shop grade espresso in my own home! The steamer makes the milk frothy and is perfect for lattes! I really love this espresso machine. It is a bit on the expensive side but worth it in my opinion. I would definitely recommend getting this machine!

Love it.
This Barista was given as a gift to a family member. They have expressed how much they love it and it can do so many things. I may get one for myself!

Great espresso, not so great machine
I’ve had my machine about a month and it does make good espresso but my machine, express impress, has leaked water around the base of the machine during operation since the first time I used it. It also leaks water into the storage tray under the machine. I made a claim with Breville and they were good in following up and we even did a video call so they could see what I was experiencing and I was told the leaking is normal operation. I have a hard time believing its normal operation and had I known that I probably would have purchased a different brand.

The machine will purge water once turned on and after each function. This is by design. But please don't hesitate to reach out if future questions or issues arise. We're always happy to help.

Quit grounding coffee beans properly
I bought this back in Jan 2026 and it is overdoing on the coffee grounds and still is as of April 2026. It will keep running and we have adjusted several things and no fix. it was doing it perfectly until one morning it just stopped correctly dosing the coffee beans. very frustrating and a lot of coffee is being wasted. I should have listened to the other review prior to buying...
