Calphalon PrecisionHeat Espresso Machine: Stainless Steel, 15 Bars Pressure, 1300W, 4 Cup Capacity, Auto Shut-Off

My family has had this espresso machine for years, and it works as well as ever. None of us are barista level coffee makers so it is perfect. Great for beginners.

My mum has used this espresso machine every single day for almost 2 years. It has yet to disappoint! Has a great performance and a high value for a great machine, it is very easy to use and makes great espresso. After this years my mum decided to upgrade to one with a grinder.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned my machine since 2018, it was a gift and I absolutely love my machine! It’s been in three military moves with me and still holding up! Way back in the day I used to be a barista and I wanted something compact that could do the job. This machine is perfect! Makes great espresso and froths just in case I get fancy and want to do lattes. I need to order another double shot insert though cause mine went missing and I’ve been doing single shots twice .

Been using mine for several years now and been VERY happy. Upgraded from a very basic machine. Appreciate the Calphalon's auto shutoff and ability to adjust the default of how much water is disbursed for single and double espresso (separately). Would definitely buy again

I’ve been using the Ninja Specialty Coffee Maker daily and it’s a total game changer! Whether I’m brewing a classic hot coffee or an iced specialty drink, it always comes out rich and flavorful. I love the multiple brew sizes and the built-in frother — makes homemade lattes so easy! It looks sleek on my counter, operates quietly, and is easy to clean. Perfect for anyone who wants café-style drinks at home.

Absolutely love this coffee machine! The design is sleek and modern — it looks great on my kitchen counter. The performance is impressive: it brews delicious coffee quickly and quietly. I’m also happy with its durability — it’s been working flawlessly for months. Plus, the maintenance is super easy. Highly recommend!

The first thing you notice is how solid the design is. It is quiet when frothing the milk and the outcome was perfect steamed milk. For someone that is fairly new to espresso machines, this one is very easy to operate. The temperature control is a big plus providing you with a consistent espresso coffee Would recommend to anyone, especially if this machine is your first one, super easy to operate.

I got my granddaughter the espresso machine with steam wand, stainless coffee maker, and she is absolutely loving it! It is a great value and the maintenance is so easy!

The Calphalon Temp iQ Espresso Machine with Steam Wand (Stainless) has been a delightful addition to my kitchen. Its sleek design and compact size fit perfectly on my counter, and the machine is user-friendly, making it easy to brew espresso at home. The steam wand creates creamy froth, ideal for lattes and cappuccinos. While some users have noted that the espresso shots may lack the depth found in café-quality brews, many appreciate its performance and value for home use

It lasted only 3 months. I am Italian, I love a good espresso. This machine was the best until it just stopped working.

Christmas present 2022, recently the coffee baskets plugged up and I blew the main gasket in the head. Ordered a new gasket, installed it, but still no coffee. Tried to order new baskets but there is none that fit and Calphalon does not offer replacement parts. My advice, buy a quality espresso machine from a reputable dealer and skip the junk!!

Great product but… I bought three of these. One for my older daughter and my eldest son as gifts. When my older daughter moves out, I replaced it with another machine exactly the same for my younger daughter. It’s only been about a year since that occurred and now it makes terrible sounds and doesn’t get “ready”. Not sure what’s going on. We’ve loved this machine but it’s a bummer when it only lasts a year. Thought we’d get more than that out of it. Would love for some troubleshooting advice.

Purchased this machine in the early days of COVID when I started working from home and my old espresso machine just wasn't cutting it anymore. I have used a couple kinds of Breville and DeLonghi machines...and this Calphalon is my favorite. I have upgraded to a non-pressurized portafilter, use a distributor instead of a tamper, and use a screen on top of the grounds; and would say the espressos and cappucino's I'm producing is often better than what I buy at most cafes. I roast my own coffee so the beans are always fresh and use a Baratza Encore grinder, which is slow to produce espresso grounds, but I'm patient. The steam wand is impressively powerful. Be ready with your milk as soon as you turn it onto steam, but if the steam gets cranking, just quickly turn the steam off and on to submerge the wand....Don't submerge the steam wand when it's blasting....you'll make a mess. It's easy to make Americanos with the hot water feature. Cleaning this machine is easy...which is one of my complaints with the Brevilles. Love this espresso machine and highly recommend.

We've had this machine for 2.5 years. Simple and straightforward to use, reliable, and a nice compact size. I had a Bréville previously that died before a year was up. Only complaint I have is it takes a little time for steam pressure to build but once it's set foaming is no-nonsense.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] la compre recientemente y hasta el momento cumple con todas mis expectativas. Gran producto!!!.

One year in after doing extensive research before purchase and about 6-8 espressos a day, and the machine still performs as on day one. Every cup of espresso is perfect. Crema: perfect. Temperature: perfect I generally alternate between Illy medium roast and Vermont organic Dos beans with a burr grinder set to the fine espresso setting. This is the absolutely best espresso machine for home I have purchased, and that would include numerous (8?) machines over the last 30 years. Caveats? It’s not for manual users. This is for “load it and forget it”, “but make sure it’s perfect” customers. Only complaint? After one year the drip tray silver surface is all marred and degrading. I’m surprised. The only thing that touches it is a cleaning sponge and of course occas coffee. That’s a bit of a surprising negative. Wish they could be replaced because the rest of the machine looks the same as day one. Everything else is 10 out of 10!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ordered on August 9, 2020. Used every day, we drink a lot of coffee. We wanted to stop spending so much on others, although we still occasionally go out for coffee. The unit is fantastic for beginners from the start, but changing the basket to a bottomless portafilter is a game changer. Also, I would like to have a 3-hole steam wand tip, not this one. The pressure seems to be just fine. You can do more upgrades, but I really believe this is in accordance with your skill, not the machine!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Awesome! I drink 2-3 iced coffees a day. My recipe... 6 shots of espresso.. over ice.. 2 tbsp. cream.. 3 pumps liquid sugar. The result.. happiness 😊. I've had the unit for 6 months making all the coffees. No issues. Yes, while it primes (5 seconds?) it's loud. While it makes the coffee (10 seconds?) it's loud.. SO??? It does a great job and makes great coffee. I made a great choice in this machine. Love it!

Good luck if you need service, the third party company that handles it doesn't provide ANY level of service that Calphalon is known for. It's embarrasing. This will be the last Calphalon product we will purchase. Ive had enough of "call here" or "email us" It's nonsense!

I bought this 8 months ago. I use it everyday and was working great until recently. Now it is leaking and I will have to see about getting it fixed or replaced.
