"Fantastic machine. Great espresso shots and excellent lattes. The frother is good too."
"Makes a great shot. Like the milk temperature control feature. The froth is great. Love the self-cleaning wand, colour is fabulous, design is stylish. Only thing is the tight portafilter. We knew this when purchasing and it is the design of most units this size. . but maybe a different design for that mechanism so you don't have to strong arm the whole machine to remove the filter. One needs good upper strength to use this machine. All in all great product."
"Love it, but it’s very light and doesn’t stay securely in place when inserting the portafilter. I had to come up with a system to keep it pinned."
"Love it. Coffee is delicious, easy enough to use, reliable."
"We haven't had this espresso machine for very long but the coffee has been 100 percent good so far. I thought it was important to read and follow the directions. It is a beautiful looking and compact appliance with attractive accessories."
"I love this machine. It's very user friendly and works wonderfully. I love my morning latte!"
"I had been using a more 'serious' Breville infuser machine for 10 years so was skeptical about 'downgrading' to the entry level Bambino. So far, I'm very pleased with it. I had to get the grind right but am now making good espresso and the automatic frother is great - saves time and makes good foam. I will see if the Bambino stands the test of time. . ."
"Fairly easy to use, makes good coffee."
"My partner and I are loving it! We got the Breville dose grinder to pair with it. Make delicious espresso. The milk frother is fool proof. My only complaint is that the tray that catches water under the machine has to be dumped and cleaned frequently."
"Difficult to transmission from HCS solutions to Shop when you could go straight to a tracking sight through the carrier. Get messages about shipment is ready but it sits. Understand given time of year and CP strike but difficult for me as the customer. But parcel arrived in timeframe suggested and appears to be in good shape."
