CASABREWS CM5418 Espresso Machine 20 Bar, Compact Espresso Maker with Steam Milk Frother, Stainless Steel Coffee Machine with 34oz Removable Water Tank for Cappuccino, Gift for Women or Men, Silver

I’m very impressed with the performance of the Casabrews CM5418. I’ve been using it almost everyday for nearly 2 months and I’m ready to share my thoughts: - I love espresso. The Casabrews CM5418 makes it very affordable to have delicious espresso drinks daily. It’s a great value for the sale price of under $120 that I paid on Amazon. - The machine is very stylish looking and its slim design doesn’t take up a lot of counter space. I have the silver one. - It’s a basic machine, lightweight stainless steel, but it’s not flimsy. I do need to hold it steady when inserting the portafilter, but that’s not a big deal. - As a beginner, I was intimidated about learning to operate the machine properly, but the clear instructions with photos make it truly easy and straightforward to get great results. - The Casabrews CM5418 makes hot delicious crema topped espresso! Each and every time! Not bad for my novice tastebuds. - The steam wand is also easy to froth hot milk for lattes. - There’s no built in grinder - but I already have a separate grinder and Amazon sells my favorite Italian espresso grind coffee. - I’m also experimenting with using the machine’s hot water and steam wand to make Matcha lattes and chocolate drinks. I highly recommend the Casabrews CM5418 for people who love quality espresso and have a limited budget.

I’ve been eyeing this machine for a while and I should have gotten it sooner. Top quality espresso with 1/4 of the price from leading brands. It has really good pressure, the espresso brew is very good, the milk steamer works great and the overall use is very simple. They recommend running an empty circle before brewing but I find it not necessary. It’s a sturdy machine and durable. Great quality for the price. I would 100% recommend if you love fixing nice coffee but don’t have the money or just don’t want to pay a large amount for a coffee machine. Water tank is a little small but I would say it can brew like 8-10 times before it runs out of water.

We've owned a couple Espresso machines over the years. But after the last one took a dive, we never looked back. That was 10-12 years ago. This year I decided to poke around and after reading the reviews and watching all the videos, I decided to scoop one of these up for my wife for X-Mas. Well about a week ago she comes up stairs to tell me the coffee maker just took a dive. I thought about it, I had this sitting here so I wrapped it up, took it downstairs and put it under the tree, went and got her and said Santa stopped by with an early present. She opened it and couldn't believe it. The next morning I got up, went down, got the machine out and we haven't stopped raving about this since. She's worked in a few places with 10K machines and what an espresso should be and this little machine delivers on every level. We LOVE the footprint on the counter, it's about 2 of our little one cup coffee maker so it's small design suits our limited counter space. Simple to use, well built, easy to clean. I made a coffee the other day for when I hit the road for work, it's just not the same, lol. We've both been very impressed with this little gem. And we make 3-4 a day each so it's got plenty of use here in the last week alone. Would highly recommend.

I bought this machine around 3 months ago. I wanted to get into making espresso but didn't want to invest in a machine that cost me over $1,000. This machine came at a reasonable price and many coffee experts seemed to love it, so I made the purchase. The machine has a good build and it doesn't take up too much space on the kitchen counter. It's fairly straight-forward to use and makes really good espresso. The steam wand is a bit loud and takes a while to heat up, but for the price, it does its job remarkably well. I noticed the machine doesn't let you pull another shot right after you've steamed milk, so be aware of that when making more than one cup. The maker also has helpful videos on YouTube if you need to troubleshoot any problems. Overall, it's a fantastic machine for beginners as it's easy to use and makes great espresso.

Amazing little machine! I ordered after my 2018 espresso machine stopped working. I was hesitant and thought I should have ordered the 3 second instant heat in this brand, especially after unboxing and reading the multiple tags and stickers on the machine telling me to preheat (pre brew) a 2 cup to ensure the espresso is heated. The pre brew with water was well my pinky is still aching so not necessary! Easy set up, clear instructions. Comes with a small and large portafilter (stainless steel) and a plastic tamper. The large portafilter produces a 2 cup espresso and tastes much better than my previous machine. If you are going to use this every once in a while no need to buy a metal tamper, but daily use will necessitate steel tamper. Water reservoir holds quite a lot, no leaking when poured correctly (I used a older model coffee cup holder shown). Machine is loud, I have used for 6 cycles. It heats up quickly (within 3 seconds) but it makes noise during the percolating phase. Directions state this will lessen in time. Steam feature works as expected which is wonderful. My suggestion for all readers is to use distilled water to prevent buildup and to also produce a smooth espresso every time. My previous machine lasted 7 years, the connection internally wore out not the heating element. Excellent purchase.

J'ai longtemps hésité à commander cette machine à espresso, cherchant à avoir un bon café de qualité sans trop y mettre d'argent. J'ai finalement passée ma commande et reçu la machine le lendemain. Je pensais sérieusement que j'allais devoir faire des essais-erreurs avant de réussir à avoir un bon espresso. J'ai préchauffé la machine comme recommandé par la marque, en faisant couler un 2 tasses, sans y mettre d'espresso, avant de faire une vraie tasse. Hé bien, mon tout premier espresso était vraiment excellent. J'ai choisi un sac de café Lavazza "crema e gusto" moulu finement que j'ai trouvé au supermarché, j'ai mis 11-13g dans mon portafilter, et dès ma première gorgée j'ai été grandement surprise. Aucun arrière-goût, aucune amertume. Un café très doux, mais fort en même temps. Points importants à noter: - Le mousseur à lait prend parfois un peu de temps à être bien chaud et je n'ai pas réussi à faire mousser mon lait au complet, mais ce n'était pas ma priorité. - Le mousseur est aussi très bruyant, au point de faire siler mes oreilles. - J'utilise l'eau chaude du mousseur à lait (sans mettre l'option steam) pour allonger mon espresso, mais parfois l'eau n'est pas aussi chaude que j'aimerais qu'elle le soit. Je suis très contente de mon achat, et après une semaine à me faire des café régulièrement je n'ai aucun problème majeur avec la machine. Je recommanderais clairement cette machine pour ceux qui souhaitent se faire des espressos, ou allongés de qualité, sans trop dépenser (surtout considérant que certaines machines à pods sont encore plus chères que celle-ci). Évidemment il est possible de "modder" la machine en changeant le portafilter, mais honnêtement, étant quelqu'un qui prend de 2-5 cafés par jour, je ne vois pas l'intérêt pour le moment puisque le café est très bon! Je recommande!!

Es una excelente compra para empezar a preparar espressos reales. Solamente recomiendo comprar por separado un portafiltro sin fondo, ya que el que viene es presurizado y si te gusta explorar diferentes cafés con ese no es la mejor alternativa.

Only have had it a couple weeks, but it makes a great tasting coffee, its pretty easy to use, milk frother works really well, better then most other home espresso machines i have used. I really like the look of it too. Looks really expensive. Its also slim, so it doesn't take up much counter space. Only drawback, is i have to hold the top of the machine, to insert and remove the group head because of the narrow footprint.

Es de buena calidad y para su precio es buena

Excellente petite machine à expresso, fait du bon café avec mousse. Je l'ai depuis août 2024 et c'est l'un de mes meilleurs achats! Elle continue de fonctionner comme un charme. Facile d'utilisation et d'entretien.
