Breville ESP8XL Cafe Roma Stainless Espresso Maker

One thing I hate more than being pestered before I take my first sip of coffee is a machine that produces substandard coffee (tastes just a notch better than instant coffee!). However, this is not the case with Breville Espresso Maker.

My countertop looks like it belongs to a café with this machine mounted on top of it since it has all the bells and whistles like those of coffee bar contraptions. Don't be fooled by the scary-looking contraption, as it's very user-friendly.

The right portion makes the espresso while the left makes the froth. The froth it produces is superb (it is designed with a froth enhancer), not like the sea foam froth you get from other coffee machines. Just be sure to keep the black attachment off to yield a thicker foam.

The resulting coffee lives up to its stylish design.

It also has a cup warming scale. Some coffee machines overlook this detail.

There were some negative feedback regarding clogged filter but so far, I haven't experienced this. The machine performed excellently. You won't be seeing me in any coffee shop as long as I have this gizmo!
