We first received our Breville Creatista Plus as a gift back in 2017, and after years of daily use it’s been so reliable and enjoyable that we recently purchased another one without hesitation.

Love the red color and that it's made in Italy. Extremely good value for what you pay especially when you compare to similarly priced machines from Nespresso where quality has definitely gone a bit downhill for the basic machines.
