In their words

I have owned this machine for over a year. I am still taken by the great coffee it does. My daughter came in for a visit. She wanted to have a Capochino so I made her one. She wanted one coffee machine for herself. So for her birthday I bought her one as a gift. Now she sends me always cheers as she makes herself one. I have made me a coffee section. I can enjoy with friends. Thank you.

Firstly let me say that I absolutely love my Cafe Barista. It's worked well for 8 years! I got it as a gift from my wife and we've been using it daily with regular cleaning after use. I intially had some issues after 2 years but turned out the porta filter just needed to be soaked in vinegar overnight and that solved the issue. Now I'm having an issue where the pump goes silent after a few seconds
