Very easy to use, coffee does not disappoint, easy to clean. Appears to be a very good product will buy this make again. My wife and I have purchased this make previously, one product we had for 13 years.Will State ounce again, a very good product which has brought a lot of satisfaction.

I've owned this coffee machine for 2 years and would easily rate it 5 stars. The machines performed faultlessly every day (for 2 years) plus the quality of milk and coffee is excellent.

The hardest part of owning this is the setup of the coffee grind, get that right and your ready to go.

The machines easy to clean and contains a grinder saving valuable bench space.

5 out of 5 from me.

Wife loves the taste and the compact look of the machine. I Wish this one could last longer than those that lived in bad reviews .I hope this will have long lasting life. Some other features are havent been used since im new to this. Grind function has not been tested yet.

For the price you pay, it's worth it!
Needs a few tries before you get the coffee right.
Easy to clean
Great for frothing (was on a similar machine from Sunbeam previously which was terrible!)
Simple instructions (train the kid!)
Compact for small kitchens and a single grouphead
Will defo stick to Breville in the future

Graet machine, great coffee. I had to give it away as I moved and it would no longert fit in my small kitchen. Makes better coffee than Nespresso and no problems with it ever. Easy to clean. Coffee tastes better than any coffee shop! Still going after 5 years. Highly recommended and quite compact. The more bells and wistles the more complicated. Saeco basic machines are also excellent.

Although i love this the Breville Duo-Temp Pro machine, but I am very disappointed about my espresso temperature, it's not hot at all, it's not true that the espresso temperature will be around 200F as it's written in the breville packaging, I am really disappointed about this specific point. Breville customer service, could you please explain me why you have written that the espresso will be at 93 CELSIUS.

This is our second Breville coffee machine and we are more than happy with it. It couldnt be easier to use and clean and we use it everyday. We have a much fancier unit at my workplace and the fact is it doesnt get used as much due to having too many steps to make coffee and then clean machine. We are very pleased with this machine and would highly recommend it.

The instructions were handy and the machine is excellent. It's extremely easy to clean and even if you are mediocre at making coffee, you will definitely be able to making really great coffee with this machine. If you drink coffee, you need this machine in your life. Can't live without it

Love this machine! Have no trouble with getting fantastic brews with plenty of crema. I also love the auto shut down - it only takes minimal time to restart. With my old, cheaper, (other brand) machine, it would often remain on all day as I forgot about it! To people with negative reviews I would suggest investing in quality beans, grind as you use and read the instructions.

The Steam wand takes forever to heat up and very difficult to clean.
It can't handle pressure at all when making a shot. It builds up then spits steam out around the handle shooting coffee grounds into your cup. Tastes terrible even with freshly ground beans. Would definitely not recommend!

Came down in the end, to Delonghi v Breville.
The positive reviews for Breville were more consistent across their range.
This model is simple to use with little gadgetry to go wrong and gives you complete control over your coffee making because it doesn't have all the bells and whistles which you dont need anyway. The price is also right....you dont need to spend more. It can take a full sized mug which some other brands cant fit.
I'm a latte/cappucino type and the frothing works well.
Choose good quality beans (try some different brands to find one you like or combine a couple and make your own blend) and grind each cup fresh and you cant go wrong.
Tastes like a good barista made coffee every time.

Using the single wall filter, not sure why so many posters had problems getting crema. I get a good amount too to my surprise. I always use freshly roasted beans and grind them fresh. Grinder to machine and start immediately. Let it run till just before it start to blonde. I don't use timer or weight my shots. I follow the color of the flow itself.

I own a coffee shop and have wanted a quality home espresso machine for years. I am extremely happy with my cappuccino. Easy to use and makes delicious espresso! Of course I grind my fresh roasted coffee at work, so it's an even fibe grind. I'd definitely recommend this machine. Better price than the small commercial ones I was looking into.

Just bought this yesterday after my beloved Krups machine died and I'm so disappointed with it, so far I have made about 10 cups of coffee using different baskets, different tampering etc etc and still no Crema, coffee tastes burnt and bitter and leaves a horrible taste in my mouth for hours :-( Not happy!!
