This small unit is perfect for single use brewing! You don't need to spend a ton of money to get a great cup of espresso/cappuccino! Here are some operational tips: fill carafe to 4 cup level with filtered water, pour into machine then fill to the 2 cup mark and pour in. This will allow the brewing process and milk frothing process without a break. When the coffee starts to brew, catch the first few drips in something other than your carafe. These first drops are weak. You will hear and see the difference when the coffee is truly being brewed. Once the brewing process is finished, turn the knob to steam, and have your milk pitcher filled (2/3 c) and ready to allow the frothing process to begin. Once frothing is completed, turn off, and immediately wrap a wet paper towel around the stem to help with easy cleanup. Be careful as it is still HOT! Note: don't pour all of the brewed espresso into your coffee cup as there may be some grounds in the bottom of the carafe. Pour in milk and froth to make your perfect cup of cappuccino! Add a dash of cinnamon on top! ENJOY! Read more

For the money I paid I am pleased. The brother stopped properly right away. It is easy to use other than the frothing device. I have left the espresso machine on multiple times and forgetting about it for a long while and it still works. It is not noisy to me. It is small so it won't take up alot of counter space. I have a towel underneath it in case of heat damaging the counter. Not that it will. Im just being safe. It wipes clean well. Read more

UPDATE: Customer service replied, and after sending pictures and proof of purchase, they sent me a replacement lid. Now I no longer have any problems with the product. Overall, we have enjoyed this espresso machine. I purchased it on sale. Using the product is very simple, and we like the size and enjoy that it makes 4 shots at a time. The frother does amazing work, and we use heavy cream, not milk. It makes the heavy cream frothy and delicious. The only issue I have is the gasket for the water reservoir lid. The first time my husband used it, clouds of steam came from the lid, and it did not brew due to a lack of pressure. This was not my experience using it, so we looked deeper. Apparently, the lid gasket had come off and was improperly seated on the lid. The product guide does not mention this gasket, so we weren't sure exactly how it was supposed to go on. We took a guess and replaced it. It worked fine for some time after that. Then today, the issue occurred again. We took the lid off, and the gasket was in place; it hadn't fallen off. I decided to flip the gasket over and gave it a go. It worked fine after that. If you have issues with the gasket, the image attached with the gasket in the lid is the way I THINK it's supposed to go. I have since emailed Imusa customer service about this issue. I asked for a replacement gasket since there were none listed on the company website, and requested guidance on its proper care and placement on the lid. I will update my review once I hear back from them. Read more
