I miss mine. It broke down after 6 or 7 faithful years. I updated to the Barista Pro, but I miss the more straightforward utility of the express. The pressure gauge is a nice feature to help dial in shots.

Would you say that $600 is a good price for this one? And how much would it have cost to repair yours? //@anonymous: I miss mine. It broke down after 6 or 7 faithful years.

I just got this for Xmas and it’s outstanding. I had a $70 off-brand with high Amazon ratings but couldn’t produce crema. This one is the business.

It will last a long time if you keep the steam wand clean. I let mine get gunked up and it eventually blew out the pump. Fixing it was going to cost like $300, so I just bought another one and it's been doing great.

I got one back in 2014 and it is broken after about 3000 cups. Pros said it was about the right life span. This is perfect model to do entry level latte art.

machines like this typically lasts 8-10 years. not worth it in my opinion. if you get a real all or semi mechanical machine, it can last some 30-50 years.

Do people buy espresso machines for making espresso art and not because they want to drink espresso? We are at a strange moment in history. //@Anonymous: I got one back in 2014 and it is broken after about 3000 cups. Pros said it was about the right life span.

This is a great price. I bought the equivalent version back in 2017 and it is still going strong. Daily usage twice a day. I don't always use the steamer but it works good enough. You can't beat this price in 2025.

there are good reasons why japanese BIFL brands like zojirushi don't make espresso machines. they're never meant to last forever. many can be serviced and repaired. but there are just too many parts that are prone to break/wear out. //@Anonymous: We want our espresso machines to last longer than our marriages, LOL //@Anonymous: machines like this typically lasts 8-10 years. not worth it in my opinion. if you get a real all or semi mechanical machine, it can last some 30-50 years.
