Cuisinart is one of my go-to brands for kitchenware and appliances, and this Espresso machine well exceeded my expectations. The machine itself is sleek and contemporary-looking, without taking up excessive countertop space. Set up and use is direct and simple. It makes one strong, robust, absolutely heavenly cup of espresso! I would highly recommend this!

Great coffee maker for making espressos. No bells and whistles but if all you want is a quick and super easy cup of espresso this machine is perfect. Makes two different sizes; regular and luongo.

This machine is awesome! Cuisinart did an excellent job with this Espresso machine. It has twelve different brew settings which is great that I can choose my brew! Also, the water reservoir is great. The only thing I didn’t like was the capsule aren’t recyclable but it does eject the capsule into the waste bin, automatic. This machine uses the same capsule as the nespresso machine that in which makes it easy for the ones that have that particular machine. Overall, this Espresso machine looks well built and I know I’ll be using it for a while because of the built and convenience.

I have had a hard time finding the coffee. I am trying. If you tell me where to get them. I want to be part of your team but right now I am not having success in this project. I am going to look for the coffee this weekend, hopefully I can get some. Thank you.

Overall, it’s a great machine…. When the parts work. I was really enjoying how well it brews without a lot of sputtering until after 6 uses, the lever stopped pulling back far enough to get the Espresso Capsule in. It wouldn’t budge. I had to return the machine. I had specifically purchased a Cuisinart, so it was disappointing.

I received my Espresso Defined™ Espresso Machine and let me tell you…I Love It!! It’s so easy to use. You just press the button to choose if you would like a double or not, which of course is a no brainer…double for me please! Add your water and your espresso pod and it’s ready to brew. The water resevoir is very easy to remove and slide back into place. It brews super quickly and makes a delicious espresso. I am so happy with my Espresso Defined™ Espresso Machine and I highly recommend it for espresso fans!

Who would have thought making espresso at home would be so easy and taste like it has been made by a professionally trained barista with many years of experience. This machine does not disappoint, from the ease of unpacking, to quick set up and user friendliness and the end product of delicious espresso this is a must have for all espresso lovers. I have found myself having to set a cut off time for using this machine since I think nothing of making a cup at 10pm and wonder why I didn’t sleep all night. Cuisinart you have done it again, another great quality product at a very reasonable price.

The Cuisinart Espresso Defined Espresso Machine makes a delicious cup of espresso at home! It’s extremely easy to use, and the espresso tastes amazing! It takes virtually seconds to heat up and brew. You can take all of the components apart for easy cleaning. There’s also a compartment that catches and stores the used capsules until you throw them out. I’m so glad that it actually has a cord long enough to reach my outlet. My wife and I love this machine, and we’re looking forward to trying all of the different flavored capsules!

No more Starbucks when I can do this it home now. My husband gets his coffee and I get my Latte. Simple to use and the booklet came with easy to read instructions and had some interesting recipes it. Cleaning isn’t hard and the perfect size doesn’t take up hardly any space. Been bragging about it to my friends.

I have been wanting to diversify my coffee drinks and really wanted to try espresso. I’m admittedly a novice and was looking for a machine that would help me out. The Espresso Defined the perfect machine. It’s compact and was very easy to set up. The lighted menu screen was helpful in allowing me to pre-program some personal settings. I put in a coffee pod and chose the amount I wanted. Within seconds, the brewing was complete. I have a milk frother, so I was able to top off my brew. Lastly, the machine comes with several recipes to try. I cant wait. This is the perfect machine for novices!!

I received this product free to test and review. I LOVE it! It looks super clean and slim so it doesn’t look ugly sitting on your countertops. All the parts work smoothly with no issues. It’s super easy to work and put together. (Well it’s actually already put together…just add your water and espresso capsule!). It works VERY fast too so you don’t have to wait a while for the water or warm up. It’s basically instantly. I used one of the recipes from the book that was sent with it, which was cool too! Would highly recommend this product.

This machine is awesome, it has 12 different brew settings, Just pick your preferred setting add water and espresso capsule and in no time you have a cup of delicious espresso. The capsule even ejects into its own waste bin. Who would of thought that making espresso at home would be so easy.

This machine is of such higher quality than the Nespresso machine of the same design. Many of the parts that require durability are metal, not plastic. The machine locates the water reservoir directly behind the machine in the same shape and dimensions so it is slimmer and takes up little space. It has an illuminated information panel to select how you wish to brew your espresso and what size. The pump has the higher pressure like the larger more professional machines, yet can use the small Nespresso pods and their own brand also. I love well-built things like fine automobiles, beautiful watches and quality appliances and find this beautiful machine completely satisfying. I think you will too.
