Customers are saying
Customers commend the Breville Essenza Mini Espresso Machine for its milk frother that creates foamy milk, compact size that saves counter space, user-friendly design that makes it easy to operate, and overall compactness. However, some customers express concerns about the relatively high cost of the coffee pods and the noise level of the machine.

Perfect for limited counter space
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love this machine. My counter space is very limited, and this is small enough to slide into a tight space out of the way while still accessible and easy to use. Works perfectly and does exactly what I need it to do. Extremely easy to use, maintain, and clean, and makes great espresso! Highly recommend.

Easy espresso machine for newbies like me!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't think this is as loud as some others say it is; I have an older Keurig...now, THAT'S loud. I was pleasantly surprised how hot it made the espresso. I purchased this one for the space-saving size and it doesn't disappoint. The milk frother that came with mine, the Aeroccino, gets a little hot; there's a small brown spot (similar to burnt milk) left on the bottom when it's finished "frothing."

Nespresso Breville
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wonderful! I love it! It is one of the smallest machines with 2 sizes of coffee but you can be creative and make other options, and the aeroshino works perfectly making a creamy milk using regular, evaporated or oat milk in my case. Also I use it only with instant Nescafe and obtained it like a capuchino

Great Machine
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this machine! I did have to exchange for a different one as there was an issue with the water tank, but no issues with the new one and I use it multiple times a day! Makes great coffee, works well with no issues and it’s so small and compact. Doesn’t take up a lot of space on the counter; huge plus!

Love this espresso maker!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought my daughter this for Christmas. She absolutely loves it! The mini size is perfect for her counter space. She sent us a picture to show us how happy she was with the machine and to show how well the frother works.

Travel Size Nespresso Machine
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There was no packaging other than the original box it comes in, so it arrived crushed and with a hole, but the product is working fine. Purchased on Black Friday for $99- great price. I have a higher end Nespresso machine at home but purchased this specifically for use in my office and on upcoming trips because it’s so small and light- no more crappy hotel coffee.

Best package for Nespresso Startup Buyer.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This package worked out very well for me. I wanted a Nespresso machine that didn’t take up too much counter space. It came with a milk frother and a complete pack of sample capsules. It is very easy to use. Ever since, I’ve been enjoying one cup of Nespresso every morning. I brewed each capsule 2-3 times, added sweet cream and it turned out just right. I cleaned out drip trays daily. And water reservoir every three to four days. I ordered this during Black Friday Special deal so it was a super good deal. I picked it up from Best Buy store for I didn’t want them to ship this little machine. It came in a nice looking box with easy to follow instructions. I’ll give it a perfect 10 for my experience with this purchase.

Best little espresso maker for the money
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A friend brought one with them on our vacation. I fell in love with it instantly, I bought it online and drove 45 mins away to get it the very same day, while still on this vacation!. Sadly I paid full price, but I wanted it to use on the rest of our travels during this vacation. The machine is fast, super efficient and makes an excellent espresso and froths milk better than my larger and heavier Breville machine at home (now 10 years old and still working!). Although you can only make one cup at a time, unlike my Breville, the beverage stays hotter and the frothing device is a hands free technological wonder. While it will not replace our Breville at home - it very well could, we brought it to use when we travel in our Airstream RV. Pros - Small, lightweight but sturdy, efficient, quick and simple to use and clean. Travels well. Makes an excellent, flavorful, cappuccino, espresso, latte or just plain cup of coffee - Every. Single. Time. Recycle of the used pods. Made by Breville. Cons - Only one cup at a time, and we recommend a simple rinse or cleaning of coffee dispenser with a water rinse run through - just a simple press of the button - after each cup, especially if you are using another coffee flavor pod - also, quick rinse and or wipe out of frothing unit as soon as empty - as a risk of milk foam build up and/or cooking/caking on after just about every use if you don't. where you can squezze out enough for two coffee toppings. Really much simpler to do than it all sounds. Also, hard to find these pods at stores, You will need to buy in bulk.

Mini but Mighty!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have never owned a pod/capsule type coffee machine before but I was getting sick of drip coffee and really enjoy espresso with milk so I thought I'd give this a go. For one, the machine itself is REALLY compact and it can fit in anyone's kitchen. For two, how easy it is to use is absolutely amazing! You basically just put a pod in and choose either espressso (small) or lungo (big) and the machine heats up in like 25 secs! With another press of a button the espresso dispenses! That's it! I have had no issues with the machine and I have been using it almost a month and a half now. The quality of espresso it makes can compete with machines 3-4 times the cost. The milk frother is so quiet you can't even hear it while it is turned on. Overall, this is the best bang for your buck you are going to get in the premium coffee world and I highly recommend this machine!

Way better than other pod systems
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is actually my second one . Not because the other broke. I wanted one in the kitchen and one in my offfice . Ya that’s how great I think these are that I’d be willing to spend the cash to get another. I don’t have the time or patience to know how to many espresso shots with ground coffee. I’m a self aware American and I want my coffee quick , and good without having to think. Super simple system , pods are expensive but for me it’s worth it. Beats getting Starbucks or going out for it . Try the frother with heavy whipping cream , game changer . Dumped my Kcup crap after trying this

Nice Espresso machine, easy to use!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I am loving this! Yes the pods are a bit of a pain to get, but I am sure they will become more widely available. I ordered online at Nespresso and they were delivered quickly. They even include a bag so you can return the used pods for recycling. It quick and easy to make your favorite espresso drinks. Has a very small foot print on your counter top. Very easy to use, only two buttons on the whole machine, just pop on a pod and in about 60 seconds you have your hot espresso. I love that it came with a milk frothier as well. I think it was worth the price. They made it easy to use and that was a big selling point.
