First, this was partly my fault. I bought this as a present for my daughter, who was returning home to attend her fifth year at a new university. But I bought it three months before she got here, not realizing that by the time she opened it, the thirty-day return window had already expired. The machine would not pump water or build pressure. It is my fault for not trying beforehand. The attitude I got from GALANZ was so bad. Talk about a company that just didn't care. Thirty days are up. Tell it to someone who cares. They wouldn't even try and help. Maybe we could have fixed it. Nope. Goodbye. Never buy one of their products again.

It shorted the first time I used it. Avoid at all costs

This is a great machine for the price. It takes getting use to. The manual is pretty vague. The important thing to know is that you have to break the machine in for 2-3 weeks. You must clean the water tank with soapy water and run a couple tanks of water to clean the machine thru the espresso maker and then run a couple tanks of water thru the frother nozzle to get rid of the plastic smell and taste. If you do that, you will enjoy this maxhine.

Looks cool, but is useless and cheaply made. Steamer doesn’t work, and the espresso machine itself doesn’t heat up. It just sits there and makes horrible sounds and won’t do anything. I’ll never buy anything from this company again.

Generally speaking, it's fine. It does what you want it to do in a timely enough manner and it does, at the very least, a halfway decent job. The smell of coffee in the morning is nice and it doesn't smoke up and get overwhelmed like some other really affordable other machines.It's easy to use because it's a very standard operating design so it shouldn't give the average coffee-drinker any trouble to figure out.It's also relatively easy to clean; however, the "stainless steel" parts are very prone to collecting finger prints and other non-invasive scuffing. So if you care enough and have a cleaning solution designed for stainless steel, it shouldn't be problem. And also, it's durability (in the context of moving homes and living in a box that got tossed around) is surprisingly good. It didn't crack, shatter, fall apart, etc. It's still very much in one piece and works. That doesn't mean it'll survive a fall off a counter; I didn't test that... Yet.Overall, is this fanciest or most advanced coffee machine I've ever owned or ever will own? No. But if you're sick of having a sad little coffee maker from Walmart that cost $30 because you were on a college kid budget, this is a nice upgrade. And it's cute!!

Very nice looking espresso machine difficult to operate at first but then gets easier once you understand the functionality. Instructions dont help and not clear at all. Steamer is good but nozzle from espresso dispenser leaks while steaming milk. Steaming and espresso dispenser can not be used at the same time. Once you get past that it does make a good cup of coffee. So look at it like it is a retro espresso machine. Very nice and still working great.

It really sucks when you see reviews and you know that they were all operator error. So going into this I want to say that the machine had a learning curve. What I didn’t like though, made me no longer want to figure out how to run the machine properly. I flushed the machine multiple times, but the coffee kept tasting like plastic. The coffee was nowhere near a temperature that you typically expect coffee to be. There’s no way to adjust the temperature either. I liked the convenience of the tank, the tray below, the coffee color was good, frothiness was nice, automatic stop on shots, and I loved the look. However, when using the wand to steam, even though it indicated it was ready, it would shoot out a large amount of water, enough to soak a paper towel. My optimistic thought, maybe that was a fluke but it happened again and again. The dial to turn the steam on was odd. That’s the best way I can explain it, it wasn’t like your typical dial where you could feel it turn and know that it was turning. So I almost wonder if it was broken. The other thing that was unfortunate was it would still have water coming out through the shot while you were trying to steam. That was even with the dial turned to what was supposed to be strictly steam and the lever to turn off the espresso part was off. I really wanted to try to work with this appliance, but the taste of plastic was overbearingly gross. The time it took to do everything was consuming, that I just felt it wasn’t worth tampering with.

Once you get this little beast setup (be gentle and patient, it’s not a $2,000 slayer.), this little espresso machine is my new favorite thing for $100.It seems Galanz did their homework here. They made a plastic machine (who cares, it’s dope), that has higher end hardware inside. It’s clear by the size of the port a filter that this machine is capable of full pressure espresso.The milk frother works beautifully with some patience as well. I’m able to pour latte art just fine. Super dry caps, leave the metal cylinder on, smooth, wet lattes, slide it right off.Brilliant @Galanz. My second product from you (and in this awesome color.). Happy once again. 100%Update: added some photos. :)

Llevo 70 días con ella, dos cafés al día (140) y ya no sirve, enciendes el botón azul para el vapor el cual no sale, pero el agua si por todas partes menos por donde debe, cualquier ranura de arriba, abajo el agua sale y muy caliente, espero que tenga garantía por la fábrica porque amazon solo da 30 días.
