Had previous espresso machine experience and was looking for a 58mm dual boiler machine. Was skeptical for the price but willing to try. Not disappointed, and surprised on how good it turned out. Built quality is superb, beautiful design and slim design. Great expresso shots on the first try. And milk steamer worked flawlessly. Great product!

I couldn't be happier with my choice of an espresso machine. It has a professional feel to it. The reasons I bought the machine were because it had a double boiler, an Italian pump, and a gauge to dial in the espresso shots. It seemed compact enough to fit my apartment space and I've found it is really easy to clean also.I wanted the double boiler because I was tired of having to wait for the machine to keep warming up as I was steaming the milk. With this machine there is no waiting, no stopping ... it performs flawlessly from start to finish. I had a problem what I thought was the gauge not working. Tumi's support explained to me that the grind on the coffee was not ground fine enough. After testing I realized my Cuisinart Burr grinder couldn't give me an espresso grind, even on the #1 finest setting, it just couldn't deliver. I tested some Greek coffee in the machine and I could see what the support reps were saying was true. So I bought the Tuni G1 Coffee Grinder and it works absolutely perfectly. The shots I've been getting are smooth and creamy. I keep it on the #4 setting btw.I literally couldn't be happier with this machine. It is impressive and so worth the money. With all its options, I can't see anything else better on the market, especially for the price they are asking for it.I wish I could give this machine 6 stars ...

I received the expresso maker packaged very well. After going through start up procedures. I made a cup of coffee. The coffee was good the machine did a good Job. However one of the reasons I purchased this model was for the pressure gauge. It does not work! The package was not banged up. It works, just doesn’t show if you are in the correct zone which is important to the grind and pressure. The hot water function does not work either. Not sure this was such a good deal for the price! Help Amazon!

Have been looking for a machine for sometime now, and after seeing some reviews I took a chance on this one. Couldn’t be happier.The Tuni E2 came packaged securely and rather beautifully. It comes with everything you need to get started pulling a really nice shot. The E2 has a relatively small footprint so it fits just about anywhere in my kitchen. The suction cup feet are appreciated and help quite a bit as the portafilter can be a little tight to fit and remove, but I still need to keep a good grip on the side of the machine when doing so. The machine itself is light weight with a plastic body and I’m interested to see how it hold up over time, but as of right now I have no complaints. It seems to be a pretty solid build and looks pretty in my kitchen. It does have a nice metal group head for those wondering.That being said the E2 comes with a wonderful portafilter. Hefty, solid, and a firm fitting set of baskets that will go nowhere when knock out the pucks. Though it comes two different basket sizes for single and double shots, I have only used the double. The single holds my paper filters quite well at the tamping station though.The tamper is absolutely gorgeous for something that comes stock with the machine, wood handle with a great feel and decent weight to it. Pleasantly surprised by this.The bean scoop and leveler is the only….eh thing that was supplied stock. But even being kinda light weight plastic and awkward it has become my go to for getting beans out of the little designer bags for weighing out my brew each morning as the handle is quite long enough to make it pretty useful as the bag gets lower.The machine warms up quickly, and I’m impressed with the easy to adjust the temperature settings between the stock setting of medium, low and high heat. The ease and ability to program in a custom brew time is also handy.It only took pulling a few shots to dial this machine in and gain familiarity with what to adjust when rotating out to new beans and different grinds.The steam wand is impressive as is the milk pitcher that comes stock with it. While the pressure here is unadjustable, the output is impressive and after learning to work fast I’ve been creating some really glorious textures in my milk foam.I have been able to register the machine with Tuni but hope I never need to use the warranty. The manual does also come with some parts lists should things need repair. Again I hope this is never needed. Customer support has been in touch since receiving the machine with tips, and assuring my user satisfaction. At the moment I feel confident that that, should a problem arise, I have a good source for reconciling it.All in all this is a five star machine easily worth twice the cost. I’m incredibly happy that I took the chance. If you are looking for an amazing espresso machine at what seems to be a very budget friendly cost this is it.

I love the look and feel of this machine. I love the dual heating system and how after you've pulled your shot, it's ready to steam right away. I love the pressure gauge as this is a feature I did not have on my previous machine. The portafilter is heavy and substantial. I've never had a dual spout, only pressurized and bottomless portafilters, so I'm getting use to having to remove the basket to make sure there's no liquid left which is new and kind of a hassle but not that big a deal. The accessories like the tamper, which is also heavy and substantial, and the milk pitcher are a wonderful addition.Notes of concern:I'm not sure if it's because of the dual heating system but the machine does get hot and overheats if you try to pull a shot right after steaming. You have to either let it cool down or engage the cool down function by double pressing the steam button. Not a HUGE deal, just something to consider.SO, this is my 2nd machine as the first one that came in had an issue where the seal/gasket in the back of the group head became damaged just after a few attempts at pulling espresso. The first time, there was a POP then it would leak out of the back. I didn't do anything outside of standard operations, so I chalked it up to just a faulty piece. I did reach out to the manufacturer but their response took longer than what I was hoping so I returned the unit back to Amazon via a phone call. Unfortunately, the rep wasn't able to process the return as an exchange so he had to refund me and I had to re-order, which was fine.Got the new machine a few days later and am super happy. The espresso I have pulled comes out wonderfully and I look forward to many many more!
