It's got me hooked...
I have to admit I don't know much about espresso, but this machine has got me hooked.I bought it for my mother after previewing it at Williams and Sonoma.It uses pods, which you have to buy from nespresso.com.They ship next day or second day for at a very reasonable rate.You get 10 pods for 4.90 - each pod is a single serving.They have a selection of 12 varieties.A sample of each of the varieties comes with the machine, so you can find out what you like best.The website is very slick and offers a bevy of accessories, from finely tooled leather pod-cases to sugar bowls.It's very addictive.I gave this to my mother during a little birthday party we were throwing, and everyone became fascinated with the machine - everyone had to make an espresso!Since then, I have been over at my mother's house every day making myself one.I went to caribou today and it just didn't compare.Not that I claim to be an espresso gourmand - yet - but I am pleased, as is my mother.Man, I need one of these for myself.
Astonishing Coffee
My old 15-bar espresso machine wasn't what it used to be. I think it had lost pressure over time, and I was ready for a new machine -- one that was sure to give me a good crema on top of each espresso.

Next best thing to freshly ground beans (or better than beans if you don't like messes!)
We use these pods with a Bodum Granos espresso maker with good results, so I assume they would work with any other machine that accepts ESE pods, as well.We find the flavor at least as good as the Starbucks and Illy pods, if not better.The pods are delivered in 48 individually wrapped packets packed together in a cardboard box, so I feel like they stay fresh longer than loose ground coffee or other pods that are not individually wrapped.

Does not fit Senseo!
I was disappointed to find it does not fit my machine. The pods are very densely packed, I can't say how they would work in another machine but they are hard as a rock, maybe that is normal for the other units. ... Read more

This machine is spectacular
I can't say a lot about this machine that hasn't already been said. The build quality is excellent and the coffee is the best I've ever had, consistently.
Great, but not necessary
This machine is outstanding, however this is just a silver-metalic version of the E8, which is less expensive.They both do anything and everything you would want to do if you're a coffee snob, so unless you're trying to match other shiney silver stuff in your kitchen, save a couple hundred $$$ and get an E8.

Good Espresso, not so good foam.But Wait - there's a solution!
After 7 years or so of using a bulletproof Starbucks Barista which produced great espresso and copious microfoam, I bought this machine for my wife for Christmas (although she swears it was yet another gift to myself).The build quality and ease of use is great.The espresso is very good (but not up to the standards of a well pulled shot off a semi-auto).Nevertheless, the lack of any mess and pushbutton convenience outweighs any complaints about the quality of the shot - don't get me wrong, it pulls a very nice shot.What it doesnt do well is create the beautiful microfoam an experienced user can get using a traditional steam wand. All of these super-autos have that annoying steam-assist wand which is supposed to require no skillto create foam.Unfortunately all it does it create these large crappy bubbles and very little foam.To make matters worse, the side steam holes get clogged very easily and then the result is NO FOAM. I called wholelattelove and Capresso looking for a solution and they each had no clue either (a) how to solve the problem, or (b) why in the world I didnt like the crappy large soap bubble excuse for microfoam.Well for $8 I found a Krups metal steam tip off the net (go to culinaryparts.com for a $1.99 steam tip plus $6 shipping) and screwed it on to the end of the metal wand after having discarded the useless steaming aid sleeve and old plastic tip, and VOILA!-- awesome foam made in half the time I could do the same thing with my old Starbucks Barista.These machines all have a Thermoblock for steaming unlike the traditional boiler on a better semi-auto.Nevertheless it is enough and the foam is first rate as I said.The only other thing to be aware of is that these machines cant use my beloved Peats coffee beans - too oily and they get stuck in the hopper- so I am still searching for a good dark roast which is not too oily.But for now after a month of use, I am happy with the espresso and the foam and delighted to make my morning cap with a minimum of effort.The F7 in particular is a great machine as against the other Juras.It is more programmible than the E* and much simpler to use (and smaller footprint) than the pricier units.I almost bought the F9 but there is just too much to think about on that machine and the bright chrome is a bit too shiny and pretentious.The F7 is the perfect mix of functionality and understated good looks.It is also the newest technology from Jura so it has some small touches that the F9 doesnt have, such as a 120 second steam timer versus the 60 second timer on the F9.

THE BEST!
i've used it for a year now and i cannot buy a cappuccino at starbucks or any other mediocre place now. The espresso in my home is the best you can get outside of Italy. We are even buying a second one for our summer house!!!!

You must buy an excellent grinder
Rancilio Silvia is a great way to get a pro machine at home. But like all pro machines, much depends on its enviroment; with proper equipment and training it can make excellent espresso, but without either it makes drek. Look for at least a Rancilio Rocky grinder, or (even more appropriate) a Mazzer Mini; a good grinder and a little technique makes all the difference.

Rancilio died after 5 Months
this machined worked well. It was quick, until today

Editorial Review

Briel's Cadiz espresso machine is backed by the company's 30-plus years in the coffee business, and it shows--this model's designed to present café-quality espresso and cappuccino to the home user. To get this high quality, the Cadiz has a number of extraordinary features, starting with its Auto Espresso Flow system. This system lets you set the coffee strength according to taste, from a stronger, Italian-style short cup to a larger, less robust brew. The espresso is brewed at the required 190 degrees F, and the machine has 15 bars of pump pressure. And it's speedy, brewing two cups in about 35 seconds. It also makes good cappuccino, because of its included frothing wand. Some other nice features include a patented Cremaker filter, which provides a richer crema on each espresso, and a removable water tank. In shining stainless steel and sturdy black plastic, this machine won't shame any counter. It has 1,260 watts of power and measures 9-3/4 by 11-1/4 by 9-3/4 inches (length by height by depth).

Don't be misled by Briel rep. write-ins
Briel's espresso machines are complete junk. I had the same problems the others reviewers state. After reading the complaints about the service center and how you pay shipping both ways for warranty repairs, I have decided to junk it and count it as a lesson learned.

So far so good
Received machine yesterday from amazon, setup was easy,
5 Stars - for 12 months!Buy Something Else!
I have mixed feelings abut my Briel Cadiz.When I first received it, I became more popular than the local Starbucks.Everyone wanted one of my rich, creamy, foamy cappuchinos.A year and a half later, I wish I hadn't purchased this machine.It still makes excellent expresso shots, particularly since I've mastered all the little details that get it to turn out just right.However, the head of the milk foamer broke off, the button that switches the boiler heater to steam is broken, and of course the warranty is expired.I'm reduced to heating milk in the microwave and making lattes...but they still taste great!

Good Coffee Expensive Repairs
Do not buy this machine for long-term use as it is mechanically unreliable. Owned it for 3.5 years and had to have it repaired at 2.75 years for $190. Broke down a second time at 3.5 years and estimated cost for repairs again $190. It is going in the garbage and I will never buy an fully automatic Gaggia machine again.

Unreliable, but great if it isn't broken
Mine required sending back 3 times during the warrantee period. For this reason, I cannot recommend it. However, when it works it makes great coffee, provides steam quickly, and has a number of great features. The dump box that receives the coffee grounds is very small and is hard to get to for emptying and cleaning.

just beautiful
This is a beautiful machine, that makes perfect coffee.

amazing espresso!
This is a great espresso machine -- better than any I've had before.It's very forgiving (you don't have to be extra-careful about what grind you use -- though burr #3 seems to work best for me), and it makes amazing crema every time because of the pressurized portafilter.(Hint:make sure you attach the portafilter before you turn on the machine, since the Aroma releases hot water before you brew the espresso, so that the grounds will expand.So if you turn it on before you've attached the portafilter, it will start to drip hot water.)The espresso is rich and incredibly flavorful (I use Porto Rico Importing Co.'s Italian espresso), and the pannarello works perfectly for frothing milk.Altogether a really great machine.

Great espresso from a mid-range machine
After conducting research for a few weeks, visiting Amazon, as well as other coffee aficionado sites, I finally purchased the Saeco Aroma espresso maker and have been using it for going on two weeks. Although this machine may not be as glitzy in appearance compared to some machines, it does make a great espresso. Say for instance, if the Francis Francis is the sexy Ferrari of espresso machines, then the Aroma would be a Volvo--boxy (perhaps considered bland in appearance to some) but solid, reliable, and a well-built machine for the price. Once I got the hang of using the pressurized portafilter, which has to be put on tightly to obtain the correct seal/pressure, I was treated to rich, flavorful espresso with lots of crema.
Delicious, Easy Cappuccino!
I did quite a bit of research before buying this machine.The Aroma delivers in the areas that were of most importance to me.It is easy to use, easy to clean and makes a wonderful cappuccino.There's very little warm-up time; it's ready in only a minute or two to begin making espresso with beautiful crema.The steam tube is easy to use and heats the milk while creating a nice thick froth.You can make one or many easily.
