    • Sure, the water tank could be bigger
    • I washed all the parts, ran water through many times, left the water tank to air out, even emailed the company to ask them about it
    • The water tank leaks out the bottom and gets water all over the counter whenever I tried to pull espresso
    • I’m not giving it 5 star because the water tank came broken and I didn’t want to bother returning it for that
    • Water tank is small but not a deal breaker
    • It’s a beautiful machine that makes beautiful espresso, but I was very disappointed that the water tank came out of the box with a broken handle
    • The machine comes with two pressure baskets, portafilter with two nozzles, decently sized water tank, removable drip tray, and an attached tamper (Pic 2)
    • The only complain is the smell that creates in the water tank if I don't clean every 3 months or so.
    • but I was really excited when I found this one with so many cool extras like the steam wand, the easily cleanable drip tray, and the removable water tank.
    • and i expect it to last the way i use it - if not then i can buy another one and still be less than a used barista - it reheats pretty fast for multiple shots too so and the water tank is very EZ to access and fill
    • But before 10 days passes, a new water tank arrived my mail box.
    • Snapping the water tank back properly is kinda critical
    • It’s a minor problem, but a hassle because it makes it impossible to remove the water tank to fill it.
    • Make sure that the water tank is properly seated
    • After I received this espresso machine, (and read over all the care and directions that came with it, as well as watched several YouTube reviews), the handle on the water tank cracked as I pushed it down into the machine for the first time
    • The water tank holds plenty and it is overall a great beginner espresso machine
    • I very much loved it however after 3 months of use the water tank which is plastic has melted and has a hole in it
    • Yes, the water tank was inserted correctly
    • The handle is plastic which is prone to breaking as it is very difficult to lock in the mechanism
    • After spilling my milk trying to get it under the steam spigot, I now strategically place the machine next to the sink which works well to blow out the water as well as to get my cup under.
    • It got noisier and the coffee doesn't taste as good as in the previous machine I had (which broke).
