Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank redbandana

Don't get, I bought for $30 to have on my satellite kitchen, I used it once a day and it stopped working within 6 months. It's not a true espresso machine, it's a steam machine, but it does the trick if you drink your espresso with cold milk, which I do often.

If you're looking for a cheap espresso steam machine, get the IMUSA from Target.

I never used it John. I'd imagine it wouldn't make the milk warm enough and would just create a bubbly mess on both machines.

Also a thing of note, when it broke, Best Buy required me to contact the manufacturer. Without the manual, I contacted Bella who were clueless about this machine. I finally spoke to someone who directed me to the right company. I had to upload two rounds of photos, cut the cord, and take an additional photo along with a bunch of Basic personal info. The whole process to get refunded took roughly two months and they did not refund taxes.

see the Imusa review on youtube.. it is not good either. i think we get what we pay for. better to go with somewhere between cheap and expensive
around 100-150$

correction to the product description... it's not 5lbs of pressure, it's 5 bars of pressure (or 5x the atmospheric pressure at sea level).
Please note that good espresso is to be brewed at 9 bars of pressure so this machine is insufficient by design, and will likely result in long pull times and incomplete espresso extraction. the price is attractive, but DON'T DO IT!

People spend $2,000 on an espresso machine and intentionally pull espresso at lower than 9bar, like 6 bar.
But there's definitely 100 reasons not to waste $30 on this. I would just say the *claim* of 5bar pressure is not the reason

A good espresso machine costs hundreds of dollars at a minimum. At the least this could be a novelty, especially with a milk frother included.
