I got it from Costco at $1300 few months ago.
Good machine but did not work for me.
First, the color. Did not do well with my wife.
It is narrow but long. Sticking out from under upper cabinets.
But I did like the clean design.
Constant cleaning is automatic.using a lot of water for small tank. For some it is good but I did not like it. Especially when coming back for more coffee between meetings right on time for rince and shutdown process.
The most annoying was using occasional ground coffee. Many times machine forgets about it and starts grinding from the hopper instead of using preground decaf.
Had some piles of ground coffee in the tray too.

The only negative of the Jura is that it's only available in white...

But my question is just around around the espresso. Is the espresso from this machine far superior in taste than cheap machines like DeLonghi or Gaggia Classic pro ?
i actually happen to have the DeLonghi, Breville 870, QM Vetrano 2B Evo (my end game machine). and since i travel all the time, i am no stranger to super automatic machines like Jura and many others.
none of the super automatic does the proper espresso in the traditional means. what i meant by this is that i don't know any super automatic machine does 9 ~ 10 bar pressure. they do okay when milk is added, and you cannot beat the convenience.
but if you actually drink raw espresso and want to taste the sweetness of a perfect pull... you pretty much needs a full manual machine. different beans, age of beans all greatly affect the grind size and shot timing, off a bit you will end up too bitter or too sour. there is no way a full auto can do it for you.
and forget about latte arts.

That said, if you're new to espresso, you can probably make due with a much cheaper machine. I have a Breville Barista with a refurb Baratza Sette 270 grinder and can do just about everything. Some of these more fancy machines will do a lot or all of the work in making the drink vs. doing it all manually, but I personally get more out of learning the skills and honestly if I'm going to drop $1k+ on a machine I'd want something that's more restaurant/bar quality that lets me have total control over what I'm doing.
