This makes an espresso aka high pressure brewing, concentrated shot of coffee. Keurig makes kind of watered down low extraction but easy coffee, basically opposite end. Nespresso is somewhere in the middle and you get "okay" espresso but it's really not an espresso at all.

People complain about the grinders on these but honestly they aren't the worst. Get a WDT and a single dose conversion with bellows (because clumping and retention are fairly problematic here), but the grind quality is acceptable for this price range IMO.
I like to replace devices like this on a semi-regular basis to both reduce the chances of inconvenience due to eventual problems and to give friends a good deal. I picked up a new one from Best Buy yesterday (it's also on sale for $560 there, plus 2% cash back from another site). The pressure indicator is definitely using a different scale than my old one, but after pulling two mediocre shots, I think I'll be back on track with the next one.
One cool thing that's included in the new one: the Dosing Funnel. [breville.com] If you have a 54mm Breville portafilter, I think it's worth the $15 to essentially eliminate spillage when grinding.

Reason being is the BDB absolutely makes a better espresso. You can control your environment better, industry 58 mm standard and if you want to get it down to the sweet science, you can make your lattes more expeditiously.
My wife was a barista for many years and I told her Brevill would was willing to give me a deal on the Express impress... She told me she was willing to use a carafe until the BDB get fixed or replaced.

- Barista Express uses the Thermocoil heating system that takes about 30 seconds to get up to temp. Also requires the system to dump cold water on the heating element to get back down from steaming temp to espresso temp. Results in longer time to make an espresso, or switch between espresso and steam wand.
- Barista Pro has the new ThermoJet heating system which gets up to espresso temp in 3 seconds, and has a much faster transisiton time between espresso and steam wand.
Steam Wand:- Barista Express: 1-hole steam wand
- Barista Pro: 4-hole steam wand - better steam pressure, more even milk heating, faster steaming process.
Grind Steps:- Barista Express has 16 grind steps
- Barista Pro has 30 grind steps - easier to dial in the grind size
Chassis:- Barista Express has the older chassis
- Barista Pro has the newer "better looking" chassis and is available in more colors
TL;DR:Barista Pro is better:

It is not exactly $199 worthy, but those things are expensive, nice looking, and actually useful.

You can also try less oily bean options, sight glass, ritual roaster are pretty good if you wanna try something medium roast.
