great product, one of the best purchases if you drink coffee
We have had the unit for 8 months now, it’s been through 4 cleaning cycles (2 descaling, 2 normal backflow), so I’ve ‘tested’ out most of the possible functions it has. We like it, a lot. If it dies this year, it is probably a break-even so far based on the number of times we’ve used it vice buying from coffee shops. At $5 a cup, you have to buy at least 120 cups to even do a simple break-even. Of course, using milk/substitute and other items at home adds to this cost. Assume that you have to run 200 cups at home that you otherwise would have bought elsewhere, and you have basically done a break-even. If you drive to get to the coffee shop, and buy other things, then it may save you a lot of money sooner. In my opinion, this unit easily costs less than what we would have done within a year.
The grinder seems to do a great job, and the dials to alter the size and amount, work well. I have had to clean it once since the grinds seemed to be working poorly, on Breville’s recommendation, running rice through the unit, and then cleaning it (removing the screw from the top), helped.

Excellent bean to cup machine!
I’d been eyeing the barista express for quite a while and finally pulled the trigger when it was heavily discounted. I have owned espresso machines before but nothing compares to this one by a large margin. The espresso shot quality is really great (given you’re using relatively fresh beans) and the steam wand is excellent for making latte art once you get used to it. The grinder is also great but more number of settings would have made it even greater.

Great espresso machine with built-in grinder for the money.
I’ve had this almost two years now, so I figured it was time for a proper review.
If you don’t want to read my in depth review but just my quick opinion and are in the market for a semi-automatic espresso maker (with grinder!), you can’t beat this machine for the money it costs (especially here compared to a department store). It comes with a satisfactory grinder (anything better itself will cost you hundreds of dollars on its own), and an easy to use (and learn) espresso maker which makes good espresso, latte’s, etc. (assuming you don’t use garbage beans of course). Its been nearly two years and I’ve yet to have a problem and still works just as good as it did the day I got it.
I’ll start with the cons, because there aren’t many and they are very minor, picky issues.
The grinder: I find the size setting to be slightly misleading. I’d assume you could use the full range of grind sizes, but anything less than a 4 you’ll have trouble pulling a shot with the proper pressure. Over time I’ve found I’ve needed to reduce the grind size more and more, but that could be to poor (lack of) regular cleaning habits because I’m lazy.
