Early days, but this seems like and excellent coffee maker. Well made and looks good. Good on Smeg! Excellent pressure for the espresso function and the milk frother makes a good, fine froth that doesn't just dissolve away. There are options for most of the settings, such as temperature and quantity of water pumped through the coffee. No quite sure about the injunction to use the frother from no more than 60 seconds to avoid overheating, but it seems to do the job well inside this time. I bought this machine to replace a large and expensive Kitchen Aid machine that was too big for my new place. First reactions are that at half the price, and half the space, it's better value all round. Read more

Exactly what I was looking for. Best coffee ever! Read more

This SMEG coffee machine is expensive, but like most things, it is worth paying for quality. Overall, the machine is easy to use, the build quality and the design are excellent and it makes very good coffee. As to downsides, the milk frother is a little fiddly to remove so that it can be cleaned and the instructions are quite complicated and require some careful study. So, I can recommend this machine if you want a coffee machine that doesn't cost a fortune and looks good in the kitchen. I made the decision to buy the SMEG because when I tried to replace my old Krups coffee machine with a like-for-like Krups product, I found the new Krups machine (which was a quarter of the price of the SMEG) to be cheap, nasty and it didn't work.

This is exactly what I wanted: a traditional, no-gimmick, no fancy lights or displays, Italian coffee machine. This ticks all the boxes for me. I love the fact that it's manual and I can tweak my coffee to my liking and it looks so good! I would recommend it for lovers of Italian coffee who are already familiar, or want to learn, how to make espresso the traditional way. There is also a filter for pods but I've never used it. Bought it with the SMEG grinder and the pair look and perform wonderfully. Read more

I like SMEG products design and bought this item as part of set of matching SMEG products. It's user friendly, easy to clean and provides nice and professional cappuccino. Read more

Calling the SMEG ECF01 only an espresso machine is doing it a disservice. Yes you get your single and double shots, but deep dive into the settings using the three-button interface and you’ll discover methods for mixing up cappuccinos, lattes and macchiatos. There are options to adjust the volume, strength and temperature, set things to match your water hardness, and if you fancy a longer drink, the steam wand used for frothing milk (more on that later) doubles as a hot water dispenser to top things up and create an Americano.

Excellent seller.. Quick delivery, Great product

Unfortunately, return it back it's not working

I like the machine so much, I use it many times till now it meet my expectations

Yes it’s more expensive than the rest, but it looks great and is easy to use, and it just lifts the level of quality to any other unit on the market. Can never go wrong with smeg

Love it

Very good just received the cartoon torn condition i was worried about the item inside but item was safe

this machine looks great, its small and fits everywhere and the coffee it makes is really good.of course making good espresso is very tough and I am still learning, but i feel this machine does the job well.my coffee is usually on the bitter side, i use dark Starbucks roasts ground up around the 4-4.5-5 mark.the commands are easy if you read the catalogue slowly.this machine is very good if you are an amateur and you're not looking to go deep into the art of making coffee, if you are a pro you might be frustrated by the fact that u can change the temperature settings, but you only have three options and no real indication to what the temperature is, u might need to buy a thermostat for that.also, u cant tell if you are getting 9 bars of pressure or not, my coffee feel well extracted but i can not compare it with other machines.it is hard to find an open portafilter to fit this machine, the one that comes with is is great and heavy duty and has two different basket sizes but it is a closed portafilter. it works great and the crema it creates is gorgeous, but if you want to see your coffee as it extracts, and whether it creates channeling you need to get an open portafilter. i managed to find one on amazon but sometimes i feel like it is not a perfect fit and maybe some pressure is escaping.all and all it is super fun to have, its a well build and stylish machine, it does make some noise when it extracts and i never really used the steamer as i don't drink milk, but i highly recommend it.

I had to give back this express twive as portafilter was not able to move.

Good quality

I received it damaged and it didnt work at all
