Basically
all of the negative reviews they did not read the instructions well
enough. This thing kicks ass for a 15 bar espresso/cappuccino machine
for under (...). Perfect crema, nice steam, cleans easily. Sexy
stainless. Of course it doesn't have auto on-off... IT IS AN ESPRESSO
MACHINE! The timing is different every time as the water pumps through,
and how will it know if you are making a short, a double or if you want
to turn it off early? If you are too lazy to push a single button to
start and stop the pump, get a "Mr. Coffee" and quit whining that your
appliance doesn't tie your shoes for you... The steam nozzle only leaks
if you don't close it. If you don't put the lever back to the closed
position all the way, yes, then water sprays out. When it is not in
steam mode and the valve is open it sprays water, thats what it is
supposed to do (for tea, etc.). It is not that complicated a machine,
but common sense is uncommon to most people. It heats up fast, makes a
delicious cup of cappuccino or espresso and cleans up easily. The
warming rack on the top is designed well also. It makes me happy to turn
this thing on in the morning. It prefers finely ground espresso, not
espresso ground for drip machines or stovetops. If you are a "pod"
person, you should be ashamed and really don't need this machine. This
machine is for brewing a real cup with fresh grounds.

If you can work simple machinery and like espresso/cappuccino from freshly ground beans, get this machine and enjoy.
If you are a bit lazy and prefer everything to be automatic and are the type to use "pods", do not get this machine.
