Yes, this machine does pull a decent espresso when set up to do so. while i would review its brew as 4 star, other factors detract from the experience of living with the thing that i cannot give it more than one star.let me first explain that i do not own this machine, my parents do.they have an extra garage and space where i have a car i am restoring kept, and my review is formed of the basis of the times i have used the machines while over there, (over 100 times easily) and what i hear from them about it. i was around here when they got it new.the performance of this thing for something that cost as much as it does, and that it is automatic, is a major let down.the bean hopper always needs to be agitated and prodded while the machine is grinding the beans.(what is the point of the thing being auto if you have to stand at it and help it grind the beans and so on)the drip tray is pretty shallow and fills up easily, its design with shallow depth and long tapered side for the spout makes it very easy to spill when transferring to a sink, especially when the bean ground catch container is full making the tray a tat awkward.(we started using an extra cup to catch the rinse)contacts at the back of the drip tray have to be wiped often to keep the machine from thinking the tray is actually full(again, we started using an extra cup to catch the rinse)demands to be descaled or cleaned very often.(sure this will keep the machine serviced and operating longer, but it seems excessive, and probably is there to ensure the cup guarantee they tout. if THIS process were automatic and done on a timer it would be more convenient)after descaling it takes a lot of running extra rinse cycles to get the taste out of the coffee to a point that you can wrinkle up your nose and down it. even after that it takes about 10 more espressos before it is pretty much back to normal without the acidic descaling taste.the bottom line is, it seems this machines automatic features make more work and trouble than a full manual setup would, even if you are hand grinding your beans super fine with something ancient.i guess i would rather have a full routine every day with a little more work, than this sorta thing.i think that is it, ask any questions you think i could sort.
