Great machine and the perfect size!
Bought this as a gift for a friend who loved my Espresso Youch but didn’t want a machine that big in a smaller kitchen. Grinding her own wasn’t an issue and she loved the size and the quality of the product. Highly recommended.

Love it
I have had my Bambino Plus for a couple of weeks and I love it!!!! I have lattes everyday. The Bambino Plus pretty automated get the coffee grounds in place and press the button and the espresso comes out! What could be better and easier. Same with getting the foam pour the milk in the milk jug, put steam wand in the jug and press the steam button and you can choose how much foam you want. I mean this machine is so easy and gives me excellent latte’s everyday. I would highly recommend the Bambino Plus to anyone wanting latte’s everyday.

I now look forward to getting up in the morning just to have my cappuccino
I purchased this appliance six months ago because, while my Gaggia Classic Pro is highly reviewed and considered a great machine, it has a steep learning curve and I never successfully got the results I wanted. The Bambino Plus is a delight to use. Everything is so simple and my wife and I consistently get great Capps and Flat Whites. It did purchase some upgrades. First, I purchased IMS filter baskets of various sizes, only to discover deep ones didn't fit because of the plastic insert in the stock portafilter and to remove the baskets, you had to pry them out with a tool. So I upgraded to a Pesado portafilter. A bit pricey but it holds all my baskets and I can easily remove them with my fingers. I purchased a scale to weigh my beans, already had a good grinder (Baratza Sette 270), a magnetic funnel for the portafilter, bought a distribution tool, a decent tamper, and Breville Knock Box (the grinds go into my garden), I only purchase freshly roasted beans, and store them in one of those cans where you push out the air. I typically use 12 grams and reprogramed the double shot for the volume I want. Making a Capp in the morning takes only minutes, and tastes as good as anything I get at a coffee shop. Remember to wipe your wand after each use. Highly recommend.

Small, compact, great coffee, easy to use.
I LOVE my Bambino Plus! Small and compact, easy to use, and options for heat control and frothiness! The support phone number is great when you have done something wrong too!

Once bitten, twice shy.
Failed spectacularly exactly 3 years after I bought it. In the middle of the night the compressor went on by itself despite the machine being "off" and started spewing water from the steam wand and emptied itself. Had to pull the plug from the wall to stop it, but by then it was already empty and making a racket.

Never too old to have a coffee machine
I received the parcel in excellent condition. I’m enjoying my coffee, though I have to master frothing the milk. Since I’m a senior I think I’m doing pretty good since this is only my second day at trying to be a barista. Val.

I love the Breville Bambino plus and smart program grinder
The machines work flawlessly. From the selection of grinds, to the pre-infusion, to the espresso. I am very satisfied with my purchase and so will you.

Surprised
The coffee tastes great. Quality control has slipped. The filter baskets don't fit easily into the portafilter. I have to use a knife or screwdriver to remove filter basket to clean after use. I've used breville for many years and this never happened before.
