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.

Best in every way espresso machine , super fast delivery by seller , and hopefully it will be good after sales support by the seller, if you’re looking for espresso machine by this from official brand distributors (Latteholic)

Easy to use, value for money

Easy to set up and use. demo video was very clear

Great machine, came in a perfectly working and well condition, the support was great too fixed all my issues

Updated Feedback (28-Dec-23):Updating my rating since they rushed a technician from another city. He worked tirelessly until it was fixed. Appreciate the urgency and the extra mile (pun intended) the seller went to help. I am happy with how they supported and resolved the problem.Turns out the machine didn't need a step-down converter since it needed 250V input and India supports it. It only needed a pin converter for an Australian power plug. I went by a review, ordered a step down and ran the machine alongwith it, which is what was giving machine half the power to operate and hence it didn't pump any water. So please check the details of inputs required for the model you order. Fun fact: The input requirements are also embossed on the base of power plug.-----------------------------------------------------------------Old Feedback (26-Dec-23):Having removed all tags and packaging, followed all startup instructions with a step-down converter (for usage in India). After power-on we tried to run water through head, wand and steamer. None of them would dispense water. and there is no customer support available in India.

You have to buy a step down converter for this to use in India
