Bottom Line: Looks good, Works Great, and it is as Tough as a Tank.

Benedikt Halldorsson (quality: 1.0)	11.03.2005	Rating: 9.4
Bottom Line: After I learned a few espresso-making tricks, my satisfaction level with this machine went from 50% to 100%

Sharky Meyer (quality: 6.0)	03.12.2004	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Great entry level product, with great customer service. If you upgrade from a steam (non-pump) machine, you will be shocked by the improvement.

John Southern (quality: 4.8)	03.01.2004	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Best machine for price/support/warranty though I'd sell it after 2 year waranty is up.

Lee Grocholski (quality: 4.0)	12.08.2006	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Fantastic Fantastic Fantastic!!!

Max Johnson (quality: 7.7)	05.03.2009	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Great machine

Michael Austin (quality: 6.3)	12.04.2006	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: It made over 2,500 drinks during 11 years before it was time to retire. I've never owned anything that worked so well for so long.

Laura Costa (quality: 7.0)	09.26.2007	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Great Machine for an Inexpensive Price . . What a GREAT Combo - and you don't have to SUPERSIZE!!

Loren B (quality: 7.0)	09.27.2007	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: If you can find one, go for it! Make sure you use a non pressurized portafilter and a good grinder with it (or modify your Starbucks Barista Grinder as I have)

Larry Lemmon (quality: 5.0)	02.18.2008	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: I considered this to be an entry machine that I would replace with a more sophisticated - expensive one. After using it for 6 months, I'll use it til it dies.

Dave Jahsman (quality: 8.0)	12.01.2006	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: If you want to get started brewing your own espresso shots and lattes, the Starbucks Barista is an unbeatable value as your first machine.

Don Sucher (quality: 6.6)	01.14.2002	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: This makes good (indeed very good) espresso so easily accessable that the coffee religion may suffer for it. Buyer beware!

Bob (quality: 3.0)	03.19.2000	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: I'd buy it again. On sale.

Harvey Dent	01.01.2010	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: easy to use + consistancy in taste + good quality esspresso - whatelse should one expect from an esspresso machine? machine looks neat&tiny but is very heavy, reliable and cosistant.

Wendy (quality: 4.0)	01.14.2001	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Very nice machine with good results all the time

Michael Oliverio	02.20.2001	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Originally bought for my office, but couldn‘t think of not using it on the weekends.

Andy Singer (quality: 6.0)	01.13.2010	Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: This low-maintainence machine works great out-of-the box and has been serving barrista-made shots daily for 10 years and brewing.

Michael Owen (quality: 3.0)	08.28.2007	Rating: 9.0
Bottom Line: Great espresso machine at an even better price. Customer service is #1.
