We've had several Breville Cafe Roma machines which give 8-10 years of reliable service producing 3-4 lattes a day (somewhere in excess of 10,000 which seems awfully good). This time around, we decided to get the Infuser and so far love it. It took a few practice shots to find the best setting on our burr grinder and choosing the best portafilter before producing the first latte. The machine looks complicated—what with all the buttons, dials and gauges—but it's intuitive and actually very easy to use and I love the longer, adjustable steam wand and the hot water feature for an Americano.

This machine pulls shots like a champ! I didn’t think I would be as impressed as I am, but two years in and it’s still performing consistently day in, day out. Can’t think of a single fault.

Nice neat unit and still working my way through the programmes to find the best coffee experience. Good machine for the price.
