Features

19-Bar High Pressure PumpAuto-Texturing Steam Wand3-Second Heat-Up8 Milk Texture Levels11 Milk Temperature SettingsTFT Display with Drink Menu

Pros

  • Steam wand textures genuine microfoam with 8 texture and 11 temperature settings - real latte art from a pod machine
  • Wand auto-purges after every use, so there is almost no milk cleanup
  • 3-second heat-up means espresso and steamed milk are ready faster than any manual machine
  • OriginalLine capsules give real 19-bar crema and accept cheap third-party pods

Cons

  • At $600 you could buy a Bambino Plus and a grinder for fresher, better-tasting espresso
  • TFT screen and interface feel dated next to the newer Creatista Pro
  • Included 16 oz milk jug is small if you make multiple lattes back to back
  • Shots are still pod espresso - dose and freshness are capped by the capsule
