YabanoEspresso Machine, 3.5Bar Espresso Coffee Maker, Espresso and Cappuccino Machine with Milk Frother, Espresso Maker with Steamer

During covid we started making coffee at home to socially distance and my husband was missing his starbucks so we ordered this one to try and make it at home.m The 3.5Bar pressure is sufficient for brewing a decent espresso and frothing milk for cappuccinos for the two of us.Pros:Affordable Price: This espresso machine offers great value for the price. It's an excellent option for those who want to enjoy homemade espresso without breaking the bank.Compact Design: The compact size of the machine makes it a great fit for smaller kitchens or limited counter space.Easy to Use: The straightforward controls and simple setup make it perfect for beginners who are new to making espresso at home.Decent Espresso: While it may not provide the same level of quality as high-end machines, the espresso produced is still quite good for the price point.Cons:Limited Pressure: The 3.5Bar pressure is adequate for basic espresso and cappuccino preparation, but don't expect it to deliver the same level of crema and flavor as machines with higher pressure.Plastic Build: The machine is mostly constructed from plastic, which might not be as durable as metal options on the market.Milk Frothing: While the frothing wand works, it takes some practice to achieve the desired milk texture for lattes and cappuccinos. We ended up just getting a little electric milk frother and didn't worry about it.Overall, the Yabano Espresso Machine offers decent performance for its price. It's a solid choice for those who are new to making espresso at home or for anyone on a budget. Just keep in mind its limitations in terms of pressure and build quality.

I hate reviews where people have had an item for 2 weeks and say it is great. I have had this expresso machine since 2021 and I have BEEN ABUSIVE to the poor thing! Yesterday, I left it on for 8 hours, no water inside. It was quite hot and I figured that was it. But this morning, it made another pot of great coffee. Wish it had an auto-turnoff, but for under $50, great coffee, good foaming, very sturdy. I bought another in 2024 , figuring my first one would fail. It is still sitting here on the bench, waiting to play....If I could give 10 stars, I would. Yabano also SELLS PARTS. What a concept.

This is my second Yabano Espresso Machine. The first one lasted about 3 years but then the frother stopped working. I read another review that stated the same thing. I liked it well enough to replace it with the same machine, particularly due to the low price. The prices on most espresso machines is outrageous ($150-$400) so I decided that the Yabano worked well enough for under $50, even if I need to replace it every few years. This machine is easy to use, produces a nice strong cup of espresso with perfectly frothy creamer. I use a the sugar free Sweet Italian Creamer and it froths nicely.

Very happy with this purchase it has kept me awake behind the wheel many a time. God bless coffee.!

The Yabano 3.5 Bar Espresso Machines used to be good. Not anymore.I'd used one for a long time and the plastic screen in the group head had warped. I reached out to Yabano for a replacement with no response.Last November, the group head started leaking steam and water (not related to the screen). I decided to replace it with a new machine.The improvement in the new one was a steel screen for the group head. A definate improvement. However, the new machine started leaking steam and water from the group head, just like the previous one.I went to Amazon for a return. They said I had to use the link to Yabano for warranty support. I followed the link, which took me to the same web page where I had previously requested the replacement screen. I filed a detailed warranty complaint. It has been about two weeks and Yabano has not responded. I filed a complaint with Amazon, also with no response other than a survey about how well they handled my complaint.So, DO NOT BUY YABANO PRODUCTS!

I received a 40 dollar gift card for Amazon and after spending the last week on vet bills for two different dogs I wanted to buy something for myself. Fall is coming and I wanted to be able to make my own lattes at home. I found this expresso maker that was within my budget and I loved the color to fit with the aesthetic of my kitchen. I also love that it’s small and can be stored away easily when not in use. I received it last night and put it to work this morning.It was easy to use and comes with all the tools needed. The scooper with the flat end to push the expresso down. the little pot with the guards on the side for the finished expresso that keeps it from making a mess when making, the little cup to put the expresso in has a clip so when you are dumping out the used expresso it keeps the cup from falling out. The drip tray is easily removable to rinse off if you spill on it like I did. And it has a milk frothing tool that can be folded out or in, I did not use this feature yet but it’s a nice addition. The rubber comes off for easy cleaning. I just poured the water in, added the expresso and turned it on. Was able to make my drink in just a few minutes! For less then 40.00, this machine does beyond what was expected! I will need it for the many restless nights keeping my dogs healthy, and the 12 hour work shifts to pay these vet bills. 🤪
