Make sure your tank is full, and empty out the drip tray. It *still* works perfectly with very infrequent (tablet) cleanings.
The steam wand works very well after a small bit of practice. It takes about 2 min to get the milk steamed for a latte. My husband makes himself homemade hot chocolate using the steam wand to heat and froth the milk.
This unit is a nice small footprint and delivers beautiful expresso. The smart pro has 60 settings so you can use it to get coarse grinds for a french press. It is also much easier to clean and allows you to upgrade to a more advance espresso machine ... Read More

I was so excited, my espresso machine arrived today.
Packaging/appearance
Upon opening the box, i discovered bits of plastic falling out.
