Lavazza Expert Coffee Classy Plus Single Serve ALL-IN-ONE Espresso & Coffee Brewer Machine - LB 400 - (Includes Built-in Milk Vessel/Frother)

We have a Motor Home and when we travel we tried several different methods for making coffee, French press, etc. We are spoiled at home with our automated coffee machine that does milk based fancy drinks that we have become accustomed to. We tried bringing our home coffee machine with us a few times, worked fine but its just a big machine that takes up a lot of room, which we don't have in a small motor home kitchen. Not a lot of options in an automated coffee machine that's compact though, I was actually looking at a Keurig type machine when I stumbled across this little gem. This is basically a Keurig but WAY better. Ease of a Keurig with the fancy options of an automated machine. I was so excited when I found this, its small and compact but also does all the fancy milk based drinks we want when we travel. (I mean when you get old and spoiled you want what you want!) We had already been using Lavazza beans for our home automated machine so we get to use the same coffee we love and now have a compact machine that will do the drinks we want too. Although I am not usually a big "pod" fan for traveling they work so great! No messy coffee grounds to deal with or pack, everything is in a nice neat pod that makes morning coffee fast and clean. Now, taste! OMG this machine makes amazing coffee! So much so that we debate using it at home now as well. The foam froth being from a spinning design steams/whips up the milk and creates a soft and decadent foam that is so creamy and delicious, just like a coffee shop.(our home machine just steams it so its not as smooth of a foam) Coffee brews flavorful and hot and the end result drink is so good! We certainly feel spoiled being in the middle of no where and having the best cup of coffee to sip every morning. It doesn't take up much space, makes excellent coffee, the pods are easy to pack and stay fresh - no griding of beans needed. Cleaning the machine is simple as all the pods drop down into an easy bin you just pull out and dump. The screen is easy to use, it brews fast and coffee comes out piping hot. I got this on a black Friday deal for about $135 and that feels like a steal for what this machine does and the quality of coffee. Absolutely love it and highly recommend.

Love my Lavazza machine, so many options of espresso to make and easy to use.

This is one of the best purchases we have ever made! The design of this coffee machine, which can brew coffee, espresso, cappuccino, macchiato, and lungo, latte, is brilliant—no mess at all! Although we love cappuccinos, our previous machine was difficult to operate, and the frother created a mess. Eventually, it just sat unused on the counter. In contrast, this new machine is incredibly easy to operate, consistently produces perfect cups every time, and is SO EASY TO CLEAN! Surprisingly, I thought I would only use it for the fancy milk-based coffees, but I actually prefer the 8 oz coffee it makes over any other coffee I've had. To me, the milk coffees are a real treat, but my husband has a couple every day and loves them. We did purchase a second glass cup because we use them frequently. Although my husband just drinks his cappuccino out of the glass cup, I prefer to pour it into a mug. It looks just as pretty! We use this product about six times a day and utilize all its features. Every coffee option is delicious, and our guests really enjoy it. We also offer a variety of syrups, cinnamon, and raw sugar for our guests to choose from. Overall, it is fun, tasty, and easy for everyone to use. To use the double shot feature, you must get the LavAzza Gold Selection 2 (50 cents each). There are other options you can try for the single, but we like the LavAzza expert espresso Classico (40 cents each). We buy the pods on Amazon. They are very reasonable. I highly recommend! We have had it now for 3 months and just did our first descale. Super easy directions to follow.

the coffee is very good, the options with dairy (foam) work excellent, and coffee is hot (not super, but as hot as any cup instant brew.) Not trying to sound like a fanboy, but this is a great product and worth the money. Have owned Keurig, Tassimo, and a Nespresso. This Lavazza machine blows them all away. only thing that is a bit of a pain is the cups aren't sold in almost any stores. so don't let your supply run to low before ordering online. Also they coffee is twice the price of cheaper cups. But its also twice as good in my opinion. one other small drawback. it only comes with one cup and lid device to make dairy based drinks. so can't enjoy a cup with someone else unless you buy and additional cup or pour into different cup. And they aren't cheap $70 ish and are almost impossible to get. I ordered one, and two weeks later the seller cancelled order.

I'm now into day two with this espresso maker and can definitely say I am in love with this machine. I have always been a coffee lover, but have veered away many years ago from the big barista's out there due to the price and poor quality (bitter/overbrewed/sitting in tank too long). I can say I researched these machines extensively and didn't want to pay $500. I decided on this machine based on the reviewer's comments on taste & system functionality. The only drawback that I really could see was that for some, the system just stopped working all together on one random day, short of being one year old. I got around this one based on one commenter's suggestion that if you purchase this machine, make sure you get an extended warrantee. To ease my potential future pain, I purchased a 3 year kitchen protection plan since it was Prime day when I made my purchase - Now I can drink this absolutely magnificent tasting coffee for a fraction of the cost, all in the comfort of my home knowing I got 3 years with no worries. Update: I'm now a week into this with an average of 3 cups per day and am still loving it! I really cannot get a grip on some of these negative reviews when I am having such a wonderful experience with this machine and the product it so easily produces. No, I hate K-cup coffee, so if you're thinking I like weak coffee, that's not the answer. I love dark roasted deep, complex coffee with no bitter after-taste which Lavazza delivers on with no manual frother!
