WACACONanopresso Portable Espresso Maker, Upgrade Version of Minipresso GR, 18 Bar Pressure, Extra Small Travel Coffee Maker, Manually Operated, Compatible with Ground Coffee

Bought this for a cruise where the drinks package was just too expensive. Also bought the nano adaptor so I can use it with nespresso capsules. Got it set up and running in less than 5 minutes! Perfect espresso (we love Caffe Borbonne Capsules) with a rich crema! Brilliant little gadget, easy to carry and best of all, simple to use!

Top notch espresso. Super easy to use with great results.Preheat with flush of boiling water first before you use for espresso.Easy to clean, pod adaptor worth getting too.

Surprisingly makes not bad coffee. I would recommend it for people who likes espresso but they don't have espresso coffee mashine at work. This does the job.

I am actually surprised how well designed and versatile this wonderful piece of engineering is! I also got the barista kit and it is a god send for double espresso. Easy to clean and really fast.My only complain is the nice case would be handy to have it protected on the go. I hoped it would come in a case especially that I ordered already two things from the company but it seems it's not the case. Pun not intended:) Nevertheless, I would be recommending, to coffee crazy friends, this coffee maker, however the lack of the protective case leaves bitter aftertaste (the coffee doesn't)!

I took a chance and spoiled myself with this for being in the great outdoors. Gorgeous coffee shot experience with crema. Can't recommend this highly enough. Nothing good comes cheap.

Well, this is nothing like espresso. It produces acid, lukewarm coffee, despite me following the instructions literally. It is nicely built and a good idea, but, sadly, if you like your espresso or capuccino, this is not going to make anything like what you are used to. A shame.

Bought this this as I travel for work a fair bit, and want to make sure I can enjoy a good coffee in my hotel room when I'm away from home. The build quality is solid, the size is about a bit taller than a can of coke and the full shot you get from it is lovely! The guide tells you to preheat the unit by running one cycle just with hot water, but if you're necking the espresso quickly, don't bother. Drink it while it's got that nice crema on top :)When you first try it, it'll take a bit of time to get it all in the right order and follow the instructions, but after 3-4 uses you'll be pumping out an espresso in no time. I've only had it a week, so can't say how well it'll hold up, but seems like a solid unit. I'll probably pick up the nespresso adaptor just to reduce the inevitable mess of grinds from filling and cleaning, and a hard case might not be a bad shout (although if you pack it in with a few pairs of pants in your suitcase/pack that should be plenty padding). Quality is as good as the espresso machine at home.

I've had three of the cheaper ones (Litchi was one brand) which all worked pretty well, and tended to last 3-5 months of use, which is about 600 shots of espresso (300 coffees for me as I'd always do a double shot with a bit of frothed milk). So about 7-8p a cup which isn't bad. This one was three times the price so we'll see if it lasts three times as long. It's a little easier to use as the plastic, which feels better quality, has better grip. Makes a nice espresso, more consistent than the cheaper ones, maybe because it's higher pressure.
