Gaggia Cadorna Barista Plus Automatic Espresso Machine

Not a WOW factor

It’s true that it is a well designed machine. Easy to use. I wasn’t impressed with the taste, although perhaps I was not using the right brand of beans. I figure, if I’m to pay a large amount of money on a machine, it should surpass the taste of a Nespresso; which it did not- also, I realized that I am a coffee snob, so in the end I decided to return it and I will be going for a semi-automatic machine instead.

Great!

I've been shopping for an espresso machine for two years. I wanted a Gaggia and decided the Cadorna Barista Plus was what I was looking for. Very pleased with the machine, and I love your YouTube videos!

Makes a good cup of espresso. I am not happy with the plastic that has to be pulled on to get the water reservoir out. It is a hard pull and feels like the plastic will break every time I pull it out of the machine. The plastic makes this expensive machine feel like it’s low quality
