Breville BES870XL Barista [1].
Hands down the best purchase of 2020. It feels a bit expensive, but I bought it via Amazon paying in installments. I configured it for 1x = espresso, 2x = larger like almost a small americano. My wife & I have been making 4-6 coffees/day for the past months, flawlessly.
Nest on the list: roast my own beans.
Edit: another relevant note, how did I choose it? I've asked 2 Italian+foody+nerd friends independently, nerd as it typically they compare 100 products before choosing. They both had this machine. The machine is French and they both are Italians... that's a lot of trust :)

- mytailorisrich 6y agoThat looks like exactly the Sage model I have. Clearly multiple branding going on, maybe per country (I'm in the UK). Anyway, same situation as you: multiple cups for the wife and I daily since February 2020 without a glitch. I set it for double espresso then I fill up the mug to get an americano. I don't use the quantity setting for the grinder, I do it manually in several small steps.
