According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert
You get a tamper, knock box, and milk jug right away to get started with making coffee at home.
Thanks to the built-in pressure gauge, you can see how much pressure you use to prepare an espresso, so you can adjust your preparation accordingly.
With the hot water function, you can easily make a cup of tea or heat your cup with it.
You'll have to buy a separate bean grinder before you get started as it isn't included.
With the Solis Barista Perfetta Plus Blue + Starter Set, you can prepare tasty coffee variations right away thanks to the included accessories. You'll receive various necessities such as the milk jug, tamper, knock box, scales, water filter, and microfiber cloths. The only thing missing is a separate bean grinder to grind fresh coffee beans first. With this espresso machine, you can make a cup of coffee to your personal taste. You can adjust the brewing temperature yourself and keep a close eye on the pressure with which the water flows through the coffee. Your espresso will have a soft and even crema with a full aroma. The coffee maker is compact in size and takes up little space. In addition, the machine has a nice color that looks great on your kitchen counter.
Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to prepare a tasty coffee with a piston machine. This is a lot less easy as with a fully automatic espresso machine.5 stars

In use for almost 2 weeks now, the novelty has worn off a bit and an objective opinion is slowly starting to form. First of all, it is a beautiful device. Sleek design of beautifully brushed stainless steel gives it a classy look. Quality of the parts looks and feels solid. Except for the plastic drip tray and plastic handle of the coffee holder. First use as a layman in the field of espresso machines takes some getting used to. Fortunately, the clear manual helps you quickly to your first real espresso. The device gives you a lovely hot cup of coffee within 2 minutes of switching it on. You decide how you want to drink it. From temperature to quantity and from coarsely or finely ground to coffee pads, everything is possible. So fast filter grinding, ground yourself or special pads. The first and the last tested and both give a good cup of coffee. Self-ground not yet tested because a coffee grinder is not yet part of my kitchenware. The milk frother or steam function is a different story. The first time it cost me a carton of milk before I could put a real cappuccino on the table. But now I have mastered the technology and I hear something. Good foam layer and wonderfully warm. Warming up chocolate milk is also great and it also produces a nice creamy foam layer. There are of course also disadvantages. For example, the warming plate on top is something that could be better. It doesn't really warm up. The steam pipe sometimes makes a high-pitched whistle which is very irritating.

The device can be used quickly after switching on and then switches off automatically. That is very nice if you would otherwise forget. But because the device is never on for long, I haven't noticed the warming plate on top for the cups. But filling the cups in advance with hot water also works. The device is much quieter than I was used to, very nice for roommates and neighbors. It's also narrower than I'm used to, which is nice if you don't have a lot of countertops. After installing, which is a number of steps, it is quick to use. Stops automatically after 1 or 2 coffees.

No negatives, why not? First of all, when you buy an espresso machine you have to realize that you cannot provide 10 people with coffee in 5 minutes. In addition, you have to clean the filter after every cup of coffee (or 2 at the same time). For me, this is precisely the joy of making coffee. The design is beautiful, a narrow machine that can easily be placed in your kitchen. The material feels solid and sturdy. It takes some time to start using the device for the first time. I really had to use the manual to get the hang of it, but there's a manual for that and it's clear and concise. The device heats up quickly. This device has filters for beans, ground coffee and pads, so there is something for everyone. I have already tried and tasted everything. Coffee pods are quick and easy, but not my preference. For beans, a grinder is a must, even then you have to grind the beans in the right way, otherwise the coffee will run too fast or too slow, so that your coffee can taste bitter or sour. Personally, this is my preference, because that is really preparing coffee for me. I also used a lot of ground coffee. Tried different strengths and flavors. The dosing spoon and stamer are very handy. Espresso is provided with a nice foam layer. The milk frother is user-friendly and you have to learn that too. Add Youtube and you will learn quickly. The included jug is beautiful and easy to use. In short, for me a nice machine, making coffee takes some time. If you don't want that, you should go for a fully automatic machine. Highly recommended for me, on all fronts.
