This is my third cappuccino maker in 15 years. I had no troubles whatsoever using this for the first time. I got a perfect dose of espresso with a perfect glass of frothed milk. I am happy.
For beginners it helps to remember three things with this machine:
1. READ the directions thoroughly. Timing the coffee and then the milk are paramount. Brew the coffee first, then, when you hear the steamer go off, turn off the coffee and start the milk. Use a narrow and deep container, preferably stainless steel. It helps if that container is chilled beforehand.
2. Use the correct amount of coffee grinds. This will take some experimentation and is subject to personal tastes. Espresso, a strong brew, requires a taste that comes from trying various amounts of grinds. Find the amount that you like and be consistent. A fine grind works best; don't pack the grinds too densely in the filter. Some coffee brands like D'Aquino come with a tamper.
3. The milk frother does two things: it steams the milk and froths it, depending on how deeply into the milk you place the device. Do not let the frother touch the bottom of the container as it needs steam to work properly. I get perfect results placing the rubber nossle an inch into the COLD milk and then rotate the container with the milk around so that the froth builds up. When the steamer stops, the milk is done and the milk should glide slowly into your hot espresso. KEEP THE FROTHER CLEAN!!! Dip it in hot water after every use. A clogged frother will malfunction quickly.
A high-end machine would be made of stainless steel. But for this price, this machine is a great entry-level and the perfect gift for the coffee aficionado.
I use a shot of hazelnut flavoring to top off my morning fix.Torani Syrup, Vanilla, 25.4-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 3)
The one fault of this machine is that it doesn't have an automatic shut-off button. Make sure you turn off the machine after use or else you'll have a kitchen that smells of burned coffee.

I was gifted with the Capresso 303.01 4-Cup Espresso and Cappuccino Machine and had great expectations. It does everything it is supposed to do. Good machine! Alas, I guess I am not much of a coffee connoisseur because I wanted to make 10 cups at a time and not 2 cups, so I sent it back.

I read the reviews and, after purchasing this and using it for about a month, I can agree with what they said about having to get used to using it, practicing, etc. It is easy to clean, works pretty well but there is a definite learning curve involved as far as the foaming/steaming process goes and the ratio of espresso to milk. I do find that it does not heat the milk enough, so I start with nuking it a few seconds in the microwave to take off the chill and then finish the steaming/foaming with the machine. Overall, I like having it as my husband is hooked on lattes and it's nice to have this in the house and not have to always go out for one. One note: you will also need to purchase a burr coffee grinder (according to the instructions these work best) - I bought a Cuisinart model for about $49 - (did not spring for the $99 deluxe model) and it works fine.I would buy this again.
