We are both incredibly impressed with it’s performance. I don’t have a ton of coffee making experience but after watching the videos I was able to make amazing caffe Mochas(to our standard). In searching for the right espresso maker I wanted something compact, for our small kitchen, as well as toxin free- no plastic parts in contact with the boiling water and coffee. The bellman fit that bill exactly and I could not be happier with it.

I have very little experience making espresso but after watching their videos it was easy to get something that tasted good. My favorite feature is the adjustable basket sizes and water line marks. This makes it super easy to get good results without having to measure. I also appreciate that they offer replacement parts. This is certainly not your typical mass produced cheap product it is something that is going to last me a lifetime. Worth the money.

I purchased the CX25P for my daughter who is an expresso addict. She and her husband love the machine and even take it camping. A breeze to use and the 9 cup availability is great for sitting around the camp fire with friends.
