Mr. Coffee ECM160 Review
Ideal for budget-conscious consumers, the Mr. Coffee steam espresso machine is a competent model available for just $41.24. For a lightweight, compact model, it brews creamy, frothy espressos and cappuccinos with little effort. The included decanter has helpful measurement marks, a non-dripping pour spout, and a handle that stays cool. Capable of brewing four cups and quieter than a pump model, it would work even better with a steaming pitcher and espresso tamper. Still, for such a low price, this Mr. Coffee machine yields satisfying results when you use the best beans and follow the proper steps.

Quiet, smooth operation Compact and lightweight Frothing aid is removable and makes creamy cappuccinos Includes decanter with measurements and insulated handle Comes with measuring spoon, drip tray, cord storage, and cup warmer Weaknesses Must depressurize the machine after multiple shots Needs a better tamper |
