Used to be a coffee machine salesman. Don't buy the fully automatic ones, they're crap IMO. They don't do a "real" espresso. These Breville machines are a fair price/quality ratio for home use: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71BvCt6eAFL._AC_UF894,1000_QL80_.jpg

Are the Breville's the fully automatic ones you say to avoid? Or are you saying you recommend them? Thanks.

Breville is what I recommend. It's not fully automatic, you still have to manually fill and use the portafilter. The ones that are "press one button and you're done" i.e. the JURA machines, are what you should avoid. https://id.jura.com/-/media/global/images/home-products/e-line-2020/e8-eb-piano-black-15355/e8_eb_pb_15355_overview.webp?mw=350&hash=A505986508CBEACF81F27E78BFF97446

No problem! No I'm not familiar with this particular brand.
