Don't buy Breville – Bought the machine about 2 years ago. It worked well for what I used it for. Until the seal broke. I called small appliance repair stores in my area and they said they stopped working on Breville products because they can't get parts. Now the machine is discontinued and so are the parts. Breville costumer service agent just said sorry nothing I can do have a nice day. 400.00 down the drain made a nice espresso discontinued can't get parts
