This machine spits out too much water when it steams the milk, watering down the steamed milk and once you make a double shot of expresso the moter is not strong enough to make a second double shot, so you have to do single shots to make an extra latte. I will give it to my college daugter becasue she only has to make one latte per morning and I will find another machine that can make more than one latte per session.
