Cecilware ESP2-220V Venezia II Two Group Espresso Machine 240V

I love this machine! it acts like a high-end machine but for a fraction of the cost. Well worth the money for a small coffee shop. I highly recommend for a new business.

Julie's Cafe is a coffee trailer, a mobile cafe. The Cecilware ESP2-220V is the center of our business. It has two group heads, allowing us to draw four shots at a time. It comes with three portafilters. Two are for two shots, and the last is for a single shot. We have it hard wired and plumbed into our trailer. Set up is fast and easy. During down time, it draws very little power. It is reliable, and easy to use. It takes about ten minutes to heat up in the morning. Because we are in a coffee trailer, we had to use a water pump to maintain pressure in the machine. This is a great machine, and we have been very happy with it.

We have a cafe in a college town in upstate NY. We purchased The esp2 three years ago and it is a real work horse. Dollar for dollar it will match any of the higher end espresso machines and it's an attractive eye catcher. I am totally pleased with this machine.

We've been serving espresso beverages for 12 years and needed a new machine. The esp2 works better than our old La Pavoni and was cheaper. It was extremely well packed for shipment and I had it installed within an hour. I expect this machine will give us many years of service mainly because it's from Grindmaster-Cecilware, one of the best coffee equipment companies in the U.S.

Great machine for two weeks (we’re open 7 hours so an average of 84 hours on, not in continuous use) then the motherboard died. It was replaced, and failed again. Cecilware will not refund the item although the defect is due on their part, and the customer representative from Cecilware was extremely rude when we explained our situation, forwarded us to his manager who sent us to voicemail and never called back. Will not be using cecilware for any further shops we are opening this year, and will replace the other products of theirs we purchased as well.

This machine pulls a great shot.... however, within the first year, the interior tank cracked. The company acknowledged this and sent me a new one. within six months, the new one cracked, this time, both of the interior tanks cracked. Upon contacting the company, they told me they would take care of it right away... They never did and I am still waiting. This is ruining my countertop with the leaks. They wont take my calls, they wont return my calls. I have no choice but to buy a new machine.

This espresso machine has helped us get our business started and has kept it going! Very dependable, it has not given us any trouble! It's great

We use this for our coffee shop. We haven't had a single problem with this machine. We make tons of espresso shots and steam a lot of milk and never an issue! This is a great machine!

This espresso machine is definitely worth the money. Everything arrived free of damage and a lot of packaging to be sure your item arrives safe.

We are very happy with our Cecilware Espresso Machine, we have opened a new café and it has been great and easy to work with. This product is very substantial for all we need to do and is able to keep up with customers.

We love this machine! It is sleek and attractive looking, and better yet it produces delicious and persistent espresso. It has the capability to keep up with our busy business and continually pump out persistently smooth and tasty coffee. It is very easy to clean, and adjust.

Cant say enough good things about this machine. We’ve had it for almost a year in our Cafe and has performed greatly. I read reviews and researched many other machines. For the money, this is the best bang for your buck. When the espresso machine in our coffee trailer dies we are quickly buying another cecilware espresso machine.

This ESP@-22OV Venezia II Two Group Espresso is the most amazing espresso maker the espresso is nice with it fast heating cycle, the espresso shots that come from this machine are flawless and so high quality. The wand with its adorable coffee bean not only protects your fingers from burning but also gives the machine an adorable look. Thanks to this machine we can program it to our liking. Making espresso drinks will never be the same again!

This is one of the machines we use at our coffee stand and we love it. It brews really strong espresso and it's never bitter.

excellent machine for when your on a pinch. you do need the filter system to go with it though so just get it and face the music

A great espresso machine that can produce enough espresso and steamed milk for small commercial stores. I use this in my shop and keep up with demand easily.

This machine is top of the line. It not only looks nice and appealing it can do everything you would ever need it to do with ease.

I really love this machine! It has a very sleek and modern look to it and it works very efficiently! The steamers work great, which are something that I have had a problem with other machines in the past.

An awesome two group espresso machine that works great for making our specialty coffee drinks. A nice quality machine and works really fast for volume making.

I purchased a Cecilware ESP2-220V Venezia II Two Group Espresso Machine after2 days of usage the steam wands started leaking. I contacted webstaurant store and they directed me to the factory for warranty problems. I called Cecilware and was told it is a common problem and could be fixed with new O-rings. I was told I would have to buy them because this is a ware item. Even though it worked only 2 days. I decided to order 25 only to find out they don't have any stock. I then had the left steam wand valve stop 1 week later. I again contacted Cecilware factory and they said they would ship parts overnight to fix the problem and sent me a video on how to repair. The part never arrived. Then the next day the right valve stopped working. I Read More

For the price, it's okay, but it's a bit finicky. My portafilters constantly pop out while shots are being poured. Made for experienced baristas only.

This is an absolutely outstanding machine! Not only does it perform, but it has great sleek looks to it! It will pay for itself in no time!

really like this espresso machine. it makes really nice espresso and other types of espresso drinks. it is easy to use and easy to clean.

I bought this machine a few months back and it has been great. Pulls consistent shots once you get it dialed in. Very easy to use and set up and once set up is done it’s as simple as pushing the button. The only complaint I would have is not getting the 3 group head machine over the 2 because when working in a higher volume the extra group head would be great. Overall great machine and great price

Good entry level for this machine. Makes very good espresso. Had the machine for almost 2 years now and so far so good, just normal wear and tear except I had to fix a part on it that wasn't suppose to break , but was under warranty so it worked out fine.) Will see it=f it last me as long as a brand name one .

Purchased a year ago and haven't had any issues with it thus far. It is a very easy machine to program and use. It steams a pitcher of milk within approx. 15-20 seconds.

I love love love this machine! I would highly recommend it to anyone with a coffee shop or planning on opening one! Its easy to clean. Its easy to program. The instructions that came with it are very simple to read. The steam wand heads are easy to get off for cleaning which I love. If you do go a little to fast between things like pulling shots it does have a slight mechanical relay which makes a horrid sound but it only happens every once in a while and for just a second. also it takes about 15-20 minuets to fully heat up once i turn it on. I do love that you can either twist or pull to purge the steam wands that is an awesome feature. The filter pots are nice and heavy and easy to clean as well. It does come with a back flush disk you put it a filter which is rubber i do prefer the back flush basket you put in a filter pot instead. you do need to buy that separate.

Great startup espresso machine for our donut and coffee shop. We currently make on about 15 espresso drinks a day, but I know it will be able to handle more than that. Froths milk perfectly and was very easy to get the espresso shots dialed in and programmed.

WE LOVE THIS MACHINE!! Pulls some of the best shots we have ever gotten. Quiet, efficient, and most importantly, CONSISTENT!! We know that our customers are getting the same quality every time, in every drink.

We fell in love with this machine in last May when we had it installed for the opening of our new bakery. 8 months into service we started to have issues, one mainly was the nozzle of the potter filter. We removed it once to clean and it never lined up again. We reached out to Grind Master and even sent a video of the issue and the rep was rude and degrading. he kept insisting that WE striped the thread on the nozzle and no matter how many times I told him that can only happen over time and this was a relatively new machine and the first time the nozzle was removed he came up with all the excuses under that son why it was NOT their issue. We love this machine but clearly, the GM service part of this deal stinks.

The machine itself works decent. But NOTE if you purchase the installation package you need to be within a certain millage in order for them to actually come and install it for you. Also, we had/still have issues with the water pressure.
