| An espresso machine is the ultimate splurgy gift  An espresso machine isn't just an appliance; it's a luxurious dream come true: Drinking cappuccinos on the regular on your couch without ducking out to a café; the envy and the gratitude that will come in equal parts when you offer dinner guests an after-dinner espresso shot. All that can be yours.
If you're ready to pull the trigger on buying an espresso machine, be prepared to shell out a little cash. Home espresso machines can be wildly expensive. Rightfully so. Pulling a perfect shot requires precision: The machine must maintain both exacting temperatures and stable pressure to successfully brew espresso. Achieving this is difficult and requires complex machinery.
We wanted to find the best espresso machines available to home brewers for less than $2,000—a price point high enough that you'll get a really high-quality machine but still a far cry from the top end of professional-grade espresso makers. We hoped to find a machine that could pull a shot that—if not quite to the level of a prized Italian café or a high-dollar Brooklyn coffee shop's—would have nuanced flavor, the right amount of brightness and acidity, and very little bitterness.
