   Using the machine for few days now. Moved (can say upgraded to 🤗) to this after my Agaro Imperial one broke down.
   So i can easily compare this machine with the different ones avail in same price bracket.
   First of al Looks, It’s soo sooo good looking and surely the eye catcher.
   1. Built – The Built, Looks and that Display makes it look so premium and costly, infact no one will believe you if you tell it’s real price.
   2. Functionality – It is very easy to operate even for a beginner
   And for the pro, the temperature control and that the brew time settings keeps you in the game while being on the edge. Even some upper 20s-30s range machine lack these features.
   3. Brewing – Brewing will depend on person to person liking and the coffee you will choose. But i can say, it can brew it all.
   (My personal choice, A good Medium or Dark-Medium Roast Arabica Coffee Beans)
   4. Steamer/Frother – Have a decent enough steamer, among the competitors it’s one of the best as other uses those hollow extenders which does the terrible job.
   It’s little tricky to find the perfect steaming knob position, but once you does it can actually make good coffee art.

   Cons
   1. Space between porta Filter spout and the base is very less and can fit very small or the provided cup only. Same goes for the Steam Wand.
   2. That plastic Spoon/Temper in pathetic, just throw it away. (All brands in this price range providing the same.
   3. This one is not a con but if added in future units will be a really good option – Pre Soaking/Infusion time. If this one is added, it will surely be a game changer, specially for Coffee Nerds.

   Personal Suggestion-
   1. Never buy pre-grounded coffee, they tastes stale and weird within a week or two after opening. Instead get a decent coffee grinder and buy whole beans only. It will keep the taste consistent.
   Avoid those electric multipurpose grinder, get Burr Grinders only.
   ( One Budget Friendly options is, Instacuppa Manual Hand Grinder with 40 Adjustments settings)
   2. Get a good Tamper, a really good Spring Loaded Tamper will cost around 1k, but it’s a must investment. The included tamper is the worst one and you will always get bitter uneven espresso shot with that
   3. Surely get a Puck Screen, i will make sure your machine water screen stays clean and doesn’t clog up the tiny water holes. Over all will keep your machine clean and hygienic. And will reduce overall maintenance. It hardly costs 250-300₹
   4. If have budget get a wdt tool too.
   5. All the nerds out there get non-pressurised Basket asap, the included basket is crap and doesn’t brings out the actual taste and flavours of coffee due to zero extractions of oil.

   My Gears and settings –
   1. Espresso Machine – Vantro X1
   2. Tamper – THW Spring Loaded Tamper
   3. WDT Tool – Custom 3D Printed
   4. Puck Screen – THW 51MM Puck
   5. Grinder – InstaCuppa Manual Hand Grinder(40 Adjustment Setting one, Avoid any 5-6 Adjustments grinder
   6. Basket – bottomless 16gm 51mm basket (Got Two basket combo from amazon for around 500₹)
   7. Coffee Beans –
   Budget One : Moka Farms Arabica Beans Medium Roast
   Bit Pricy one : Third Wave/Blue Tokai Medium or vienna Roast

   Overall Suggestion – Beginners surely Go with this one blindly.
   And all those coffee nerds out there it’s a really good machine, you will surely love it. Specially those little tweaks and extra control options.

   The espresso machine brews excellent coffee with rich flavor and a beautiful, consistent crema. It’s solidly built, intuitive to operate, and heats up impressively fast. All functions work seamlessly, and cleaning is quick and hassle-free. The only drawbacks are the limited mug height — taller mugs simply don’t fit, a bottomless portafilter would have been a great addition to increase clearance — and the drip tray, which doesn’t sit perfectly in place. Despite these minor issues, it’s still a superb choice for daily coffee lovers who value quality and consistency.

   I’ve been using the Vantro Espresso Coffee Machine for a few days now, and I’m genuinely impressed by what it offers at this price point.

   What I liked:
   Design & Build: The machine looks sleek on the counter and doesn’t take up much space. The stainless-steel finish gives it a premium look.

   Easy to Use: It’s beginner-friendly. Within a couple of tries, I figured out how to get a good espresso shot and steam milk properly.

   Steam Wand Works Well: The frother heats up quickly and gives decent foam for cappuccinos and lattes. Great for homemade café vibes.

   Quick Heat-up Time: Heats up in under a minute, which is super convenient for busy mornings.

   Taste: With the right grind and coffee, it pulls a pretty solid espresso — much better than instant coffee or pod machines.

   Things to keep in mind:
   Plastic Drip Tray: Feels a bit lightweight. It does the job but could’ve been sturdier.

   Slight Vibration: The machine vibrates a little while extracting. Not a deal-breaker, but worth mentioning.

   Needs Practice: Like most manual espresso machines, your first few cups may not be perfect — but once you get the hang of tamping and timing, it delivers consistently.

   Final Verdict:
   If you’re looking to get into espresso without spending a fortune, this machine is a great start. It’s not a professional machine, but for the price, it delivers surprisingly well. I now look forward to my morning coffee ritual more than ever!

   I’ve been using this espresso machine for a couple of months now and I’m genuinely impressed by what it offers at this price point. This is one of the most affordable machines I could find with 20 bar pressure, and it delivers solid espresso shots with a decent crema.

   It comes with a 51mm pressurized portafilter and two basket options – one for a single shot and another for a double. Both work well depending on how strong I want my coffee. The water tank capacity is decent, and I don’t have to refill it too frequently.

   Since it has a single boiler, you can either brew or steam milk at a time – not both simultaneously – but that’s expected in machines at this range. Frother works perfectly fine. The touch screen controls are a pleasant surprise – very responsive and modern-looking. You can also adjust brewing parameters like temperature and time, which is a big plus if you like tweaking your coffee settings.

   Overall, if you’re looking for a budget-friendly espresso machine with good pressure, customizable options, and a sleek design, this is a great pick. Perfect for beginners or casual home brewers.
