Flair Espresso

I needed a way to stop paying for a flat white every day. The starter bundle was good value and the parts you need are all included. Shots are decent once you have dialled the grind in. Nothing else to say really.

Honestly it is much nicer than the pod machine I had at uni, which tasted like cardboard. The shots here have proper body and I can make a flat white without queuing. Setup was easy and the parts arrived quickly. Glad I went for it.

I needed a decent grinder because my old blade one was giving inconsistent results. Looked at three or four options and the one I picked was better value than the rest once I added up the extras. Grind is even and the machine has been running well for a few months. Happy with it.

I needed a reliable machine for the holiday let so guests could make decent coffee without fuss. The set I chose has been easy to clean between changeovers and nothing has broken yet. Ordering was straightforward and the price was fair for what it is. Happy to keep using them.

I bought the grinder alongside the machine, which felt like a sensible saving since I was already paying for delivery. The grinder is quiet enough that I can use it before the rest of the house is up. The dial is easy to adjust and the grounds are consistent from one day to the next. For the money it is a solid buy.

I bought the Flair Pro lever machine for my husband's birthday after he'd been talking about making proper espresso at home for years. The machine arrived well packed and was straightforward to set up with the instructions provided. He has used it every morning since and says the crema is better than anything he has had from a café in town. I would happily order from them again.

The burr grinder is the first thing I'd point to, it's still doing exactly what it did in the first week and I've stopped worrying about it going wrong. I've had the knock box and a spare bag of beans from them on a regular order for about two years now, and the reorder reminders from the site mean I never run out. Mornings are calmer for it.

The first thing that struck me was the tamper that comes with the set, which is weighted and sits nicely in the hand. I have used a few espresso setups before so I can tell the difference. The only small niggle is that the portafilter basket is a touch snug for my usual dose. Otherwise it pulls a lovely shot.

I think it is a sound machine for the money, and it has been on the worktop every morning since I unpacked it. The steam wand takes a little practice but I am now producing a reasonable milk texture. Delivery was prompt and the box arrived intact. I have no complaints worth mentioning.

I got the starter kit and a bag of beans to try it out, and the beans came packed in a bag with a valve so they stayed fresh. The kit has everything you need to begin without buying extras. The first few shots were a bit sour but it settled down after a week of tweaking. Pleased with the start.

Compared with the capsule machine I had before, this is a different world. The shots taste like real espresso and I am no longer tied to buying pods. I have been a customer for years, mostly for replacement gaskets and spares, and they have always been reliable. The machine has held up well and I expect it to last a long time.

I used to buy ground coffee from the supermarket and it was never quite right, so switching to a proper setup was a big step. Compared with my old drip machine the flavour is much fuller and the crema actually holds. I have been a customer for a few years now and the kit has never let me down. Recommending it to my sister next.

The grinder hopper lid was a bit loose when it arrived which was the first thing I noticed. Otherwise the coffee tastes great and the grind settings are easy to work through. Sent a message through the site and they sorted a replacement part quickly. Small thing but worth knowing.

Best place I've found for coffee kit, and I've been a customer for years. Reorders are quick and the advice when I got stuck with a grind setting was spot on.

I would say the machine is well made and does what I need, though the wait for delivery was longer than the site suggested. I did contact them about the delay and a reply came after a few days rather than the same day. Once it arrived everything worked as described. A little slow, but I have no real quarrel with the product.

The site was easy to use and the checkout took only a couple of minutes. Delivery arrived in the window they gave and the box was packed carefully. Setting it up took under half an hour. Good first experience with them.

I purchased the knock box and a separate tamper to go with the machine I already owned. Both are well finished and the knock box has a sturdy bar that does its job. I found the order simple to place and the items arrived together. Everything I needed in one place, and the quality is what I would expect.

Way easier than the stovetop moka pot I was using before, honestly. Heats up quick and the shots taste much cleaner. Ordered on a Friday and it turned up Tuesday. Would buy again.

I needed something to make proper coffee at home since I was spending a fortune on takeaway cups every week. This was my first proper machine so I was nervous about setup, but the guide was clear and the first few shots came out properly. I have already had two friends ask where I got it. Really pleased I went for it.
