I give four stars because working the pump is hard.
Having said that...you don't know how good espresso can be until its extracted with this. First of all I'm a coffee aficionado and I roast my own coffee blend from four distinct beans from around the world to produce a blend to my taste.
I have a Gaggia Classic to make espresso, but man let me tell you that the espresso from this machine is night and day difference from the espresso made by the Gaggia. Espresso from this machine is spectacular; best espresso I've had in my life and I'm not exaggerating.
Now operating the pump gets hard after second or third pump. So one star off for that, because in the video its edited in such a way that they do not show the user straining to pump it.
Also do not tamp down the grind. My grind is as fine as baking flour and if I tamp it down the machine will not work. I load the grind just level it off and clean the edge of the basket. That is it, and I get the most exceptional espresso with this portable espresso maker.
UPDATE!!!!
Sorry to TRIMM for not posting this earlier but they completely replaced the entire package for me free of charge and sent it out immediately after posting this review. I also used some old gaskets I found on the ship and repaired the other one to the best of my abilities. It works as well now. Absolutely wonderful customer service!!!! I will be using this on my camping trips from now on and will be a TRIMM user for life. Thank you TRIMM again sorry this wasn't sooner!
This thing is awesome! Bought this for use while deployed on a ship and it really does make a great espresso and its very simple to use. A little bit of a pain to do a couple in a row but no big deal if you keep a rag around with it! would be great for camping or at the office etc. Home use I would just pick up a bigger nicer model. I have owned this for just over a month and I put it to use. Probably between me and my buddy ,who also enjoys it, we use it about 10-12 times a day. There has already been some wear and tear on it. The handle that extends out for pressuring the water through has a small hole at the base of it that squirts water out every time you pump it now and it seems one or two of the O-rings are already giving out. Though like I said this thing has been getting worked for 4 weeks straight non stop. Would have been five stars if it would have held up. I am going to continue to use it until it falls apart completely though cause wow its good. I will most likely try and get another one when I get back home for use when I go camping or to kids events! I recommend this just wish that TRIMM could send some replacement parts!
Definitely more than 5 stars! I purchased this item as a gift for my friend, an she loved it. The Espresso tasted BETTER than usual coffee machine and the thermos vacuum insulated double wall could keep hot water more than 8 h! Amazing.
will use this in Scotland and England on our trip this summer,,
It was exactly what I was looking for. Only one down point: thermos does not hold hot water 8 hours. The temperature of the water in 4 hours was a little bit higher than average. Its ok for making espresso in the office, but when traveling will be disappointed.

Makes For A Great Gift For The Holidays Or Special Occasions
The wife loves coffee, the wife said this was a perfect gift Works exactly like it's supposed to...thanks, finally got one right. Lol
I really like this product. It is easy to use, durable, and VERY easy to clean. Of course you're not going to get a cafe quality espresso shot from a simple product like this but it is damn good considering.
This was bought as a Christmas gift and she loved it!
The instructions while accurate were poor, as they left off intervening steps; fortunately they had a easy to understand video on Youtube. It is very easy to burn your fingers at various steps.
Love it, Love it, Love it
It look like I'm going to save my money for buying coffee during my travel :)
