Used espresso machines are a great way for start-ups to keep their initial capital expenditures low, by not having to spend as much on a brand new piece of equipment. Just like pre-owned cars, pre-owned espresso machines have a lot of life left after it's first owner. What's even better with espresso machines however, is that we can rebuild them into what is basically a new machine.

Sometimes you hear stories of used espresso machines arriving is "less then functioning" condition from other online retailers. That is because there are a lot of people selling coffee equipment online, who don't have the industry focus and understanding that we have. With years of coffee experience, we know exactly that goes into a well maintained and rebuilt espresso machine.

That's why we can offer all of our equipment to be guaranteed to work on arrival or your money back! Every piece of equipment that we sell is carefully gone over or rebuilt by our staff of professional espresso technicians.

Before shipment of any of our machines, they are once again inspected with our standard 20 point checklist, ensuring you are getting the fully working, pre-owned espresso machine that you've purchased on the site. You will receive this checklist with the machine. There is a reason we sell more used equipment than any other online retailer.

Our used espresso machines come in the following four styles:

Manual These machines are operated by manually moving a lever with your hand. The lever controls the pressure necessary to brew the espresso. Very few commercial machines exist in this method.	Semi-Automatic These machines use a pump to create the necessary pressure and the pour is started and stopped by using a knob or pushing a switch. The user literally controls the water dosage so attention to detail is required.
Automatic These machines also use a pump, but the volume of water is dosed automatically. The user starts the pour, and the machine stops on its own once a programmed amount of water has been displaced.	Super Automatic They do everything at the push of a button. When you push a drink selection button, the machine grinds the portion of beans, pours the espresso, and some even steam and froth the milk as well! Anyone can make a perfect drink on these machines!
