There are so many espresso machines on the market now, and I thought it would be fun to do a little series on them. I decided to begin with a list of espresso machines. Feel free to leave a comment with any I have missed and I’ll update this post. Believe me, I know this is an incomplete list.
- La Marzocco
- Simonelli
- Laranzato
- Synesso
- RIO Espresso Machines
- Saeco
- Rancilio
- La San Marco
- Wega
- Astoria
- Victoria Arduino
- La Cimbali
- La Spaziale
- Becerra
- Brasilia
- Conti
- Faema
- Electra
- Gaggia
- Unic
- La Pavoni
- Pasquini Espresso Co.
- Nuova Simonelli
- Astra
- Dalla Corte
And a million others. Help me make this list complete by suggesting machines in the comments.

Great list everyone. Thanks! I’ll update the post soon with the additions.
I saw a few Wega machines in Rome. Just got back to Phoenix a few minutes ago. Took exactly 24 hrs to get home.
