Pros
- Honestly, it’s a great machine for the price. Lot of people here whining about the grinder but for basic needs, it does its job. It’s not for the perfectionist who want the best grinder but it’s for enthusiasts who like to play around a...
- I have the Meraki and I am quite happy with it. The support is very good and helps a lot with issues and the machine is nice from my point of view. Yes it has many plastic parts, but they look and feel good and I did not expect a full me...
- Looks like Meraki is good machine for easy coffee making but that’s my concerns.
- For workflow this thing does look amazing. Keeping the rest of your household happy by being able to dial everything in and forgetting is also great.
- Then you can also go with much better access points like Ubiquiti or Meraki.
Cons
- Not a unifi thing, but Meraki, got a bunch of users with Samsungs at work that latch on to an AP that’s 3 solid walls away in the basement and start to bounce off it, when there’s a perfectly good AP right above them, 3 feet away no obst...
- It came with the Meraki in the box, but you can search for "wooden tamping station" on Amazon, Temu etc and find something similar quite easily
- Any Meraki users care to share their experience?
- I'm a happy Meraki owner who previously owned a Bambino Plus and a Fellow Opus. I love most of the machine and I definitely don’t regret this upgrade. The grinder is ages better than the Opus (both in functionality and grind size). The m...
- Overall, find it makes great espresso, workflow is really nice with built in scales, cleaning is a pain, and grinder is solid (not going to blow your mind, but better than the older Oracle I had).

I'm a happy Meraki owner who previously owned a Bambino Plus and a Fellow Opus. I love most of the machine and I definitely don’t regret this upgrade. The grinder is ages better than the Opus (both in functionality and grind size). The machine is pretty straightforward and you can feel its quality (despite everyone complaining about the plastic) and attention to detail. ... The only thing for me is that the steamwand is too strong in comparison to my previous Bambino, meaning that it’s way less forgiving with errors when steaming milk.
Overall, find it makes great espresso, workflow is really nice with built in scales, cleaning is a pain, and grinder is solid (not going to blow your mind, but better than the older Oracle I had).
Honestly, it’s a great machine for the price. Lot of people here whining about the grinder but for basic needs, it does its job. It’s not for the perfectionist who want the best grinder but it’s for enthusiasts who like to play around a little and get the best coffee you can. For the price you pay, it is a great value the machine offers.
I have the Meraki and I am quite happy with it. The support is very good and helps a lot with issues and the machine is nice from my point of view. Yes it has many plastic parts, but they look and feel good and I did not expect a full metal device.

The device looks stunning and it seems like I’m able to learn more about espresso and milk-based drinks with the machine. It’s awesome that it has a dual boiler and a grinder too. I just have concerns on the longevity of the device since the brand is fairly new and how it is also reliant on a digital, as well as components that may be only for the product (such as a non E61 grouphead). From the reviews, it seems like there’s also a lot of plastic (including the water reservoir) which furthers my concern for longevity.
