Robust, well made and does the job well. Small criticism is the size of the well , it would be nicer to make a slightly larger shot. My espresso cups don't even make it to half full with a full well, but not the end of the world as you can of course merely top up the shot with a little hot water
This is by far the most beautiful manual espresso machine in the world and it works like a charm.
The cup raiser on the photo, which I use to avoid splashes, was created by me, you can download it here (for free) if you have a 3D printer:

Hi Edgar,
Thanks for sharing the love and your 3D file.
The Rok was very well packaged and the delivery to Switzerland was fast. It is everything I hoped for: sturdy, good material, easy to use, nice shots from the start! I would buy it again.
Am so glad to have taken the plunge with this purchase! I really enjoy using it and it makes a damn fine coffee!
Why be without a Smart Shot?
It’s a quality of life thing.
If you know … you have one.
This one is really nice, but less solid and more tippy than the older model. It is very pretty, though. The espresso it makes is excellent.
Absolutely love this machine.
Loving it .. beautiful design, great quality, simply awesome coffee produced!

Great product
Changed my life forever 😍
Bought as a present - recipient loved the engineering concept and is endeavouring to perfect the technique.
Very happy with my purchase. Speedy delivery of a quality product.
No noise, no stress, my own coffee beans, my choice for my espresso.. What else?
Just got my ROK from SmartShot — delivery was crazy fast and everything arrived perfectly. Tried it right away and wow, our home coffee game instantly leveled up! Highly recommend it to anyone who loves good coffee.
Perfect for me. I'm not a coffee aficionado, but I wanted to be able to craft my own style. The ROK smartshot is perfect for me. It is a little unbalanced at the bottom, so I would definitely recommend putting some rubber or something on the bottom, but otherwise perfect.
Really wonderfull, it fulfiilld all my expectetions thank you
Makes good shots of coffee, but unfortunately not easy to pre-heat .
Hi Jean-Loup, we recommend simply pre-heating the portafilter with boiling water in your cup. You might find this video about thermals from Dale Harris of interest - https://youtu.be/bWskFj3ofaY?feature=shared
Well built, well priced, beautiful in the kitchen and makes amazing coffee.
Very disappointed. I have owned 4 ROKs and this one is a downgrade from th eearlier models. Aesthetically it is unbalanced and functionally the cup failed andspoiledthe seal.
Hi Chris, this is also disappointing for us to learn. We'd like to get to the bottom of what's happened here. We'll reach out to you again directly on email to resolve.
I have been afraid to try espresso at home, but I wanted to end the Nespresso coffee that I have had for about 15 years. After watching hours of YouTube videos, I decided the next logical step was the ROK. At first, I was doing it poorly, but I think I am finally getting the hang of it. I love the teal ROK. It looks great on my counter and, thanks to the learning curve it has provided, I may eventually add an espresso machine. I actually went to a coffee shop and ordered a cappucino, just to remember how one should taste. It was awful. Now, I appreciate the ROK even more as the drinks I am making at home are sooo much better. This nifty little gadget will go with me to our camper and maybe when I travel. This is such a clever device. Thanks for making it possible for my to have a good espresso in a small town in the middle of nowhere.
This is my first espresso press and it works great. Easy to use and makes a great cup of coffee without costing a fortune!
Sturdy and easy to use - I was worried the levers would be hard to press down but they work like a charm. Its easy to clean and takes up so little space on my counter-top. The espresso tastes so much better than the Nespresso pods and there is no need to make trips to a UPS store to send those for recycling now, I can just toss the grounds into my compost. Win-win!
I'm delighted with the quality of espresso I can easily create with this clever device. It outperforms machines that literally cost 10 times more, it's incredibly easy to use and it looks cool! Not thrilled by the scoop which you're supposed to use as a tamper, but it doesn't fit - so I got myself a good levelling tamper which works really well. Super important to preheat too, but that's pretty easy. Overall, highly recommended!
Hello,i just Ordered a Presso Smartshot and gave the wrong number address,can you do something about it?
Hi Serg,
We will look into in now and divert the package if it's not too late. We'll be in touch directly on email.
I love this product, and my wife loves it more because it's not a huge ugly machine that sits in the kitchen as it easily stores totally out of the way. It makes great coffee and the only drawback is I need to put it in the microwave for a few moments to heat it up to drinking temperature, but other than that it's absolutely a keeper.
I am really impressed with the simplicity of the machine and the quality of the coffee it brews. The Smartshot allows for the use of a simple blade grinder while still achieving really nice espresso shots. You can use pre-ground coffee (for drip makers) but I find that a little bit coarser than espresso grind makes the perfect shot.
Love it. For beginners like me who don't want a lot of fuss but want a good tasting latte or cappuccino. Awesome. I wish it had a little heavier base so it doesn't move and was just a tad taller for a little larger cup. Otherwise perfection. So simple and so easy to clean. So easy to make and use this device. And I didn't have to spend a lot of money. I did end up buying an arrow Chino frother. And I'll have this for years. I can see maybe down the road the only thing I'll ever need to replace is the rubber underneath. And that will be a long time from now. Very very happy with this. And especially happy that I can make it healthy. I picked my own coffee which is organic. I used my own organic milk and different flavors which are also organic without chemicals. Priceless
I am surprised at how well the ROK Presso Smartshot constantly gives me an excellent well balanced cup of Esspresso. Expect to be wowed. This coffee tool is not meant to replace the espressos from higher priced machines but gives you the ability to create a well balanced and very tasty cup og java without the high price.
In my book, this is a must have as an added easy process for quick cup.
Our son loved his gift and used it right away. Learned that you can actually blow up your coffee! Second time, it worked GREAT
