Room the Barista Touch Espresso Machine asks for around it
Nothing is drawn for a figure nobody states, and the answer above stays at what published figures can carry.
We hold 3 of the 11 figures a fit check asks of this espresso machine. Nothing fits on its own, it fits a particular counter, so this page holds the figures and a setup makes the call.
You will like it if
Your counter has 15.7 in (39.9 cm) across and 12.6 in (32 cm) front to wall to give it, with 12.4 in (31.5 cm) clear above.
Depth is on record at 12.6 in (32 cm), and it is the figure most likely to end this search. Measure the space you have against it before anything else. Measure from the very back of the item to the very front, including any drip tray or handle. (manufacturer)
Choose another if
Your counter is tighter than that. The Bambino Espresso Machine (BES450) is 6.5 in (16.5 cm) shallower, in the same category, and the site holds its width, depth and height figures too.
