First espresso setup
Every figure this setup rests on, every check still open, and the source and day behind each one.
Will this setup work in your space?
Not known yet: Measuring 5 figures settles whether this setup fits.
The answer depends on your circuit: it is over the limit on a 15 A shared kitchen circuit and inside it on a 20 A shared kitchen circuit.

The one that decides the most is first, and how to do each is under it.
Confirm the depth of the Encore ESP Grinder
Two published sources give different figures, so we don't use either. Depth decides whether it sits inside the counter's edge.
How: Measure from the very back of the item to the very front, including any drip tray or handle.
Confirm the height of the Encore ESP Grinder
Two published sources give different figures, so we don't use either. Height decides whether it clears whatever is above the counter.
How: Measure from the counter to the highest point, with any lid or hopper closed.
Confirm the width of the Encore ESP Grinder
Two published sources give different figures, so we don't use either. Width decides whether it sits on the counter at all.
How: Measure the widest point, from the left edge to the right edge, in millimetres.

Measure the space behind the Bambino Espresso Machine (BES450)
A machine pushed against the wall can overheat or block its own cable and drain.
Measure the space beside the Bambino Espresso Machine (BES450)
Knobs, steam wands and grinder hoppers need room to move.
Measure the space above the Bambino Espresso Machine (BES450)
A lid or a bean hopper has to open without hitting a cabinet.
Measure the room to lift the water tank out of the Bambino Espresso Machine (BES450)
If the tank lifts out of the top, you need that much room above the machine, or you will pull the machine out to refill it.

Space, power, budget, and how sure we are of each.
Yes, based on published measurements. Fits under every published figure on record, including where sources disagree on width, depth, height. Every figure behind this is a manufacturer's published dimension, and nobody has put a tape on one.
Careful. Over the continuous limit of a 15A circuit. Every figure behind this is a manufacturer's published dimension, and nobody has put a tape on one. Run the machines one at a time, or use a second circuit.
No ceiling is stated for this setup. 0 of 2 required items carry a checked price.
Partly. Sources disagree on 5 figures, so we don't use them. 3 of 13 measurements are usable.

The space, the sources, the disagreements, and what this check cannot see.
Open counter drawn to scale at 47.2 in (120 cm) by 23.6 in (60 cm). 1 item drawn from recorded envelopes: Bambino Espresso Machine (BES450) 11.9 in (30.2 cm) by 6.1 in (15.5 cm). Published sources disagree on the size, so not drawn and not counted: Encore ESP Grinder. Operating clearance is not on record for any item, so the region around each one is drawn without a committed size and cannot be measured. At most 35.4 in (89.8 cm) of width is left over: 47.2 in (120 cm) available less 11.9 in (30.2 cm) of recorded envelope, with no clearance subtracted and 1 item left out because the sources disagree on the size.
Setistry does not use these figures for fit. A measurement of the unit is what settles it.

Space is judged against the station's stated width, depth and height, using each product's envelope and whatever operating clearances are on record. The check does not see an obstacle inside that gap - a cabinet overhang, a wall bracket, a splashback lip - or anything you keep on the counter that is not part of this setup.
Electrical load is the sum of the products declared here against one circuit profile. It does not see other appliances on the same circuit that this setup does not declare, the condition of your wiring, or a supply outside the regime the circuit names.
Pairings are recorded one by one. A pairing nobody has recorded reads as one we do not know about, which is not a finding that it works and not a finding that it does not.
