The Innova Dream is the top line machine currently from Ascaso. Much of the machine's cost is around the housing and outer materials used. It contains the same inner parts that other Innova espresso machines have.

Bottom Line: Makes great coffee, once you find the right coffe for it.

Aaron Marchand (quality: 4.5)	07.28.2006	Rating: 7.8
Bottom Line: It can be picky, but makes great espresso. If you really want everything done for you - buy a fully automated machine.

Glen Crompton (quality: 8.4)	07.29.2006	Rating: 7.4
Bottom Line: Easy machine with loads of control over the result. Not too pretty but then not to ugly either!

Mark Chassy (quality: 7.8)	10.19.2006	Rating: 8.2
Bottom Line: A good machine for someone who is serious about their espresso, and is willing to invest without going on to the Prosumer level.

Fengshui . (quality: 5.0)	05.06.2007	Rating: 8.8

Joel Bristol (quality: 9.5)	11.03.2007	Rating: 8.2
Bottom Line: Best looking machine in its class, but it still has quality components that deliver good espresso.

Elizabeth Bennett (quality: 5.0)	12.30.2007	Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: A sturdy, shiney machine that allows the beginner barrista to produce drinks like a pro!

Mister Spock (quality: 4.5)	02.17.2008	Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: This Ascaso machine really is "a dream" to use, making excellent espresso for home with loads of rich marbled crema via a 58mm pro portafilter (but it could use a pressure release valve).

Phil Goodlaxson (quality: 8.5)	04.05.2008	Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: Espresso with body and taste, a solid delivery from a solid machine.

Jon Armour (quality: 7.0)	07.25.2008	Rating: 9.0
Bottom Line: Totally sexy machine that makes fantastic coffee

Robert J. O'Brien (quality: 9.0)	11.01.2008	Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: If you're seeking power, pressure, sleek design, solid build, a simple operation, and consistent coffee quality, this is the machine for you.

Des P.	11.20.2009	Rating: 7.4
Bottom Line: -adequate as it comes; a winner with the brew head upgrade

Mike Zatt	05.09.2010	Rating: 9.6
Bottom Line: An excellent, simplistic, and beautiful machine capable of pulling consistent god shots that will make you glad to get out of bed in the morning.

Mari R	05.30.2010	Rating: 7.6
Bottom Line: It's a love hate relationship with the Ascaso. I feel like I own a Volkswagon. Every Volkswagon I have met has needed odd, expensive repairs from qualified mechanics who live elsewhere - and yet we keep BUYING Volkswagons because they are so darned CUTE.
