General info
We consider a thinner chassis better because it makes the product more compact and portable. Thinness is a feature highlighted by many manufacturers of mobile devices, but it is essential for a wide range of products.
The height represents the vertical dimension of the product. We consider a smaller height better because it assures easy maneuverability.
The width represents the horizontal dimension of the product. We consider a smaller width better because it assures easy maneuverability.
Volume is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by the product's chassis or, in simpler terms, the space the product occupies.
Components
A burr grinder works in such a way that you can get a consistent, uniform size of grind each time, which is one of the key aspects of getting great tasting espresso. On the other hand an inferior blade grinder often leaves you with an inconsistent grind.
2.Has an integrated grinder

An adjustable cup clearance is useful when you wish to use larger cups and mugs, such as when making a latte macchiato.
It has a steam wand, which allows you to make steamed/frothed milk to create other drinks from an espresso base.
The machine automatically deposits the used coffee grounds or pods into the dump box after extraction. The dump box capacity shows how many drinks you can create before it is full.
A bigger bean hopper means that you have to refill it less often.
Water source
With a larger water tank you don’t have to refill it as often.

A hot water outlet is useful as it can be used to heat cups, as well as making americanos, long blacks and teas.
An integrated water filter produces cleaner water for brewing espresso. It also helps to prevent the build up of limescale.

Miscellaneous
Ground coffee, especially if freshly roasted and ground, results in much better quality coffee than the kind of results you get with pods or capsules.
