There is a lot of just downright bad information about coffee on the Internet, a lot of it written by people who have never actually had a good espresso.
I think it was a coffee shop or online seller in UK. I suppose they know what they're talking about, more than I would anyway.

And I've never had an espresso, good or bad.

Or a well-made cappuccino.
I can make a really good espresso at home. Rancilio Silvia machine and Rocky grinder. The grinder is key. The Silvia can make a great espresso with the grind from the Rocky. Where the Silvia falls short is foaming milk. I can’t really get a true cappuccino, just can’t get stiff enough peaks with the single small boiler. My wife and I enjoy our mini lattes on the deck in the summer anyway.

Big fan of cappuccino in the afternoon. Never took the plunge to own an espresso machine for the house. That's a little too much for me.
