Bought a $30 espresso machine instead of a $400 one, zero regrets

Tbh everyone in this sub swears by the expensive machines for the bougie cafe feel at home. I went with a cheap Mr. Coffee unit from a thrift store in Phoenix and spent the leftover cash on good beans. It makes a solid enough shot for my daily latte, and I fix it myself when it acts up. Has anyone else skipped the fancy gear and got better results from putting money into ingredients instead?

Used to think the price tag mattered, but honestly good beans make way more difference.
