Best espresso machine at home?

Hi. My family is moving to a new place and we are trying to cut down on our espresso and coffee intake. My stepdad goes to Starbucks almost every day and would rather invest the money he wastes at Starbucks in a new machine. We're looking for something that makes espresso and cappuccino, but nothing else is too crazy and I'm pretty new to this world. I'm not sure where to start! The price range will probably be under $500, but if that's where the best is, it might make sense to look there too.

Buying a new coffee machine is a good idea and it will end up doing much saving, Star Bucks is quite expensive, and going daily to it wastes a lot of money if you are a middle-class family. There are many online websites offering up to 50% off like Coupon Codest on these coffee makers which can make both Espresso and Cappuccino. In my opinion, you should go for it.
