Can it make lattes or cappuccinos?

No. It has no steam wand or frother, so it only brews espresso. You would need a separate milk frother for milk drinks.

Does it come with a portafilter and baskets?

It ships with a portafilter and filter baskets for single and double shots. Check the box contents for a scoop and tamper, which some units include and some do not.

Yes, or you can use pre-ground espresso coffee. The machine has no grinder, and its pressurized basket is forgiving of coarser supermarket grinds.

How does it compare with a De'Longhi Stilosa?

Both are entry-level pump machines. The Stilosa adds a steam wand for milk and has wider parts availability; the COWSAR offers a stainless steel body and a 20-bar pump but no frothing.

It is a basic manual machine: rinse the portafilter and basket after each use and run water through the group periodically. There is no automatic descaling program, so descale manually with a solution.

What cups does it fit?

The drip tray and spout clearance suit standard espresso cups and small mugs. Tall travel mugs likely will not fit under the spout.

About the COWSAR 2-Cup Stainless Steel Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine with 20-Bar Pressure

The COWSAR is a compact stainless steel semi-automatic espresso machine with a 20-bar pump and a 1350 W heating element. It pulls single or double shots into two cups at once and is ETL and UL listed. It suits beginners who want a low-cost entry into pump espresso without a grinder or milk frother. Against rivals like the De'Longhi Stilosa and EC680, it matches the 15-to-20-bar pump class but lacks their steam wand and brand support, so expect a more basic, less proven machine.
