Some time ago now I had recommended the Gaggia Evolution for a less-expensive espresso coffee maker for the home. This recommendation was based on my experience as an owner of a Gaggia Evolution.
However, the Evolution is no longer available so I would like to make a new suggestion for a more affordable espresso maker.
For something close to 10 years now, I have owned a Breville dual boiler espresso machine. I recommended it in this review: Espresso Machine Review: Breville Dual Boiler BES900XL.
To my surprise, I am still using that same machine which in itself is a great recommendation for the Breville brand since I have never had an espresso machine last that long before.
Breville offers a lower-end model that they call the Barista Express. Although I do not own and have not used this model, based on my experience with the Breville brand, I would recommend you at least consider it as an option if you are looking for an espresso machine in the mid-range price band.
