It's less convenient than a super-automatic, I think, which it sounds like you're referring to.
I have a Jura Micro 9 [1] (bigger brother to the Micro 1 [2]), and it's literally just the button of a button, even to make a latte. They're both amazing, the closest to what I imagine you'd get if Apple had made espresso machines.
It grinds and steams, has lots of easily-changed adjustments, and the only regular maintenance is emptying the grounds, which it will tell you to do when required, and descaling every year or so. No waste aside from the bag of coffee beans every now and then.
