either one of the last two.
the first two are play toys when it comes to espresso machines.
If those are your choices, I’d go with the Lello, although the Breville’s not bad either. I’d avoid the first two.
One thing to remember is that espresso needs a very fine grind (regular grinders won’t work well enough) and pre-ground coffee will be too stale for good flavor. Keep your budget open for a good grinder.
If you don’t want to spend more money, look at the Bialetti http://www.espressozone.com/8964.html It will make very good espresso from a more conventional grind. It will even make crema (although not as much as a powerful machine, but as much or more than your choices).
