I had a Mr. Coffee machine exactly like these a while ago. Mine lasted about a year before the milk “frother” (it’s actually more of a heater / bubbler, it doesn’t make nice latte-style foam) stopped working. Wouldn’t draw milk in anymore, and I ended up having to turn to something external to the machine to get frothed milk.
Got tired of that real quick and went with something more like this, which had an actual steam wand:

which lasted me for about two years before the steam wand sheared off while cleaning. Decided that was the last straw and I was done spending money on cheapo machines that would break after a year and got myself a Lelit Bianca.
Those machines will work fine for about a year or so, and then invariably something will break. There’s no replacement parts available and no support from the company, so you’ll basically be SOL at that point.
I’d take some of the recommendations elsewhere here and go with a more expensive but higher quality espresso machine.
