I've had a smaller one for a few years but bought this one because I have a group to make several pots and we're all sitting around waiting for coffee. This kettle is large enough to brew three large cups of very strong coffee. (The ten cups listed are espresso cups, and I have to admit that I poured the espresso into a large mug, added milk and sugar, and drank. Maybe that's why I write so many Revain reviews?) It's definitely in my hands . serves morning coffee or lean coffee. - Decaffeinated dinner for two to four people, which covers my needs in most situations. When I have a dozen people here, I have to turn the French press. There are much cheaper coffee machines for the stove. What makes this one better? Well it's great and the handle pops off in one nice quick movement to take it apart - it's fun and easy once you understand how it works. But for me the most important thing is that the handle is metal unlike many others. All the others I've tried all had black plastic handles. That means if I turn the flame up too high, I don't go back to the stove and find a mess of melting plastic. And then I have to admit that sometimes I get distracted and forget about the coffee on the stove. If you do this, even if the temperature isn't too high, you'll end up with a huge mass of molten plastic on a regular coffee maker. pop) I figured getting one of these would be cheaper and less stressful in the long run. I had my original smaller one about five years ago so I think if you count my life savings in dead Bialetti my investment will have paid off by now! Another thing I really like about this and its smaller companion is the quality of the metal. Perfect. As a result, when I leave, I will not return home to find small white spots all over my body. If I've ever been out of town for more than a day or two, I've come home with the Aluminum Bialetti for cleaning. With this I don't worry about drying out - just rinse it off after use - and I don't have any issues with weird white spots.
