Not worth the price.

It may be a work of art, but it is not functional and too expensive. It's annoying to use and you'll hardly get a cup of coffee out of it. I wouldn't buy it again.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • There are nuances

Amazing quality percolators

This is a very well made device. It's easy to use and makes about 8 ounces of espresso. It's easy to clean and I expect it to last for decades. I tried to replicate an espresso I had in Paris and it helped me to replicate it at home.

Pros
  • Finally purchased
Cons
  • No paint required

Clumsy and inefficient coffee maker

This coffee maker looks good but that's the end of the good times, it's very bulky and its size doesn't fit in a cupboard. The coffee isn't as good as my Bialietti and I'm not a fan of the fact that it only makes 6 cups of espresso despite its large footprint. As for moka pots, this is not my favorite.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • New competitors are here

Amazing, amazing device - BUT DON'T WASH IT IN THE DISHWASHER!

Really simple, easy to use - makes great espresso and coffee. Attention: DO NOT WASH IN THE DISHWASHER! FOR A WASH IT WILL POSH IT. All the other pots and pans I have are dishwasher safe, but for some reason this thing turned dark black and gray. In just one wash! I've never seen anything like this. It seems strange that you can put something on an open fire but not wash it in the dishwasher. Find out.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Fits

Great pot! for percolators

I love this little teapot. I bought this size because I wanted to reduce the number of daily cappuccinos. Looks great on the stove. This pan is way better than the Bialetti I use which turns black easily and doesn't look great on the stovetop unless you're after a scruffy look. lol The coffee is delicious, the foam is nice and fluffy. Only downside for me is that it is very difficult to open. I try not to overtighten when making a pot. If anyone has any recommendations to make it easier to open

Pros
  • positive only
Cons
  • factor set

Uplifting design

Nice to look at and have at home! Charming classic modern design. Yes, it only makes one shot of espresso, not a large shot. So if you want more, buy a bigger model (your American should always have bigger)! I use my 3 cup cupola a lot so I get it. This item works perfectly as it should if used properly. It can't fail, it's a simple tool involving simple physics, but it's amazing! Don't leave it on the stove once it starts bubbling! Only fill in water up to the nut on the side. My only…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Slightly torn
