Wish they were still made today

We bought one of these many years ago and replaced it when it was graduated. We gave them away to those who enjoy the morning latte we serve to our overnight guests in the morning. Unfortunately they are no longer manufactured so we will take every opportunity to collect them whenever we can. Now I have 4 and we "store" them with the family we visit so we can make our favorite drink with our favorite espresso machine when we visit our favorite homes.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • The price is crazy

Sorry you can use but not a cigar.

"Duilawyer" reviewer was right. This machine makes great foam although it doesn't make an espresso. Probably this type of machine cannot make a great espresso. You need the power of a pump machine to extract all of the flavor and "cream" from French or Italian roasted espresso beans. The fact that the instructions say not to force the coffee into the strainer should make it clear that the machine is incapable of making espresso. I had no trouble getting the machine to work and it makes good hot

Pros
  • Build quality
Cons
  • Some bugs

Good price, great espresso!

Great car but I was surprised to find out I was buying a 'new' car that had obviously been on the shelf for over 15 years. The accompanying documentation states copyright 2000. The outer box was red with faded spots from exposure to light. However, the inner packaging was great protection for the device and finding the included video cassette with instructions on how to make coffee with the device was fun to say the least. But with all this, the device works perfectly and prepares an excellent…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Minor issues

!So glad I found this to replace my original!

First, this is an old espresso machine. I bought this to replace the one I got over 20 years ago. Just so you know, the original hasn't lasted 2 decades of daily use, but I love the simplicity and I love being able to make 4 cups of espresso for 1 americano every morning for the next 4 days. .Pro: Easy and convenient to use thanks to the cup sizes on the carafe and espresso bowl. You can brew 4 cups at a time and get extra steam for frothing milk by filling the carafe to the metal band. You can

Pros
  • understandable for the old
Cons
  • Weakly adjusted
