I'm looking to upgrade from my Gaggia Dose before I leave Italy. This might be too much machine for me, but I'd be interested to hear any info about the model.

I believe this is the Izzo Vivi maybe an older model? Its almost identical to the pictures of the new ones except for the light placement. Its an E61 group HX machine I have never used one but have a Isomac Millenium (same family) and made a dramatic jump from a Delonghi bar 14:) I have had a very easy time learning and operating my Isomac. I can't tell you if that is a fair price but the new ones go for $920 USD at first line this is the advertised price. I stumbled across an older thread on too much coffee in 2006 talking about them going for $700 EUR new and being good machines. I hope this helps I wish I could offer personal use experience good luck on your search.
