Budget priced heat exchange, e61 group machine with added usability features including an intelligent low water cutoff system, 1400W of power, and a 1.6 litre boiler.
Bottom Line: Anita is a great addition to any CoffeeGeek's kitchen. Great build quality, beautiful lines, timer capable, and good coffee, all at a reasonable price point.
Bottom Line: I went from no experience to consistent, very nice drinks in about a month - still learning, and improving, but this machine makes quality espresso possible.
Bottom Line: If you've spent more that a week reading through these reviews, You are to much like me. stop wasting your time and buy the anita. and get ready for some really yummy drinks.
Bottom Line: Awesome machine, even if it had cost more. No upgrade needed here! Can't wait to use it every morning! Paired with a quality grinder, tamper, and good beans, espresso heaven is yours!
Bottom Line: For the price, this is the best prosumer machine. Unless you want a plumbed-in model, the Anita is the hands down winner in this class. Buy yours from Chris' Coffee.
Bottom Line: Just my opinion, but the most logical choice for the money. For me, I would only go from here to a double boiler rotary (maybe when I retire and have plenty of money!)
