A true benchmark machine, this machine made Rancilio a lot of money in the past four years - it has become the standard against which all other consumer, single boiler machines are measured against.
Bottom Line: Serious quality - well built - commercial grade. Requires desire to learn about proper extraction. With the right grind and technique - will provide better coffee than all but the best coffee shops
Bottom Line: A must have machine for the common household barista to make a killer latte to impress the friends and family. It's one step away from going commercial.
Bottom Line: Happy, great machine, well built, nothing wrong, no defects, no mishaps, macine reads your mind, perfection, everyone should own one! grind your own beans. I will roast soon.
Bottom Line: Top of the line construction, monster steam production, no frills hard core espresso machine. Best in class. Tempermental at first but love soon follows.
Bottom Line: For the coffee lover who really has a yen for spending hours getting it right. Well priced and lovely looking. Not for the impatient who merely wants to throw a switch.
Bottom Line: Excellent machine that produces espresso as good or better than professional cafes, or even pro/expert machines costing much more. Very impressed with Miss Silvia.
