Negative Product Points
There is no information on training my kitten Jasmina-see www.newkitty.com to make me a double expresso Cappucino at 5am when she scratches my feet to wake up-or at least turn the machine on
Detailed Commentary
I have done 6months of research on making expresso drinks and reviewing all models and machines. The winner for reliability and aesthic beauty,cost-bang for buck was Rancillo Silvia. I took this machine out of the box and made myself several expresso drinks that were better then anything I had at the coffee bars I frequent. I wish I had bought this machine a year ago I would have saved 700 dollars from the inferior drinks I drank.
You need to have a quality grinder i got the rocky as a combo deal with the silvia and it looks great in my kitchen.
Guys and Gals-if you want to impress a date make the drink in front of them this will score you points on the good list!
you can't do this with the super machines!
Buying Experience
