Good espresso maker - much better than aluminum! (2009-05-13)
I bought this to replace an old, cheap aluminum espresso maker, and I like it MUCH better. It's dishwasher safe, which is great, the handle is larger and easier to grasp, and it makes less of a mess when the pot is full and I'm trying to pour (for some reason, the aluminum one always sputtered a little when it was full, and I always got a little coffee on the stovetop). The instructions say not to pack the coffee, but that's what I always did with the old one, so that's what I've done with this one, and the coffee has been quite good.
The only complaint that I have is the length of time it takes to make the coffee (about 10 minutes), which is quite a bit longer than the aluminum one. I think part of that is because the bottom of this coffee maker isn't actually flat - the center portion of the bottom is recessed about 1/4 of an inch, so it doesn't come in contact with the heating element directly (making it heat slower). Not a big deal, but a little bit of an inconvenience. Overall, it was definitely a good purchase.
Great Stovetop Espresso Maker!! (2008-04-19)
This little espresso maker is excellent for making espresso drinks. It is so simple to use. Now I can have those pricey espresso drinks for a fraction of the cost!! And I can have that extra shot or two of espresso without the extra cost! It is very easy to use. It takes no time at all to make the espresso. Cleanup is a breeze. The pot is made of good quality stainless steel. This little pot will pay for itself in no time!! It is an excellent product at an excellent price.
The best stove top espresso maker yet (2007-12-16)
This was fantastic. Great quality stainless steel. It produces a smooth cup of espresso. I had the 'ever so popular' hex shape one and hated it. This pours perfectly unlike the other one which spills all over the place. You cannot go wrong with this. Great price, great quality.
