Bottom Line: Great for constant, repetitive and reliable use.

Bottom Line: Looks great but "bang" isn't worth the buck as it buckles under pressure!

Bottom Line: Ther perfect first-time-buyer-grinder; might be a little pricey for many beginners, but it negates the need for two grinders (drip/FP/vac and espresso), thus saving money in the long run.

Bottom Line: All-in-all, a bad experience. I am ready for the 'RIGHT MACHINE" at a very right price, (ie approx.$200).

Bottom Line: Great home espresso machine, well built with good support/spares. A few shortcomings but overall a good compromise.

Bottom Line: -adequate as it comes; a winner with the brew head upgrade

Bottom Line: Works very well, is sensitive to grind; Can't anyone else see how to add water?!?

Bottom Line: I will stay away from Gaggia when I purchase my new machine they will not be on my enquiry list.

Bottom Line: Good solid machine at a great price. Makes good tasting espresso right-off the bat. Can't recommend the pressurized portafilter for better-tasting coffee, but it does make some pretty crema.

Bottom Line: The Chrome Peacock--There is no substitute!

Bottom Line: Great little machine once its owner knows what he is doing

Bottom Line: The best drip coffee in a compact, well build, thoughtfully designed and executed drip machine.

Bottom Line: As manual lever machines are to super-automatics, so the Zassenhaus is to motorized burr grinders.

Bottom Line: Easy to use once setup properly, requires a bit of regular maintenance and cleaning. Can't complain, great machine for my office.

Bottom Line: Looks nice outside, cheap parts inside, machine-specific parts are not available. All beauty, with no brawn.

Bottom Line: Good coffee but design flaw in drip directon/messy counter, great for small hands and stature, cleans well, easily .

Bottom Line: Over rated: carafe drips end of pour, difficult to clean well and no external water column.

Bottom Line: Hot like the coffe it makes.

Bottom Line: Easy to use and maintain. Extremely reliable. Great value compared to other machines in this category.
