In this detailed review, we'll be looking at several key factors, discussing each one at length: - Product Overview, including our initial impressions of the chrome peacock, some history of the device, published specifications, materials and build, and some notes from the company's literature as well as third party resources.
- Operation and Maintenance, which looks at the everyday workability of the machine, how to get the most out of it, and more. We put the machine through the paces and point out things we liked and don't like, as well as how easy (or difficult) it is to maintain.
- Machine Performance is where we get down to the serious issues of how the machine performs as compared to other espresso machines. We also evaluate our expectations of the machine and whether or not it delivers.
- Comparisons will have head to head looks at the La Pavoni Professional and some competing machines.
- Conclusion is where we provide our final say on this product, and our recommendations and ratings.
We'll also be evaluating this machine for what it is - a manual machine that requires a lot of hands-on use.

There's almost something magical about using a manual product like this, if you're really into espresso. Next Page...
