The La Spaziale S1 is a Dual Boiler, rotary pump, direct plumbed commercial espresso machine. It features a 2.5 liter steam boiler and a 450 mil group boiler and is all electronically programmable.

Bottom Line: The perfect home espresso machine for the current HX machine owner with a bad case of upgradeitis.
Michael Wolfson (quality: 8.8) 07.04.2008 Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: Great machine. Effortlessly makes top-notch espresso and microfoam, very consistently, day-in and day-out. No regrets, I'd buy it again.

Bottom Line: The preeminent prosumer machine offering all of the top commercial features under $2K
Wolfgang Gaggl (quality: 8.3) 10.18.2005 Rating: 9.8
Bottom Line: Gorgeous, reliable machine that produces great espresso shots and foamed milk, no matter if you make one cup a day or 30 shots in a row.
Martin Lipton (quality: 8.2) 05.15.2007 Rating: 9.0
Bottom Line: Stands alone as a well-integrated "package" of desirable features and quality. A worthy upgrade even if your current machine is "pretty good."

Bottom Line: Good solid machine. Great thermal stability and quality construction for a fantastic price. Rotary pump with dual boilers for under $2000!
James McNab (quality: 8.1) 12.17.2004 Rating: 9.6
Bottom Line: This is one incredible piece of machinery! The rotary pump produces consistently excellent espresso and plenty of steam for frothing.

Bottom Line: Sexy, Sleek, and produces damn good coffee
Barry Libenson (quality: 7.9) 12.14.2004 Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: Buy it before the Euro drives the cost up, you won't be sorry!
James Trabits (quality: 7.7) 07.27.2007 Rating: 9.2
Bottom Line: I'd buy it again, even if they don't fix the Manometer and Timer issues. I can fix the rest but I should not have to.
Walter Harley (quality: 7.7) 07.27.2007 Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: Competition quality machine with no compromises.
Bob Roseman (quality: 7.7) 07.05.2004 Rating: 9.6
Bottom Line: Compared to HX machine, pricey but worth the additional money.
John McPhail (quality: 7.5) 02.26.2008 Rating: 8.8

Niko K. (quality: 7.3) 09.23.2006 Rating: 9.6
Bottom Line: If you want to buy your last machine, make it the La Spaziale S1...it's upgrade proof. And make sure you "Got MILK..."
Jim Stewart (quality: 7.2) 02.02.2006 Rating: 9.6
