Bottom Line: It is like buying a British MG---you'll constantly be repairing it and wondering what will go wrong next; life is too short for this

Bottom Line: This is the best unit for the money if you are not into show and want to get out the door with an excellent cup each day. Maintain it and if it leaks send it back for repair and you will have a like new machine in about 2-3 weeks.

Bottom Line: Purchased this on recommendation from WLL. Asked for best super automatic for around $1,000 or so. Am ready to junk this and purchase something else.
