Ly Foley (quality: 7.0)	05.15.2009	Rating: 7.4
Bottom Line: Would I recommend it to a friend? YES

Steve Boothe (quality: 8.5)	03.16.2008	Rating: 7.2
Bottom Line: Terrific entry level machine with a mega-steamer for the milk-based drink fan. But has price risen too high?

Ethan Hartman	04.28.2007	Rating: 7.4
Bottom Line: Best-in-class steaming makes this unit a compelling value.

John Adams (quality: 6.3)	07.03.2006	Rating: 4.8
Bottom Line: Don't buy this machine, it doesn't last!

Caron Golden (quality: 6.5)	04.16.2006	Rating: 6.6
Bottom Line: I'd look for a machine that has better construction and a longer warranty. A $300 machine shouldn't simply die in three years.

Lee Rodgers (quality: 6.7)	04.11.2006	Rating: 6.6
Bottom Line: Good machine, but it does have a limited life span.

Mike Dahlor (quality: 4.8)	11.11.2005	Rating: 7.8
Bottom Line: Outside a few "dream" upgrades, the best in its class.

Mike Prince (quality: 8.2)	01.21.2005	Rating: 7.8
Bottom Line: A huge step up in shot quality (for me) while being a better value than a Silvia

Michael Sacco (quality: 7.5)	01.16.2005	Rating: 8.4
Bottom Line: Get this machine if you're starting out but want to learn. Also get the non press. basket and the Rocky. Quite a Team

Jim Fradkin (quality: 8.0)	12.10.2004	Rating: 5.6
Bottom Line: For the first eleven months, the SL-70 made great lattes. After that, one thing after another broke.

Debbie Boiano (quality: 5.0)	08.12.2004	Rating: 6.0
Bottom Line: One year later I need a new machine.

Stan Malyshev (quality: 8.0)	07.19.2004	Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: Quality internals, cheap body, great espresso.

Garry Garrison (quality: 7.0)	03.19.2004	Rating: 8.0
Bottom Line: A good buy and an excellent workhorse that produces an excellent espresso with little fuss.

Fr. John Abraham (quality: 8.3)	05.25.2003	Rating: 8.2
Bottom Line: Would recommend to anyone in this budget range without hesitation. Excellent espresso & milk drinks. Very solid.

Pine Siskin (quality: 4.3)	07.10.2002	Rating: 0.2
Bottom Line: Be sure if you buy this machine to insist they replace it within the warranty period if it doesn't work. If it does work, I defer to the excellent review on this site by a staff person.

Luc Busquin (quality: 6.5)	06.23.2002	Rating: 6.8
Bottom Line: OK for milk based drinks, forget about straight espressos.

John Kangas (quality: 6.9)	06.18.2002	Rating: 7.6
Bottom Line: Good cheap starter, or if you're in a hurry.

Dave Dawes (quality: 8.0)	04.22.2002	Rating: 9.0
Bottom Line: High quality components and good-to-great espresso at a very reasonable price.

Colin Newell (quality: 6.5)	12.31.2001	Rating: 8.4
Bottom Line: This is the best bang for the espresso buck for any level of coffee love!

James Schulman (quality: 8.6)	10.12.2001	Rating: 8.4
Bottom Line: With non-restrictor basket, it‘s in the Gaggia/Rancilio class.
