 Nice espresso but... March 10, 2008
espresso guy
Machine is significantly overpriced for build quality. Weighting is incorrect, i.e. the unit is not balanced properly. When you "pump" the espresso the machine wants to tip over. The frother position and function is subpar.
However, it did make the espresso well! Nice crema and surprisingly easy to use given the concerns people give you re: using a pump machine.
 An espresso machine for perfectionists! February 8, 2008

I have owned this machine (8-cup, chrome) for over ten years and everyday when I make my morning cappuccino I love it more. You can spend more for a machine that measures the coffee, tamps it, pulls the water through and steams the milk for you, but you can tip the kids behind the counter at Starbucks and they'll do the same thing. Making espresso should be a little art and a little science and this machine an impeccable balance of the two. If you aren't the kind of person who takes joy in mixing the perfect martini, making a risotto that whispers with flavor, or whipping a meringue to impossibly tall peaks, this probably isn't the machine for you.
The La Pavoni is for the person who will find tremendous joy in going to the lengths required to make a perfect cappuccino by hand everyday. (And don't bother using anything less than Illy Cafe coffee in it.)
