Title: decently priced espresso maker
Product review: This is a good espresso maker that works just as well as the more expensive brands. The lid is kind of cheap, but that's a non-essential, and the inside of the boiler base is not polished, not easy to clean and makes me wonder whether it might be acutally aluminum plated. But the tag says all stainless, so it must be just unpolished (which I've never seen before). But anyway, it doesn't really matter if it's stained or not on the inside of the water container. The only thing to remember is that you really have to tighten hard at first when you're screwing the pot onto the base because the gasket needs breaking in. (This is usually true of any of these kinds of pots.) If you don't, some of the water will escape and the coffee won't make properly. Also, my husband says this pot only works as a 6-cup pot, not a 10-cup. (I believe a cup is 2 ounces in espresso language.)
