Title: Very DANGEROUS coffee maker!
Product review: This espresso maker is very poorly (or cheaply!) designed, causing a severe danger to any users. The threads for the screw-on top are not secure. With the build up of internal pressure from the boiling water, the top half of the espresso maker blew right off, spewing boiling water/coffee everywhere. So much for the pressure release safety valve. Had I been anywhere near the stove at the time, I would have been rushed to the emergency room. I've been using stovetop espresso pots for years so I'm quite familiar with proper usage. It wasn't due to user negligence. Just to be sure, it was tested again with the top screwed on as tightly as possible. And, yet again, it blew off. Luckily, I held a tall stockpot over it and was able to contain the blast, but only seconds before it happened. This product should be taken off of the market, it is by no means safe to use.
