Title: Manual is better
Review: I have owned several semi automatic espresso machines, and they have always developed problems...Maybe because I drink a lot of coffee. Yes, with the La pavoni it takes quite a while to work out your grind and tamp, but now I can do it half asleep. No, you can't make multiple cups at once, yes, the chrome finish doesn't hold up,you have to remember to turn it off, the pressure has to be down before you can refill it, but...I have not been able to kill it, and I can kill almost any electronic device or machine. Look for a refurbished model and the price becomes almost reasonable. I wouldn't buy anything else, and I have been drinking espresso for 25 years.
Is the review positive or negative?
