What people like
The machine is frequently recommended as an excellent prosumer choice, offering a compelling balance between entry-level and high-end models for home baristas. It is often praised for its compact size, robust build quality, and classic E61 aesthetic. Reviewers highlight its ability to produce café-quality espresso, supported by features like PID temperature control and a unique heat exchanger system designed for enhanced temperature stability. While generally considered user-friendly with an intuitive interface and often quiet operation, some users note a learning curve, particularly regarding temperature management for optimal consistency.
Pros

Cons
Temperature Management: As a heat exchanger, it can require specific temperature management, such as a cooling flush, and some long-term users report temperature stability issues despite PID.
Limited Customization: Offers less control and customization compared to higher-end dual boiler machines, especially regarding flow control.
Drip Tray Design: The metal bar/grill style drip tray can feel springy or awkward to remove/replace, and its open design may not appeal to all.
Hot Water Wand: The hot water wand's placement can be awkward and inconvenient.
