Excellent, solid espresso machine. I bought mine in The Netherlands from www.espressosicilia.nl and use it for two years now. Nice looking and never had any problem so far. I did a service a year ago. It takes only few minutes to warm up, simple to use, very robust, the water tank is enough for few coffees a day. I leave all my cups on top and the machine keeps them warn and ready for use. It was my first serious machine and I think is more than enough for home use, I also saw people using in small coffe shops. Together with a proper grinder will give you lot of great espressi I am more than happy with this machine and it help me while learning to make and appreciate good espresso.
