Pros: Plastic-free materials, Drink variety and customization
Cons: Warranty and Customer support, Noise level
The metal exterior and heavyweight hardware support a premium impression. Plastic nozzles and internal portafilter pieces are a recurring disappointment, especially at this price.

Cons: Plastic-free materials, Design flaws
