This is such a step up from the HardleyNormal coffee machines. Heaps of of steam, consistent pressure, the OPV works well, Shot timer is so simple to use. I was pulling awesome shots in 20 mins. I really cant fault it. You wont be disappointed. Great experience dealing with AB also, easy transaction and fast delivery with good tracking. Luke D. · alternativebrewing.com.au

Value for money4.3
Love the red color and that it's made in Italy. Extremely good value for what you pay especially when you compare to similarly priced machines from Nespresso where quality has definitely gone a bit downhill for the basic machines. The espresso I get from the Y3.3 is a truer espresso (and tastes basically the same as the fancy $5 one I get from my local cafe) than Nespresso which tends to make weak Alex C · illy.com
