Best for
narrow counters · 58mm workflow

KNOWN LIMITATIONS

What the record cannot prove

  • Warranty is retailer-backed and must not be generalized to every seller.
  • No exact cold-start or locked-portafilter depth is published.

Published specifications do not prove taste, noise, durability, thermal stability, mess, or real-world speed. Those require a documented physical test.
