Buyer answer

Who this is for

Good for
compact brew-and-steam setup or brew and steam at the same time.
Estimated drinks in a busy session
5 drinks in a busy session. We estimate this from published details. It is not a timed physical test.
Main downside
The narrow body is deep, and the space needed to fill it from the top is not published. The one-year warranty is dated, so confirm it before you buy.
Check before you buy
The manufacturer does not publish the space needed to fill the tank from the top or move the portafilter.
