Pragmatic - we've never owned an espresso machine and certainly would never consider paying $500+. At $30 we've entered the market, we enjoy the best coffee we've ever made at home, and are now consumers. Without access at this price point we would never have had the opportunity we have now - the possibility to become espresso snobs.
Bought one 8wks ago, bought another today for work, because why not
It will produce a decent coffee (will not taste like poop) as oppose to a delicious coffee but at 20th of the cost.
I wouldn't buy a Bentley supercar when all I would like would be a good toyota to drive (they both drive, yes one is SUPER BETTER than the other, but both drive and as a starter car a toyota is perfect)
Also, despite the deal being dead now, if anyone is still reading this thread, I'm kind of surprised no one directly addressed the 'bar' situation with most home machines. Someone pointed out 9 bars is ideal for espresso - that's actually correct. Others then countered with claims about higher bars from other machines and not addressing what is *actually * happening there: most small home machines like this for the past 10 years or so do 2 things regarding the bars situation:
[1] - that 15 or 19 or 20 bars your machine claims? That's *not* the pressure your coffee is being extracted from the grounds at. Your/these machines do those pressures because that's the pressure at the *pump*, to compensate for the pressure that is typically lost between the pump and the group head (which is where the water meets your coffee for extraction)
so, especially on a brand new machine, what if after the pressure difference you're still at say 12 bars of pressure before extraction? Well, that's where this next part comes in:
[2] most of those same machines now also have an over pressure valve at this point in the process, that brings that pressure down to 9 bars for extraction, and redirects the excess pressure elsewhere. So as long as person A's 15 bar machine and person B's 20 bar machine are working properly and optimally, both should be extracting at 9 bars of pressure.
(but 'more bars' certainly seems cooler and better on the surface for marketing and sales purposes, doesn't it? - just remember, it's an espresso machine, not your cellular phone network

Got one at $30.00, Important to follow instructions under "Before Using Machine For The First Time" on page 10 of the manual. Need to do this to clean the machine and to get rid of the chemical taste felt in my first cup of espresso.
For $30.00 this thing is good.
