Since those days, they changed from a steel boiler to an aluminum one. I'm not sure if that's an improvement or not, but it does mean that I could no longer get replacement parts. So I got the latest model. Since I found that some changes were more than cosmetic, I'm adding this section to the top of the review. I'm also lowering my rating by one star. In some ways, the quality has gone down by several stars, but in some ways it has improved. However there's no negative effect on the quality of the beverages. The first thing I noticed when I went to plug it in was the new cord. The old cord's design was similar to this Power Cord with the right angles. I can no longer place the unit it its old location and needed to move it several inches further from the wall. It's also a bit awkward having a thick...

The first machine is still going strong, but my ex-wife inherited it, so I am on the second and newer machine. Both are well-made heavy duty units that are used to make 5-6 cups of espresso a day, and the occasional capuccino. The machine does this flawlessly. Those of you who know espresso making know that a good cup of espresso requires these four things: 1. Temperature: Water temperature a bit below boiling; about 190F is right. 2. Pressure: Of upto 200 psi (about 15 atmospheres or bars) 3. Amount: You need 7 grams of coffee per espresso cup. The included scoop should give you the exact amount. 4. Time: About 25 seconds for enough water to flow through the coffee grounds to make one or two cups The Classic does 1, 2 and 3 perfectly. By definition, you, the barista, are in charge of 4. This you achieve through grinding the coffee to the right degree of fineness and...
