3 weeks into using my Bellaza Bellona which was a gift for my 40th I couldn't be happier, working in the construction industry with early start times the quick heat up time has made early morning starts super easy allowing me to make a couple of coffees within 10 minutes of turning the machine on before I head to work. Thge PID controls are very easy to operate and change settings when you change bean styles. Great steam pressure and the solenoid on/off function means you can go from zero steam to the pressure you need to texture milk pretty much straight away. Build quality seems really good and it looks like it will withstand the test of time. Dipacci have also been very helpful when dialing in the grinder that was also purchased from them so the customer service they provide is great. I'd recommend them to anyone looking at buying a quality espresso machine.
