This is my third stove-top espresso maker. They get heavy usage from me and I couldn't live without one. Now, keep in mind that it is technically a percolator and doesn't really make espresso, but you can't beat it for great coffee flavor.This design is sleek and has a small footprint, especially as compared to an espresso machine. This pot is attractive enough to be left out of the cupboard while not in use. It's also much easier to clean than a machine, however, the stainless steel needs to be wiped down after washing or it will show spots - as all stainless steel does.You can adjust the strength of the coffee by adjusting the grounds-to-water ratio to suit your taste. Also play with the fine-ness of the grind of coffee. As I use it to make lattes at home, I use a fairly fine grind and don't fill the water chamber all the way up to produce a stronger brew. You will notice a few grounds toward the bottom of your cup of coffee, but that is customary and not intended for drinking.My past espresso makers have all tended to "spit" a bit toward the end of the perc, which makes for a messy stove. The particular upward lip design on this pot prevents that from happening. Use care not to get grounds in the threads between the chambers to avoid dripping while pouring.A couple of other notes: this handle really does stay cool enough to use right after the perc is done. I did receive the spare gasket - it was tucked into the upper chamber.Highly recommend!

I bought this because it was inexpensive and I wanted to try a stovetop expresso maker...also it is not aluminum...I have had it a week, and I'm really pleased...it doesn't make real expresso, but it does make great coffee..even from my cheap storebrand ground coffee (I regrind to get finer)...It's simple, it cleans up well, it's all around a fine coffeemaker.

The Holstein makes a great cup of strong coffee but it's not espresso.Its very easy to use and clean and it works just as fast as any automatic drip with better results.After a few tries I was thinking of returning it but it would be great for camping or as a back up because all you need is water,coffee, and heat and you can't beat the price. So it looks like I'll be spending to get that 9 bars to get my true espresso but I will keep this one in the stable.
