easy to use, quiet, great frother I DO NOT REVIEW STUFF. Thought I would share this though. Only had it a few days but nothing short of amazing. Wish I could find something wrong with it. Cannot. Easy to use. Makes ridiculous coffee/espresso. Foams like a *bucks place. quick, hot, and truly amazing. frother is astounding. quiet too! replaced an older gaggia. Was upset I couldn’t find the older gaggia. But wow, glad we bought this.
Great Cappuccinos! This is our first purchase of a super automatic espresso machine. We had our first cappuccinos this morning and they were very good. The unit is a great size, looks good on the countertop and is easy to clean. Now, let’s see if it holds up over time. We went through two Brevilles so we have our fingers crossed.
Better espresso than thise expensive coffee shops We love our new Gaggia Velasca Prestige super-automatic espresso maker. It was really easy to use right from the start. We had purchased a different, well-known brand, that was slightly cheaper a few years ago. This machine by far surpasses that one. We used the same coffee beans in both machines and the taste is so much better with the Gaggia Velasca Prestige machine. We are extremely happy with our purchase.
