I love that this narista system allows me to make a whole caraffe of coffee and allows my husband to make his espresso at the same time.  he enjoys espresso's and I like regular coffee so this gives us the best of both worlds without having a bunch of different machines sitting all over the counter.
 Since receiving this item I have learned to really love espresso also especially sincespecially since you can use the frauthor and make a sweet whip to put on top of your coffee or espresso that's all. This really is a cool machine and and I have had several visitors come over who uh wanted me to make them something to drink Just because they wanted to see how it worked. This will be on my counter for years to come I'm. I love it.
