Decent Coffee
My espresso machine is on the brink and isn't worth the cost to fix so I bought this Bialetti as a cheap alternative while I figure out a pump machine. While the percolator makes decent coffee, I am not happy with it as a "replacement" for a pulled shot of espresso. The carafe is only 10 ounces (so each cup is a 1.5 ounce shot). The directions are clear except they leave out how much coffee to use and there isn't a line in the ground basket.

A great product, especially for the money
This is the perfect one-person size percolator, and makes espresso on par with that of the coffee shop - all for only $20 (as compared to hundreds and even thousands of other machines). The device is simple to use, and simple to clean; and while it "only" makes one thing (i.e., espresso), it does so incredibly well. I am very pleased with my purchase, and highly recommend it.

Love it but wish I had bought the bigger one!
I love this product! I bought it for those nights when I want coffee for dessert but don't want to mess with the big coffee maker and it certainly satisfies my coffee craving. The coffee taste great and the product is so simple and easy to use. I did not expect my family to prefer the coffee from my little percolator so now I regret getting the small one. Since getting this I haven't been seen much at my local Starbucks.
