Aroma cups 6/3

I just got this, and just tried it our for the first time, and I am madly in love with this espresso maker. The look is fantastic, I mean how often do you get to cook with something you're likely to see in the MOMA design wing? However, it's one thing to make a pretty object, but it's another to make a beautiful object that functions better than any other of it's kind: the design is fantastic. It pours without a single dribble, the handle doesn't get hot nor melts like your usual stove top maker, and it's Stainless Steel which means you're not going to leach out any nasty chemicals or flavors. I also love it because it give you the option to make a half batch, allowing this to function as a 3 cup when it's just you or a friend, or a 6 cup when you have company. I almost bought the 10 cup just so I could have the versatility of a 5/10 cup... but i'll never drink that much coffe... I mean it is espresso... which makes the 3/6 size ideal! I had lots of Bialettis when I lived in Italy, but I have a feeling nothing will be better than the espresso I make from my new Stella.

I too have had numerous aluminum stovetop espresso makers over the years, and when another bakelite handle came loose after about one year of daily use, sending its coffee maker into the recycle bin, I decided to try spending a little more for a better product. I finally decided on this one largely because of Marfa's glowing review (and because I thought it downright gorgeous in the photos). Marfa was spot on. This thing functions flawlessly, makes the best coffee I've ever had at home, is easy to clean (still not a trace of calcium sediment after four months of use) and doesn't give me a daily dose of aluminum. Oh, and it's actually more beautiful in person.

I was hesitant to buy this expensive stove-top beauty with fears it would have the dreadful chemically coated interior water chamber that most 'Made in Italy' makers currently have, but, alas, it's pure stainless steel! The unit is quite heavy and feels high quality. You can see that the cylindrical base is welded/attached to a metal plate to conduct the heat properly. Screwing the top piece on is a bit tedious because you have to get the grooves perfectly aligned...The spout pours very nicely, and the handle does get hot, so I use an oven mitt while pouring it into my cup...My coffee tastes good, but I am not a gourmand, so I have no idea how it 'froths' or tastes in comparison with other stove-top makers....All in all, I'm just happy that the metal is quality and not contaminating my coffee with aluminum or chemical coating, as used on some other units that don't use pure stainless steel....

Oh, the one tricky thing that I have yet to figure out completely is that the espresso insert/holder is adjustable inside...It does make it easier to clean, but I have yet to figure out if it is meant to be adjust to add less grounds for a 3 cup vs. a 6 cup...I just push it the farthest down it will go and fill it with coffee to make a strong cup...

This unit makes one large cup of coffee for 1 adult...or probably two of those tiny espresso cups for 2 people.

Shipping from the supplier was fast and it came in probably only 2-3 days max. via Fedex Ground.

I am so disappointed at spending $163 (with shipping) for your Stella Aroma coffee maker, only to receive it

1. obviously broken, the hinge in the top cap is broken, and the cap was crooked.

2. someone had written phone numbers and stuff on the product box, so it had obviously been sent to someone else, and then returned, and you sent it out again to me!

the product was just stuck inside it's box, no instructions, no packaging to protect it, just a card.
