Summary: 4 Stars
Do not purchase your machine from AMazon. You can get a much better deal on Ebay. You will save over $200 if you purchase it there, and you will still get a warrantied machine. This is a great espresso machine, by the way.
Description of FrancisFrancis! X1 Espresso Machine, Pink
The classic retro-espresso machine from Francis!Francis! Designed by Luca Trazzi. Featuring a brass boiler and a chrome plated brass brewing handle. Comes with both an ESC pod and ground coffee handle.Irresistibly eye-catching, the Francis Francis! X1 espresso machine is a thoroughly modern machine with classic aesthetic appeal. Created by the Italian industrial designer Luca Trazzi, the X1 is smart, good-looking, and, best of all, designed to simultaneously perfect and demystify the home espresso-brewing process.
Made from steel with a powder-coated finish, the X1 features a brass boiler and a pump-driven brewing system with 8-9 bars of dynamic pressure. The chrome-plated brass brewing handles maintain the best temperatures for coffee. The machine brews ideal shots using Easy Serving Espresso (ESE) pods or loose grounds from your favorite vendor. Two brewing handles are included--one for each method--and three interchangeable handle baskets let you pull ristretto, regular, or lungo shots. The top of the X1 features a chrome-plated guardrail to keep warming demitasses in place, and the steam wand cants outward at an optimal angle. A tamper, a coffee scoop, and a starter box of Illy Café espresso are also included.
A good choice for kitchens with roomy countertops, the X1 measures 10-1/4 inches long by 8-1/4 inches wide by 11-1/2 inches high and weighs 15 pounds. Its translucent plastic water tank is accessed from behind, and the control panel is mounted on the front for easy visibility. Like all the Francis Francis! espresso machines, the X1 is made in Italy and warranted for one year after purchase. --Emily Bedard
