Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of FrancisFrancis! X3 Espresso Machine, PallinatoCustomer Review: Built to last Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using my X3 for over a year now (averaging 8 shots per day) and have had no problems at all with performance. It is a very consistant machine, and produces excellent espresso. This machine hasn't needed anything but routine cleaning since I purchased it and it's still running like a champ. I would buy another in a heartbeat.
Description of FrancisFrancis! X3 Espresso Machine, PallinatoManufactured by 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. The friendly attitude of the FrancisFrancis! espresso machines is not just a cosmetic matter. Designed and assembled in Italy, the line?s welcoming qualities extend to the brewing process too, so making espresso in your home is pleasurable, simple, and non-intimidating. One of the company?s slimmest models, the FrancisFrancis! X3 machine is built to work with you whether you?re an espresso novice or a skilled barista. Trim, sleek, and fun to look at, it features a brass boiler and a pump-driven brewing system with 8-9 bars of dynamic pressure. The chrome-plated brass brewing handle maintains ideal temperatures for coffee, while the steam/hot water wand swivels for tidy storage. Brewing can be done with your favorite loose grounds or the eminently simple ESE (Easy Serving Espresso) coffee pods, a pre-measured amount in a teabag-like container. The X3 comes with two brewing handles--one for loose grounds, one for pods--and three baskets to let you choose from ristretto, regular, or lungo shots. A tamper is also included. A good choice for small kitchens, the X3 measures 10-5/8 by 6-1/4 by 11-3/4 inches, so it has a smaller footprint than many models. The water tank is accessed from behind, and controls are on the side. The top of the machine has a handsome mirror finish, adding a pleasing gleam to accent the playfully bright body. Warranted for one year after purchase, the X3 comes with detailed and illustrated instructions for pulling the perfect shot. --Emily Bedard
