Re: Gaggia Classic still available at Costco.com for $399.99 - WOW!



I've had more experience with Spanish machines, and I like their fit &
finish. The Futurmat, Visacrem, et al, are some of the best thought out
designs I've ever seen.

If you think about it, the new Silvia boiler kit is a good example of how
some Italian companies look after "legacy" customers, since it's "plug
compatible" in all respects with older machines. Having just dissected 2
Chinese made machines I have a great deal of respect for Italian design
and engineering.
