    did you get the aria at the end?
    there seem to be different versions around.
    i like the 20cm width but some website state 250cm width.
    little bit confusing with the different variants of the aria

    Caffeinator cool thanks for sharing your insights. Again, as a sign of goodwill, and also as no doubt the importer is currently following this thread, I am not going to go into the specifics of the full experience at this stage. I trust this will be resolved amicably by all involved.

    symmetrica Having seen many hundreds of these in service, I can assure you that your experience is not at all typical of this machine which is amongst the very best dual boiler e-61 machines in existence- and I have seen most of them.

    If you paid $5100 for it, you paid well above the going price. Did your reseller just pick up a carton and hope for the best or was the machine bench-tested/commissioned prior to collection? This is when minor problems such as yours get addressed and what you pay for when you purchase from a reputable operation. If the reseller was too lazy to test or did the "It's tested at the factory/It's tested by the importer", then you chose poorly.

    Might I suggest that you also contact the importer: Site sponsor Casa Espresso. Antony will no doubt be keen to hear more.

    Where I am at moment with this is that I am working with my reseller to get a refund. That's not the experience one should get for a supposedly premium, brand new $5100 coffee machine. There are many issues that i don't wish to detail publicly at the moment, as my focus is to get a refund and move on with my life and do a better job at researching my next coffee machine purchase.

    Cutout- not right. Check that the tank inlet hose correctly located and that the tank has water in it and with a correctly installed float. Did your supplier bench test it?

    Yucky transfer? Seriously? Take it off. It's ugly anyway #1stworldproblems

    Symmetrica, I would speak to your supplier, I am sure they will make the cutting off midway right.

    I am a new owner (matter of weeks) of Izzo alex duetto vi and I'd say I already have regrets with this purchase... brewing randomly cuts off midway... and to my horror this morning, I noticed the stick-on letters glued to the body of the machine, designating brand name, started to come off, leaving gummy residue on surface... why not use heat resistant glue on $5000 machine? Honestly I initially thought those letters were pressed into the metal....

    Not sure if they are on the ground yet here in Australia.

    Rotary pump is nice but it doesnt have a plump in option which does lessen the benefits of a rotary pump.

    In the Izzo compact range we have :
    Vivi PID https://www.casaespresso.com.au/izzo-vivi-pid.html

    or our new Vivi DUETTO (dual Boiler) at almost the same price as the Aria
    https://www.casaespresso.com.au/izzo-vivi-duetto.html

    Alex PID is slightly larger but has a rotary pump and plumb in option

    Nurri GTO models are still pre production units at the moment.

    We have our first shipment of the Nurri Leva on the water.

    GTO will be towards the end of the year

    Budget would be around $4k at this stage.
    I haven't come across that machine before, I'll check them out, thanks!

    Yes, true, still looking at other options around, however the compact size initially caught my eye.

    Might still be a little while. They're not in production yet. Nurri is concentrating on Leva SA at present.

    What's your budget? The Nurri GTO has pressure profiling for around the same price, Antony at Casa Espresso could get you one.

    Not cheap for a small HX machine with only a 1.5 boiler $4100- $4300.
