Hi all, first post here. Have had a look at existing threads, but thought I would join up as I didn't find an answer.
I am looking to buy a 4-cup stovetop stainless steel coffee maker. It will be a backup for my espresso machine, and for camping/travel.
I was going to buy a Bialetti Venus ($52), until I discovered they are made in China. Then became interested in a Vev Vigano Vespress, but I can't find them anywhere online in Australia. The Vev Vigano Bora (Spanish made) is available online - are they any good? The Kontessa is available in stores for $120 - a bit pricey for me, but is it worth it?
What other brands should I look at?
Any other suggestions of a reasonable quality Italian made machine? And where to buy in store in Adeaide, or order online? Budget is up to around $100 - less is better, but may pay slightly more if worthwhile.
I'm camping on Friday 30/9, so getting one by then would be nice!
Thanks for any suggestions.
