  • Boiler recommendation?

    Does anyone have any thoughts on what I might look for as an alternative to a BES920?

    My 920 is priced at $680 to fix so I'm considering a new machine.

    I really like the boiler (hate the sound of thermoblock) and I think I like the dual boiler too.

    Can I have some ideas please of other machines to consider? Budget would be $1500.. have a grinder.

    What does that repair estimate cover? Does it need a new steam boiler? Nothing else in the machine would cost anything near that to replace, even a 5-8 year service where all consumable and worn parts would be changed.

        Thanks, yes. I'll reply in the other thread regarding the repairs.

        I suppose here I want to solve whether I buy a new machine and potentially find an alternative to Breville. I've been very happy with the machine but my first repair/rebuild came after two years, and now this.
