Originally my wife and I had a buget of $200, so I was looking at the best way to go and it was looking like:get a good grinder and stick with plunger coffee for now.
Today I was at Good Guys and they said they would do the Sunbeam EM6910 with the Sunbeam EM0450 grinder for $660 cash. Going by RRP it should be around$1000. I have almost convinced my wife of going for this deal, but I have a few questions.
Is this as good a deal as the sales guy made out?
Is the EM6910 the kind of machine that will last if taken care of?
What else will we need eg tamp, cleaning equipment etc?
Will this unit be too complicated to use for people who have never used an espresso machine before?
Sorry for all the questions, but if this is a great deal and the EM6910 is a good reliable machine, I think Ill be able to convince my wife to let us get it.
Thanks again for your help.

..each time being out of action for weeks. By the time it went in for the second time we were already well into our coffee journey and decided to upgrade at this point.
