Turn the machine on, get everything ready, stretch the legs and off you go.
It also takes up less bench space than some other machines and you can fit mugs as well (atm I pour into a 120ml shot glass while still learning).
Without having a comparison other than to a commercial machine in a cafe, I'm happy with my purchase - after the initial learning curve

Edit: I prefer the new-ish switches on the BZ10 as well Anthony. It looks quite funny seeing it with the chorme plated buttons
