After a quick search I couldn't find a discussion thread on the Rocket Fausto so I thought why not now given, the Rocket has landed........today!
First impression was simply WOW!
Lifting it out of the box needed a second grip, I knew it was an 11kg unit but it took me by surprise.
It's strikingly beautiful and looks the business! Whilst this baby is targeted to the upper end of the domestic market I suspect it would certainly do well in a cafe environment.
It hasn't yet seen a single bean, best to time these moments to coincide with mornings so will send an update later.
My 9 year old and trusty EM480 will move on to greener pastures (passing it and the 6910 to a cousin in the hope he and his wife catch the bug).
I know you can't compare a machine such as this with a dept store appliance like the EM480 but wow, what a difference.
Some images are attached including some with the Fausta side by side with the old EM for size comparison.
I'll send some pics when the Leva arrives next week!
