Sad to say that the lack of space in our new house means that I need to offer my treasured Izzo Valexia Leva up for sale.
This piece of functional art arrived new from site sponsor Antony at Casa Espresso in October of 2021 and is an absolute joy to use featuring the same famed La San Marco double spring lever system that’s in the commercial Izzo Valchiria, only in a smaller prosumer domestic footprint.
I paid $5,290 for the machine and another $530 to have the Tasmanian Olivewood handles custom made which I will include along with the original black handles, one of which has some dings in it because it was hard to get off the portafilter (see pic of single portafilter handle) when I replaced it with the wood handles.
Included are an IMS B662Th32M basket (works well with an 18g dose) and an IMS shower screen which together I paid $125, the naked portafilter handle shown in the photo of the machine, as well as an IMS shower screen, together with the original Izzo basket and shower screen and original double and single spouted Izzo portafilter handles. Comes in original box.
All up I’ve paid $5,945. Selling for $4,690 so you save $600 over a new machine and $1,255 on what I paid in total. And you will receive a machine that is as near to new condition as you will get, other than buying one new.
Special notes:

Special notes:
- The Valexia requires you to either plumb it in or to purchase a FloJet type pump with a water bottle connected, which is what I have done, and it is easy to set up and it works a treat.
- Cups shown in the photos are not included.
- Available for pick up near Noosa QLD 4567 or I can ship to your door in NSW, VIC, SA, ACT, QLD for an additional $150 (may be a bit more for TAS, WA or NT). It's over 50kg so it does cost a bit to ship.
- As is my habit, I’ve priced this to sell quickly so apologies, but I won’t be open to offers. I try and price the equipment that I sell so that buyers can resell later if they choose, and not drop a cent.
