Paid $4300 for this and it arrived early November 2021. I would say it's averaged 1-2 shots a day, though the shot counter won't reflect this due to my extensive flushing, backflushing, and chemical backflushing routines. I do a flush and backflush routine every day that it's used, and chemical backflush every 2 months or so, depending on volume of usage. Out of those shots, 3/4 would be espresso only (no milk steaming). According to my manual water tank usage counter, at the time of writing I've gone through 49 water tanks, (x2.5L per tank = 122.5L of water).
All water has been Sydney tap water which has gone through the included water softener filter in the tank. Based on a pessimistic estimate of the hardness at 50mgCaCO3/L (i.e. 50ppm) and based on the Lelit filter chart which says that the filter is good for 70L at 200ppm, the filter should be good for 280L of water, so it's pretty much half used at the moment. You can find the exact numbers online on the Sydney Water website.
Aesthetically the condition is almost new, there are some visible scratches on the top/front of the drip tray but it's impeccable elsewhere as I've been careful not to bump the machine with the portafilter or milk jug. I honestly cannot find scratches elsewhere after looking with a flashlight for a good 30 seconds. I also religiously wipe it down every day that it's in use. It's stupidly shiny.
Included accessories:
- Everything included in the original box (look it up yourself) including 2 portafilter handles (naked and spouted), single, double, triple, and blind basket, tamper, extra steam wand nozzle (it's 4 holes I believe, the originally equipped one is 2 holes), plumbing kit. The naked portafilter handle is functionally brand new but aesthetically the wood is discoloured in places and there are some dents at the front (the side facing the machine) from me stupidly tapping the tamper against the portafilter before I realised it was causing damage.
Optional free accessories:
- basic milk jug 350mL
- basic rubber tamping mat
Optional paid accessories (make me an offer):
- IMS 22g precision basket B702TCH28.5E
- 58mm basket stainless steel dosing ring/funnel
- BPLUS Stirrer WDT tool
- Decent V4 tamper (head size is 58.35 +/- 0.1mm) - bought for $229 including shipping from a group buy on this website
- set of 7 Decent Espresso ridged baskets (7g 10g 15g 18g 20g 22g 24g)
I have the receipt for the machine and some of the accessories. I also have all of the original packaging for the machine and some of the accessories, so if I was in a very good mood I could ship it (or you could ship it in the future if you decide to sell it onwards)
I've loved this machine and to be honest I haven't been getting too much usage out of it recently because I don't really want to turn it on just to make coffee for myself, and I haven't been entertaining people much recently. I'm moving overseas soon so I thought it would be better to sell it since I don't have any friends or family who are as into coffee as I am, and lending it to them would be more of a (maintenance) burden to them than a gift. I'd rather have this machine put to good use!
Feel free to ask me any other questions.
