 Excellent coffee -- read update ;-)Jan 30, 2006
By J. Offenbach
1/20/06 First reviewed: I received this as a gift and had about twenty wonderful cups of moka from this cute little electric machine, but then one day in the third week of ownership, steam went a'flyin outside of the moka maker instead of into the top chamber. I called customer service and was given a run-around, ugh. I was told that without a receipt I could buy the replacement unit for around $40 plus shipping. She said that most of their products have a 30 or 60 day warranty, which surprised me greatly. Since I'd owned the product for less than 30 days, I figured I was still in the warranty time any way one looked at it, but I was wrong. With no receipt, no exchange from DeLonghi. Well, I tried to use the unit after really tightening the top and bottom together and the escaping steam abated. The next week, the shut off valve on the heating unit started making a terrible noise and the unit wouldn't even start. It would be triggered within a few seconds to shut off, so I had nothing at all brewing. Aha, I regained my smartness finally, and took the item to Bed Bath and Beyond, and they were extremely gracious in having another sent to me because the store didn't have it in stock. I hope that when this replacement arrives in a week or two I'll love it again, but I hope this time it's a more long lasting relationship. I'll recommend that you buy this from Amazon because the price is substantially less but be sure to keep your receipt even if you register the warranty!
UPDATE 2/21/07 The replacement unit has been working flawlessly for a year now and it's used on a daily basis. I'd give it another star!
UPDATE 1/16/09 Another year has almost passed and this is still working great. With proper care, I think it will outlive us all!

Effective, compactNov 16, 2003

What I initially liked about this machine is the fact that I could use it off the stovetop and it really is not a counter hog--I bought it for my office, actually. I was surprised at how piping hot the coffee can get in it. All in all, it works well. Realize, too, this moka brew is definately a step down in flavor from traditionally brewed espresso (from a pump-driven machine). I recommend it.

It has a big flaw, but I love it anywayAug 09, 2006
By Candypantz
I'm on my 2nd Electric Moka machine. The first one died when the plastic piece on top cracked near the handle and it began to leak. I realize now that it cracked from tightening the top piece by rotating the plastic handle rather than grabbing the metal mid-section. I also realize that I began tightening it extra tight when the rubber washer inside started to wear out. So that's the deal. Replace the washer when it gets ragged and don't screw the pot together with the plastic handle. Do these two things and the machine will last ages. BTW, it makes FANTASTIC espresso, is easy to clean, is compact and very cute. I love it!!!

 Great product with easily obtainable spare partsSep 04, 2007

So I needed something for making moka espresso in my classroom, and this turned out to be the thing. Several reviews mentioned the possibility of breaking the polycarbonate top. I am happy to report that the top, the gasket, and the top filter are all interchangeable with the Bialetti 6 cup stovetop model. So gaskets will be cheap & easy to come by, and if I manage to break my poly top, I can pick up another Bialetti and use the top from that.
Woo hoo!
~~~Update~~~
It's two years later and I am STILL quite happily using my Alicia. I've replaced the gasket a couple of times, but that's it. Excellent little product.

Bialetti 6-cup top will replace broken plastic topNov 18, 2009
By Ruby Coffee
When the transparent plastic top breaks (and with constant use, it will) you can simply replace it with a more sturdy top from a Bialetti 6-cup stove-top model like this: Bialetti Moka Express 6-Cup Stovetop Percolator. Don't throw it all away. No need to buy an entire new one. I dislike the build in redundancy of some modern products, so I'm glad to be able to share this tip.
