I had a Livia 90 for years! When I finally upgraded I went with a plumbed in LaSpaziale Vivaldi II. Coming from a Livia I REALLY appreciate:
1. Temperature stability! I can keep the VII on all day and get a great cup. The Livia just keep getting hotter and hotter . . . then the internal water take would heat up . . .
2. Big drip tray. (Livia owners should appreciate this!)
3. Plumbed in water.
4. Easier cleaning of the screen. Way easier!
