What espresso machine with a 1300 Euros budget.

Hi.
A friend asked me to suggest a machine, having a budget of about Euros 1300 max.
He used to have a Silvia before.
Can you help please?
Theodore.

PV Lusso + Vario + supplies would fit the budget.

PS. buy in Euro's while the fun lasts.

More info please!

How many coffees does he have a day? Espresso only? Milked based coffee like cappuccinos and lattes? Does he make multiple drinks at a time? What grinder does he have? What didn't he like about the Silvia - more specifically, what does want that the Silvia couldn't deliver?

If this is all too hard then just tell him a Ponte Vecchio Lusso 2 Group and be done with it!

I suggest using search engine like http://www.idealo.de

I have managed to find Isomac TEA quite cheaply. (Espresso tend to redefine meaning of the word cheap :roll: :lol: )

How true! :lol:

Congratulations on finding a good deal on the Tea, Klemen. While I have not visited Domzale, I have been to Ljubljana. Very pretty area.
