I'm considering getting a v1 Isomac Millenium with the nickel/copper boiler... should I be worried? The unit has only made about 100 shots, it is mint.

How longer should I expect the boiler to last if they have had leak problems... and how common where the problems?

thx

I believe your first question is already answered on the first page of this thread (short answer: it's an HX, so brew water doesn't come from the steam boiler). While theoretically a stainless steel boiler could outlast a copper one, if the espresso machine you're considering is indeed seen so little use, I consider it a non-issue.
