Vetrano is $2295
Duetto 3 is $2395

Actually the Duetto 3 is $2500. A stretch higher. Do you feel strongly of one over the others?

For the sake of accuracy it's listed at $2595 at Chris and Clive, $2604 at WLL, etc. However, no price is final until the negotiating is done; and when you're buying a grinder too that gives you some additional leverage.

Sorry I was quoting what I paid last year for a Duetto. But I know Clive does run $150 off at times. So I think you'd be close in price between the 2.

In your opinion(s) if both priced out the same; what's the pro/cons of the Duetto3 vs the Vetrano2B? I mean at this point I just showed my kids the night shots of the V2B ablaze in blue LEDs and the bright red PID and my 9 year old is asking me to teach him make espresso! Lol!

I like the V2B since the meters are placed at an angle that allows you to read them comfortably. Plus, I like the looks better. All other questions, I can't answer

Would like to thank ALL of you for the guidance. Spoke with Mary at CCS; she was fabulous! Landed on the Quick Mill Vetrano and the Baratza Vario. I hope I choose well and that not only I have this equipment for many many years to come; but that they provide me wonderful coffee every day!! It'll be leaps and bounds over the super auto!! Now for the fun part....accessories!!!! Can't wait! Need to call the plumber!
