I have a Reneka Techno V2 that I bought new in 2003. It has been very good but, finally the steam boiler element failed and also has some arcing at the main fuse. I purchased a decent espresso DE1 v1.1 last year and put the Reneka in a closet. I have no intention of repairing it and am planning to toss it.

That said, it has been such a good machine and there may be others who still have theirs going. I am willing to give it away, I.e. zero cost except shipping. Please contact me via PM if interested.

Thanks very much!
