Hello all!
Contemplating purchasing a dual boiler, either the Rocket R58 or QM Vetrano 2B
Is the Rocket worth an extra $200?
Also, should I consider paying an extra $400-$500 for a dual boiler? (comparison to the VBM Domobar Super, Rotary version)
any advice is appreciated
Thanks!!!

From an objective point of view, the Rocket R58 is not worth the additional $200, a rotary DB E61 is and will always be a rotary DB E61 no matter how much you charge for it. or put in another way, you won't gain anything by paying more for basically the same, except for looks and a slightly better build quality ( the r60 being the only exception from this rule)
And in this case The R58 is neither better constructed or prettier IRL. It's still "just" a square polished metal box, with a E61 group attached to the front. So all of these looks pretty identical.
That said, for some it's worth paying the extra amount for the looks or in the profitec 700's and soon to be launched ECM version for the SS boilers etc.
Personally I rather use what I save on a better grinder!

Check out Chris' for some nice deals this week on both products.
I have the V2B EVO and very happy. Do not see the need to spend more than the V2B costs.
