I don't know why these people don't spend a few Bucks (or equivalent) to do a better writeup. They'll tell you that it goes to 350 psi (good grief, that's over 24 bar ... way better than spinal tap) but they won't tell you whether it's a 58mm portafilter, or what the heck the "pre‑heating warming cup function" is.
Anyway, please tell us what it's like if you have one and in the meantime, enjoy your coffee grease!

I have not, but I'm wondering if I can do water jet cutting at 350 psi in case it doesn't work out as an espresso machine?

Under "Features" they lost me at:
"1. Extract coffee grease and high pressure penetration,..."
Everyone knows that a water based lube is best for high pressure penetration.

Price too high but it looks sturdy, probably works well. I like it has an industrial look and a pressuregage.

Looks pretty sturdy and simple enough to use without a manual. Comes with tamper, funnel, gauge and few other bits at a reasonable price. I'd go for it.

Looks like the seller has modified the pressure gauge intake, used to be come out directly from the grouphead,
now you will have to place it on the floor to read the gauge during extraction.
Chinese Levers
Now $200 less with the 350PSI mod, seriously?

I think we're being a little hard on this product/seller. It's a manual lever machine. The pressure you get is whatever you pull/push on the lever. The listing is fairly clear that it's the gauge that goes to 350 full-scale.

Given the weight of the device, I don't know how to preheat it to espresso temperature except by putting it to a Swedish sauna for half an hour or so
Probably a nice decoration for the garage at best
