I used to have multiple e61 type machines and decided to downgrade for the sake of speed, simplicity and easy serviceability. Decided to get into a single boiler and researched several machines and settled on the Classic e24. I have had it for a couple of weeks now and have been very pleased with the results. I have had only a few ok shots and many good to excellent shots. The steaming is pretty good once you get the timing down. I think Gaggia hit the mark on this one for quality and value! Thanks Marc and WLL crew for the thorough previews of the equipment that you carry.
Hi s, My go to recommendation for best value entry-level non-pressurized is the Gaggia Classic Pro E24: www.wholelattelove.com/products/gaggia-classic-e24?variant=43085100843062 It's a true machine grade made in Italy product using standard 58mm portafilter, real boiler. Nothing comes close to this quality at this price. Hope that helps! Marc
