레버프레소 프로 트래블 키트 3.0

Nice expresso machine but in the kit de need a réal tamper, not a plastic piece.
Also I think on top of the machine it need a taller edge to fill the water

Build for people who doesn’t mind the manual espresso work flow, and to those that want an espresso maker for travels, it rivals even the flair 58 with a smaller footprint.

Pros:
- build quality/materials seems good
- good looking

Cons:
- travel kit bag is huge and very heavy. the stand base is the most heavy element
- difficult to pour water inside the thing without spilling
- can't really use it without getting burned each time to some degree when emptying the basket

What it needs badly is a portafilter interface. Without it it's a nice looking toy thats all.

First of all, to be completely fair, I can get a really nice espresso out of this machine. Obviously it depends on the coffee beans and the grinder setting, but I easyly got nice body and beautiful crema out of it. I'm super satisfied with this purchase.
There are a couple of design flaws though that are really easy to address and only one of there compromise the user experience.
1) The round hinged part from the stand that hold the machine doesn't close fully. It still does it job so it doesn't matter as much and it's esthetically unpleasant only. Not an issue if you want to buy the machine without the stand.
2) When you are using the machine on the stand, when the levers are close to the bottom, they hit the cup. I did this once, knocked the cup off and spilled all my coffee. A slightly shorter levers or cup should solve the problem.
Apart of these points it's a very smart design and really well put together.
I totally recommend this machine.
