Product Description
With the invention of the stovetop espresso coffee maker, espresso - long a staple of Italian cafés and bars - became available for home consumption. As the cold water in the lower chamber heats, the pressure from its boiling forces the water up through the coffee grounds. In just a few minutes, espresso emerges from the spout into the upper chamber as the pot hisses and gurgles. Remove the pot from the heat and let it stand until the lower chamber is releasing only steam.
The lower water tank holds a metal filter and features a safety valve. The upper tank fills with perfectly brewed coffee. Now Italy's favorite aluminum coffeemaker can go to work in your kitchen, making delicious espresso on gas or electric stovetops.

I have alot of experience with stove top espresso units, and was really disappointed with this item. It leaked significantly no matter how tightly it was put together. Additionally, after only one month, the handle broke off, with not much pressure on it trying to take the unit apart.

This is the worst espresso coffee pot I have bought. It leaks, it spits. Also, after the pot has cooled down, it still is almost impossible to remove the filter to make a new pot. I would rather go without espresso than using this pot. DON'T BUY IT
