Amazon.com Product Description

Stunningly retro with its painted aluminum body and polished base, this 900-watt 16-bar pump espresso and cappuccino machine makes it simple to brew cafe-quality coffee drinks at home. The unit's brass boiler and group has external strength, so it won't run out if the boiler runs out of water, and its dual-system temperature control heats quickly for brewing coffee then instantly steaming or frothing with no wait time in between. The machine's two professional brass filter holders accommodate either ground coffee or ESE coffee pods, while its Accu-read gauge and flip-switch controls ensure trouble-free, user-friendly operation. Other convenient features include a powerful hot water and steam supply, a safety thermofuse and steam pipe protector, electric heating with electronic circuit protection, a removable 44-ounce water reservoir with water-level indicator, a cup warmer, and an easy-to-clean polished drip tray. Hand-assembled in Spain and available in a variety of fun colors, the espresso machine measures 11 by 9-3/5 by 13-3/5 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

Simply stated this was a total rip off. Could not get anwers from the company or repairs. They left the face of the earth. Buy only name brand, but you need to be very careful there also.
