Perfect Expresso

In the past 15 years we have owned a DeLonghi, Krups and Saeco.  By far, the Saeco Via Venezia has been the best for the money.  We bought it from a former Starbucks manager who won it in a contest.  It is very user friendly and consistently brews excellent expresso.  I just learned that Costco has this model at $100 as of 03/09.  I don't think you can go wrong with this machine.
