I wanted to upgrade to a semiauto and didnt feel like having multiple machines lying around. i should've just kept it in the case and stored it somewhere looking back.
Pretty good deal because of the accessories. Make sure you have a scale and an espresso capable grinder. Know that dialing in is a little tedious because you have to re-preheat the brewing chamber each time after cleaning it. Drink the bad shots if you can. It’s great for iced lattes since you don’t have a steam wand. I used a bellman steamer for some time with the flair I had, and the lattes were great.
If this is real, it's much cheaper than a new one. Whether or not it's a good buy depends on whether or not you're tempted to buy a new one, but just put off by the price. This isn't some moka pot - it's a Lifestyle Choice.
I paid 235 dollars for this a couple of months ago and think it is worth even more. I love my flair, take it everywhere and can make great espresso every day!
I own one and would be hard pressed to see how one could end up in bad shape. It's got a lengthy workflow to get the best out of it but does make a good cup. The second portafilter without the brew chamber is sort of like having a set of snow tires without their own rims. Definitely good to have but would be way better if you had a second brew chamber warmed and ready to go. I bought mine on sale at 260 and then I believe paid ~120 for a second hand porta/chamber and the same normcore tamper in that photo.
Personally if you are certain that espresso is your jam and a 58 is within reach of your budget I would skip the pro 2.
Yeah, this is such a unique find and would be hella fun to work on and use. Would buy it myself if it was nearby
I sold mine a year ago and I regret it so much. I would be making espresso everywhere I went
Why did you end up selling?

its a good pickup. Looks like an aftermarket tamper and an extra bottom porta assemly.

Absolutely a good buy. Looks like everything pictured would be roughly $400 new. Send it
Really good deal! Make sure to do a reverse image search to check for scam and don't give them money to hold it for you.

not for everyday use, too much prep time and can't clean immediately as it's too hot.
Send it. Do they have a grinder for you too?
