"Gevi's imaginatively named Espresso Machine lands at the high end of the second tier. This single-boiler, 15-bar machine performs essential functions like grinding coffee, pulling shots, and steaming milk at a level that's acceptable for its cost. The mostly plastic chassis won't impress most normal folks, but the lack of gauges, digital menus, and other customization options might actually excite the type of gruff Philistine who screams "BLACK COFFEE" at the barista"
"This budget device is good, but chintzy accessories and a borderline-dangerous frother keep it from being great. Easy to operate if you're comfortable dialing in manually. Grinder is clearly labeled and easy to adjust. Great pressure for its price range. Solid build quality with sturdy metal in the places where it counts. Included accessories are basically unusable. Steam wand is erratic."
The Gevi Espresso Machine is a single-boiler, 15-bar unit that grinds, pulls shots, and steams milk adequately for its price. The grinder is clearly labeled and easy to adjust, and the machine produces good pressure and solid shot performance. The chassis is mostly plastic, though key areas use sturdy metal for durability. Included accessories are low-quality and essentially unusable. The steam wand performs erratically and presents a borderline safety concern when frothing milk. The machine lacks gauges and digital menus, limiting customization, but its straightforward manual controls suit users comfortable dialing in settings.
