Does anyone know anything about this machine. It looks like a Classic, but I'm a little suspicious because of the low price. On special offer in a UK department store for =A3135 vs the usual =A3200+ for real Gaggias. http://www.houseoffrasershop.co.uk/bin/venda?ex=3Dco_disp-view&invt=3D63055= 8136&bsref=3Dhof Could it be a lesser coffee machine put in a more expensive housing as a one off special for a department store? TIA - Rufus.

From what I can make out it is the internals of a "Coffee Deluxe" put in the casing of a classic. So no 3 way valve and a silly want to boot. But at least a grown up boiler and pump for less than a reconditioned coffee from Gaggia uk. Made as a one of special for a European chain, with excess stock having found its way to the UK as a special purchase item. Should be with me within a week, then all I need is a passable burr grinder (prob the Dualit) and I can retire my Krups and cans of Illy! Rufus.
