I bought a stainless steel 51mm tamper instead of using the plastic one the machine comes with

It's stainless steel which looks nice and is easy to clean

I've owned low-price home Capuccino machines for decades, so I know what to expect (and what to avoid).This one is attractively designed (mostly stainless steel) and seems to have a stainless steel boiler.

I saw that some machines explode...this one is encased in a stainless steel case

The silver color is sleek and matches our stainless steel appliances well

Not much counter space and everything needed is shipped together...although I would recommend buying the little stainless steel cups for frothing creamers

I've been using this machine for like a week or so, and I'm very happy with the quality, size, stainless steel looking and most important the espressos I'm getting with it
