Amazing little gadget!
My first order with the silver one failed. Had a broken handle after 2 second boil. This one seems much sturdier and better quality! Made great expresso.

Small but mighty
Love this little contraption. Makes about 6 shots of espresso which is great for me and my wifeâs morning coffee.

Do not waste your money!
First one came with a broken handle. Sent it back with no problems. Second one showed up with, you guessed it, another broken handle.Poor design and cheaply made.Buyer Beware.

Not a bad bargain
I like this pot. There are one or two issues with it but given the price point, I still give it a 4.It is a pretty well built piece of equipment. Not steel but cast aluminum. Which is why it is so cheap I am assuming. Although it is aluminum, it heats well and is strong. Again, it is not sheet aluminum but cast. So it is thicker.The threading which joins the two halves together is a bit rough. I am not familiar with the process of manufacturing something like this but I assume the threads are created on a lathe. With use I am sure the threads will smooth out. But for now it is a bit fiddly getting them to line up and when you do, it squeaks loudly from the rubbing. Maybe I will apply some graphite powder or a food safe oil to help it along. This issue is no big deal breaker and it does not affect function.However, what does affect function is the leaking. The seam leaks when I pour. Right where the two halves come together. I’ve tried a little silicone lube on the gasket and that didn’t work. You know how sometimes you need to keep a rubber gasket greased to prevent it from drying out and to help the seal? That was my thinking. But it didn’t work.I am not sure what to do about this problem. Maybe as the threads smooth out and naturally wear in, the leaking will stop. Maybe it will get worse.That being said, the coffee this thing makes is delicious. I use a dark espresso from New England Coffee Roasters. Fill the basket to the top, about 4 tbsp. Level it off and brew. It took me about 6 minutes on medium high heat to full brew. Split into two mugs with 1 tsp of sugar each. Such a smooth cup of coffee.I’ve used percolators before and didn’t like them. The coffee always burns. That wasn’t the case with this. I am guessing since the coffee separates from the heat once it reaches the top vessel, it solves that issue. It can only get so hot after all and when it does it moves upward away from the heat.I am coming from an espresso machine. I have limited counter space and ditched my espresso machine for this. Is this as good as espresso? I would say, possibly. They are two different types of coffee after all. You don’t get that delicious crema with a moka pot. Is an espresso snob (I used to be) going to like this as much as their espresso machine? No. They need to justify spending $1000+ on their equipment. Have you seen those guys on the espresso sub reddit? It’s an espresso circle jerkI went to espresso over drip coffee because I like dark, strong, toasty coffees. I’ve never found a drip coffee that did it for me. My espresso machine was very inexpensive. $200. And it made a fine drink. I honestly believe that a moka pot comes really close to an espresso. At least as far as smoothness and having a strong flavor. I mean I am no coffee scholar. Just as a normal coffee drinker who needs something better than a drip coffee (opinion) I would never go back to an espresso machine or drip. I’ve tried it all. French press, pour over, Aeropress, drip, espresso and even Keurig. A moka pot is a great setup for me.Coffee is very subjective though. And all it takes is too much grounds or a poor grind or too much heat and you end up with a bitter cup. I can nail a great cup consistently with a moka pot. And a cuban style preparation is the bomb.I would caution against lifting the lid while the pot is on the heat and actively boiling. It makes a mess and you could possibly burn yourself. Remove it from the heat for about six seconds first if you must look inside. Which you sometimes need to do. Learn from my mistake.And they aren’t joking about moving the pot to the edge of the burner with the handle hanging away from the heat. It gets wicked hot. And you risk melting it. But it won’t be a problem if you just get in that habit. I use my smallest burner. Which is something you should do anyhow. Don’t use a burner that is too big for your pot.I would also caution against leaving the coffee or the grounds inside for too long. All it takes is a couple hours and the acid could weird up the aluminum. You probably wouldn’t have to worry about this with steel but you do with aluminum. When you pour all of your drink just knock the grounds into the trash and rinse everything quickly. This thing is easy to clean and the grounds come out nicely with a sharp knock on the trash can.I really like this pot and depending on the leaking issue, I don’t foresee having to upgrade to anything expensive. Such a good deal for such a great cup of coffee. One of my better purchases.

Absolutely love it (note, however, the meaning of “cup” on the box isn’t a standard fluid measure)
A friend gave me the “6-cup” version of this espresso maker a couple months ago. How did I live so long and stay unaware of this gem?! Since I started using it I haven’t turned on my drip coffeemaker once. Every morning I make espresso, heat some milk and mix them together to enjoy cafe con leche. I’ll never go back to drip coffee.The construction of the IUMSA product is simple and elegant. Solid aluminum pieces that are easy to assemble, take apart, clean. Just ensure (according to the directions in the box and contrary to what some reviewers claim) not to tamp down the coffee grounds in the basket too densely. Also, ensure to use very fine grounds. Coarse grounds won’t give you a proper espresso because of insufficient exposed surface area on the grounds to the steam that is forced up through them to brew the espresso.Finally, note that the “6-cup” version holds 1-1/8 cups of water in its reservoir (9 ounces/265 ml) while the “12-cup” version holds 2-1/4 cups of water (20 ounces/530 ml). I assume that the manufacturer, when it refers to “cups” is referring to a small dash (1.5 ounces) of expresso.I upgraded to the “12-cup” version this week so I don’t have to make multiple batches of coffee in the morning. Am very pleased all around with this product so far. Well made, simple to use and clean, and produces fantastic coffee.

Great Coffee but Not Very Durable
I recently purchased the MUSA USA B120-42T Aluminum Stovetop Coffeemaker 3-Cup, and I have mixed feelings about the product. While it makes great coffee, it’s not very durable.Firstly, the coffee that this stovetop coffeemaker produces is amazing. The taste is rich and strong, and the aroma is heavenly. The design of the coffeemaker is also very sleek and stylish, which is a nice bonus.However, the durability of the product is a concern. The handle and knob of the coffeemaker are made of plastic, which feels flimsy and cheap. After a few uses, the plastic started to crack and break, which made it difficult to use the coffeemaker safely.Additionally, the size of the coffeemaker is quite small, and it only makes 3 cups of coffee at a time. This may be a concern for those who drink a lot of coffee or entertain guests.Furthermore, the cleaning of the coffeemaker is not very easy. The bottom of the coffeemaker is difficult to clean, and the coffee grounds tend to get stuck in the filter.Overall, I would recommend the MUSA USA B120-42T Aluminum Stovetop Coffeemaker 3-Cup for the great coffee it produces, but not for its durability. If you’re looking for a coffeemaker that will last you a long time, you may want to look for a different option.

Okay
I needed a new moka pot and bought this one. I bought the 3 cup one but it was too small for what I need. I needed the 6 cup one. They all work the same. I’m keeping it for a spare. Check the size before ordering. The cups are the size of a small espresso cup not a regular cup of coffee.

Es la segunda cafetera italiana que compro aquà -la primera la devolvà pues no funcionaba bien-.Esta cumple, hace el café en muy poco tiempo y sale muy bien, evapora toda el agua y si la acomodas correctamente en la hornilla, el mango permanece a salvo. Es una buena cafetera a muy buen precio y, además, está bonita.

Daniel Aguirre –
Es resistente. Es bonito. Es barato. Las tazas que hace son la medida de taza de café expreso. No se imaginen que es para una taza de 255ml. Es para disfrutar hacer el café de un metodo artesanal, con calma, es para quien guste de hacer toda la ceremonia de elaborar una bebida que se disfruta tranquilamente.

Rende 3 ristretos, 2 expressos, 1 xÃcara de chá. Extrae bem o café. Não como uma Bialetti de 6 xÃcaras, que extrae uma pressão muito boa com a máquina original clássica. A aleação dos metais é outra. Mas funciona muito bem esta prquena e prática cafeteira para uma ou duas pessoas. Esfria rápido e pode ser reutilizada em um curto tempo.
