M58

if you are financially able to afford it right now I'm would if thats the one you really want. I upgraded twice sob3 machines. if i would do it all over again I would of gone with the micra instead of the breville, then a ecm classika to the current lucca m58.

One way to beat the heat up tine is a smart plug. Wake up turn it on via phone. By the time you get out of bed and do all the things its ready. On many days im out first thing in the am for a run or play golf, but before i start my turn/drive home I turn it on. It's happily waiting all warmed up by the time i get home. Had a GCP and just upgraded to a Lucca M58 display model. Steam milk is as fast as the coffee brews now. I think and it could be just a ploy in my head to justify the cost, but I think it's more consistent shot for shot.

A Decent. I’m perfectly happy with my Lucca, but software person, I want to tinker with the bits.

Hey! Sorry I never responded to ya Personally, we love the Lucca. It's been a work horse since we bought it. Haven't had any issues so far. I would say my biggest complaints would be the tamper included is not wide enough (still need to find a better one) and for some reason no dosing funnels would fit the included double shot basket. Ended up purchasing a different basket in order to actually fit a dosing ring. LMK if you still haven't made a purchase and I can shoot over exact measurements.
