I hesitated on other similar products (and much cheaper). I do not regret my purchase (19.90) No beards on the welds. no rough or sharp welds. shiny perfect. The base is very stable even completely filled and runs perfectly (competitive products do not rotate. Yet it is very convenient to use). there is a felt base of the unit. the base is in curved metal, not plastic. The product can seem so similar to other chinoiserie but its price is justified.
The capsules come out perfectly (one at a time, easy grip) on the bottom and the top, which possibly can mix the capsules. just a pity that the same metal product does not exist in 8 columns (black aluminum only). I took 2 of the blow. Happy with my purchase.
