What Technivorm Moccamaster KBGV owners say

not a thing broke or failed us, it just keeps on going like a champ
@patrickurey5939 on YouTube
The coffee (on average) that it produces easily matches what I was producing with my Commandante and Orea V3.

It makes no sense to pay top dollar for a machine that doesn't even work right. I ended up going with the BPB instead.
