So, I was just curious how that thing might work, and for 1 Euro I thought that is not much loss....
Yesterday I tried it:
I filled the inside with water, put the 1st sieve on top, then 2 table spoons coffee, another sieve and then mounted the top again by screwing the handle hard on top.
Plugged it in the power outlet and waited 3 minutes until the coffee collected in the built in cup at the bottom.
And I have to say - not bad. I used an older rest of a Hawaiian blend I brought from my last vacation. The outcome was very rich in flavor with a nice aroma. Not bad for a substitute....
So basically it works like the Italian machines (which I refuse to call "espresso makers", as the outcome is not a real espresso, but a nice, strong black coffee...)
And I think the design is nice, too. It's about 1 foot high and comes with a nice bag. It's easy to clean, too.
OK, enough advertising, just wanted to let you know that this thing exists and that it is a wonderful way to make coffee somewhere else if you don't get proper drink wherever you are....
Cheers

PS.: this is how I look in the morning before I made myself "a face" (make-up), a hairstyle, and a cup of coffee
