Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

New to using a moka pot, and i was not sure about not using detergent to clean this thing. The top pot part is now a light aluminum, unlike the ones i had in the past. Only downside is the size of the pot itself.

Cons

Either this is a knock off or the manufacturer has horrendous quality control. The lid of the product box inside had been ripped completely off. The * grooves are defective, so the top is only able to partially screw down onto the bottom.

The rubber gasket wears down too quickly, which lead to boiling hot coffee spraying everything!

I got a 3-cup pot in a plain, brown box and inside was an obviously used pot with coffee stains in the upper chamber and a fair... Read More

Competitiveness

Used 4 other brands for our moka pots, but bialetti always is our favorite.

It’s affordable and delicious, better than a french press and drip.

I have tried various other moka pots none compare.

Keep in mind, the 12 cup maker is very large, almost 700ml, which is much larger than other makers sold as "12 cups".
