Miele Coffee maker- why $$$?

[Deckin Around]

I'll start with: I don't drink coffee.
A house my crews are remodeling was just recently updated before the sale to my clients. There was a new coffee machine built into the "morning bar" in their master suite that was on the list to demo. I grabbed all the Sub-Sero bar fridges, ice makers and fridge/freezer drawers and the coffee maker is on my pile...... I just looked it up and it's a $4,500+ coffee maker. Do these things give a happy ending with each cup or ?

Warning: This could strategically turn into a 2FF style LAM for sale add.

NEW MIELE STEAM OVEN

I have a never used or installed Miele steam oven , model 6500. Website says it can cook meat, fish, veggies all at same time in separate trays. Can also disinfect baby bottles, canning jars etc. Sous-vide cooking. Soft or hard boil eggs. Make yogurt. Blanch fruits n vegetables for freezing...

A regular pressurized espresso machine is $$$ so not surprising a totally automated version costs so much....

Personally a Moka Pot or Aero Press works for me. but a real cup of espresso is pretty damn good if you are into it.

The cheapest new SAECO/phillips is a grand.

These they actually make real pressure and every cup is individually ground.

The "puck" units dont compare.

This is a resturant quality machine and if I had room for it Id probably haggle a deal.

They didnt used to cost so much but they were never cheap. I had a buddy pay 2700 5 years ago.

The very cheapest stand alone machine like this is now 1100.

My older SAECO cost 1500.

I stopped reading at 'morning bar'.
Better have good water quality or use di or distilled since I believe they will go to shit just like the 200 bux ones in a few years.

Miele makes the best dishwasher and it's way less than that thing

The wife had to have one of their vacuum cleaners, supposed to be the bomb. Two motors but nothing really special for $500. Had it about a year and was in the shop three times, never did work as good as the last one did. I was at costco one day and saw a WindTunnel vacuum for about a hundred bucks. I bought it, went home and threw the Miele in the trash. Have had the new one for about three years and works great.
