I'm a bit of a coffee snob, and a decent machine in the under $1,000 category is always of interest.
I bought the Capresso in 2003 and it lasted me over 8 years. But the reviews of their customer service lately left me concerned about buying another one.

If this lasts me 5 years, I consider it a good purchase. I work from a home office and having good coffee is a nice way to start (and continue) the day.
