$90 Mokapot Broke After 10 Days

So I love the design of the Alessi Pulcina and it brewed a remarkably good cup of coffee. It took forever to arrive weeks after I received the your item has shipped email. Customer service couldn't tell me anything more than the tracking info. It just got stuck/lost somewhere along the way. In all fairness there was an unprecedented power outage throughout the state so things happen. It was delivered and very well packaged. The product box is beautiful as is the Mokapot. I made several pots -3 - to remove any metallic taste as per the instructions. I used it daily for about 7 days. The brew is incredibly satisfying. I love it! BUT that's where the fun ended. I gently washed and was drying the coffee basket and the funnel part just snapped off. it broke after using ... MoreSo I love the design of the Alessi Pulcina and it brewed a remarkably good cup of coffee.

Illy offered to refund me since evidently I purchased the last one. They said they did not have replacement parts. After many many calls i reached a live person at Alessi and was able to purchase replacement parts. In my opinion after spending nearly $100 on a Mokapot that broke within 10 days of purchase I should not have had to pay anything for replacement parts. But I really like the pot so I purchased several replacement parts in case it breaks in the future. I'm not sure what the availability of these parts will be so I bought extra. If you are able to purchase the Pulcina I would recommend treating it very very gently and buy extra parts. Good luck! It is beautiful but fragile.

A GREAT GIFT

Bought as a birthday gift. The person absolutely loved. This is a great product, fantastic design im told makes excellent coffee. I'm so impressed im going to purchase one. Thoroughly recommend.

Alessi Pulcina

I have wanted one of these for years. Tired of buying cheaper moka pots that I didn't really like “but they were on sale”, I finally bit the bullet and ordered one. Should have done this years ago. I wouldnt have wastedMoney on pots I didnt like and that didnt all work well. The Pulcina Is gorgeous. Makes perfect moka. Looks beautiful. Love it!

Gorgeous and totally performs

I bought this as a mother's day gift to myself. What a smart investment. I love looking at the thing as it's design is very aesthetically pleasing. My daughter loves making moka pots and uses it regularly as do I. It boils up a fabulous moka very quickly. You might be afraid to use it because it's so pretty but it's function matches its form. Easy to use and clean and brews one tasty pot of coffee! We bought the two cup size and it suits us perfectly.

Great coffee, with a few annoying quirks

Overall my mokapot of choice, Would strongly recommend. However, for me it is a one-cup maker: makes one strong Americano with added hot water. Don't know how anyone would get 3 espressos from it. Sometimes hard to get to function on my induction hob, but not sure whether this is the pot or the hob - think it's the pot. Otherwise a perfect, stylish, solid product. Expensive, but built to last.

Have to put it in a saucepan

My Daughter bought it as a Christmas gift and it's very attractive but didn't work on a very expensive Siemens induction hob, so I put it in a saucepan and it did the job, bit disappointing but can only assume it's a bit small for the hob to recognise. Wonder if you can buy a sort of flat plate to put it on. But for those in the same boat do the above and it works. My pleasure 😇

Review of Pulcina Espresso Coffee Maker 3 Cup - Red - For Induction Hobs

Great coffee maker, with a lovely design, a piece of art in itself. This coffee maker is well designed and a great addition to our coffee making equipment.I would definitely recommend this product for the connoisseurs of coffee making .The service was very good and the product arrived on time, and was packaged well . A*

Stylish and functional

With a heavy aluminium build this pot takes a little longer to heat, but the results are an improvement over my previous pot. Looks great, too. No issues using an induction cooker.

Stylish coffee pot

My husband asked me to order this for him. He has many coffee pots but loved the stylish design. Works really well but only seems to make one cup of coffee. I think it would make three expresso cups of coffee but definitely not 3 normal cups. For this reason my husband was a little disappointed and wished he had brought the larger version but other than that he is very happy with this funky coffee pot to add to his collection.
