  • Lelit Elizabeth V3

Selling my Lelit Elizabeth v3 along with a few accessories. Bought brand new from Bella Barrista in 2021, machine has served me very well, has been well maintained and looked after.

Machine is in excellent condition, with very few scratches. I have had a protective mat over the top of the machine where cups sit which has worked wonders. It is still nice and shiny and looks like it did when I got it.

I have back flushed the machine at least fortnightly since getting it. Maintenance wise two small parts have been replaced on the steam boiler and the OPV was switched at an early stage.

I used tap water initially in the machine (30 TDS - lucky to have soft water in Scotland) and when doing so I regularly flushed the steam boiler to avoid scale. For last year or so I have been using a Zero water jug and remineralising as per the well known Pavlis water recipe. I have no concerns re scale in this machine, and don’t think there is any need to descale - it works well.

Coming with the machine is the provided Lelit Baskets (4 in total including blank one), a 17g La Marzocca basket, an 18g VST (one I use), dosing ring that sits outside basket, Lelit spouted portafilter, Rocket bottomless portafilter, shot mirror and a tamper. I may have other bits and bobs I can throw in.

I am willing to ship at buyers expense and have all original packaging (Lelit box then also a box to put that inside with protective foam) - this is how it was delivered to me. Also willing to meet somewhere within a reasonable distance.

Any questions or more photos wanted just ask. Looking for £600.

    Small observation: You don’t say where abouts in the country the machine is :-)

    That would probably help - thanks for pointing out. I’m based near Dundee, Scotland.

    Good morning Ando.

    Except for back flushing, does it need any other type of maintenance? Suppose you need to change the group gasket once in a long while. Did you keep the original shower screen? And how is the steam knob working? I know people have a tendency to tighten it to hard, at least in the beginning.

    Is the price negotiable? I’d be keen for an upgrade from my Lelit PL41TEM, which served me well for the last 4 years. I am a bit unsure of buying a second hand machine which is out of warranty and has to be shipped to London.

    Thank you

    Now that I see there is another determined potential buyer on the other forum, I would be happy to pay for the asked price, if you haven’t yet given it away. :)

      oddbean If it falls though, I have one that’s hardly been used…e.g. 6 weeks use only. It was light use as well because I had 3 other machines on the go at the time. It was the original I got and bought up to the latest spec (as now being sold). I came up with all the changes I wanted Lelit to do. I just have too many machines and need to thin the herd.

      Lelit did do another change which ended up being problematic, the placement of the expansion valve directly on the boiler. I didn’t know they were going to do this and it was too late to stop them. Mine doesn’t have this..which could well be a benefit. I had a different idea, which could be implemented on the machine if ever required (I’m happy to show you). In the meantime, I am happy with the original expansion valve and especially the placement. Contact me when you find out what’s happening with this. I am 18 miles from London and would require you to collect from Byfleet in surrey (for safety and it allows you to see the machine).

        oddbean Morning - very sorry for the slow reply but I had a golf outing yesterday (just about warmed up now) followed by a dinner so was off my phone all day.

        Machine sold on another platform quite quickly, and payment was made last night. Thanks for the interest anyway!

        RajT - Obviously this one has been sold (as you can see). But you can buy a new one in the UK for around £1.1k. Bella Barista sells them - just google it up.

          RajT can confirm it’s not available anymore.

            DavecUK if you’re still interested in selling let me know, I’m looking at an Elizabeth but haven’t quite saved up enough yet and BB have just sold out last I checked. I am also based in Byfleet funnily enough!

              thetravdog The Elizabeth went a while ago, but I am looking to move on some other machines.

              I have a Bianca V1 (spoken for)

              I also have some other machines in boxes, I can’t remember offhand what they are at the moment, but most are dual boilers and in as new condition. If you are in Byfleet, then it’s easy for me, so I can look to sort something out for you if you are looking for dual boiler machine.

              Drop me an email. I di need time though, because I like to fully test a machine after what might be years of non use stuck in a box.

                DavecUK that’s very kind of you, I’m in no immediate hurry to purchase anything, just know that I want to upgrade my bambino plus to something more capable and reliable
