LM GS3

Ernie1 Was……I bought it at 6 months old from a cafe in Ayr. I was going up to Cameron House on Loch Lomond for my 30th wedding anniversary so made a detour. I felt guilty as I snagged it for £2100 after some hard bargaining! I passed it on to someone who really wanted it for the same price. He then swopped it with another forum member who had the manual paddle version but wanted the auto, and I believe each still owns their respective machine nearly 9 years on!

Ernie1 my 30th wedding anniversary

Wow! That’s a huge milestone! Congratulations and best wishes for another 30!

Ernie1 you will get there! 38 for me this year!

CafeNoir 100%. There are more factors at play in my purchases other than just the difference in the cup. For example I get delicious and more consistent espresso out of the Decent but love the Streitman’s looks and the tactile experience of the lever.

dfk41 3o years married? You deserved at least a GS3 and a medal!

tompoland 38 this year…….September 28th, 1984 we were manacled together!

I have just realised what a powerful badge LM is, how many threads start with a coffee machine and end up with years of married life 😀

DavecUK Pffft… Loads of money is when you have a triple grouphead Hydra in the guest room and a GS3 in the office.
