idk I'd much rather just pour it all into a vacuum bottle than leave it steeping for half an hour.

I think I'd have put the sticker in some epoxy and made it into a magnet for the side lol

Scam site, if a deal online looks too good to be true it probably isn't true.

If you've ever heard him say it has a 3 way Solenoid/valve it's one of the pre 2009 ones. (also notably to anyone else reading this they do make 3 way solenoid ones new they're just called the gaggia classic pro now instead)

And the 2009 model gaggia's are the worse ones where they replaced the 3 way solenoid valve even then 250 is still a decent deal.

Anything cheaper than Zojirushi/Cuckoo/Tiger just isn't gonna be a super long lasting thing but can be a great value for money thing. Hamilton Beach's rice cooker is around 50 bucks and is of acceptable quality for occasional use. It's what I'd recommend if you're not using a rice cooker multiple times a week or if you don't know if you want to use a rice cooker multiple times a week yet.
