I had buyers remorse for a few days, for all the reasons: wasteful, feeling locked in to the "club", grandiose advertising (they call their coffee flavors "grand crus"). But the key is the ease of use and uniform high quality. For a latte, this can't be beat. One shot is 60 cents US, which means my giant latte in the morning costs $1.20. I too was in love with the aerocinno, but ended up not buying it and I'm so glad didn't. I have a rechargeable wand frother and a microwave, which allows for a super quick heat, whiz and rinse sequence. The aerocinno would require a real cleaning, takes longer, and doesn't give me control of the heat. Many reviews complain that it doesn't get hot enough. I guess I drank the cool-aid, but I kind of love this thing for now. It has streamlined my morning routine to a point where I really think the markup is worth it, for me anyway.

Moka pot = no/minimal pressure = not espresso. Aeropress is not technically an espresso maker either, but gets very close with a rich smooth strong brew.
