The Mini Express works great. It’s easy to use and clean (remember not to use soap), and it brews some nice expresso. I’m usually just making coffee for myself, so I bent one of the spouts around so they both go into one larger cup; I’m not sure if you’re supposed to do that, but it worked fine.
A couple of other remarks: The cute cups in the picture aren’t included :(, and at the end of the brew, it tends to “spit” coffee until you remove it from the heat. If your cups are tall enough, it’s not a problem, but otherwise you’ll get little coffee specks all over your stove.

I purchased this Bialetti Mini Express as a present for my husband. We have several Bialetti mokas and are thoroughly satisfied with them so I did not hesitate in purchasing this one. Unfortunately, this model does not make two equal cups of coffee. One expresso is almost full and overly strong. The second cup is one third full and very weak. It is possible to mix the two for a double shot, but alone they are undrinkable. This product is a disappointment.
