If you've purchased one of these little doo-dads, take it back. Atico International is recalling the little devil because apparently the heating element can "forcefully separate from its base during the brewing cycle" and reek havoc.
I should say so. Holy cats. "Forcefully separate"? Doesn't that sort of imply ... explosion?
Care for some espresso? Something in a projectile perhaps?
Shades of Stephen King - attack of the killer espresso maker.
Atico says:
Consumers should immediately stop using the EspressoExpress™ and contact Atico International USA, Inc. toll-free at (877) 546-4835 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the company’s Web site at www.aticousa.com
You can read the recall notice here.
Please advise if the probleim with the EspressoExpress has been corrected and where I might possibly purchase one.
Thank you
