It has the 1100 watt 110 volt element for steaming power. Simply flip the switch and boil the kettle and you can make espresso in 5 minutes from a cold start. You can see from the picture the chrome is thick shiny and perfect. Inside of boiler is perfect.
Machine functions perfectly and was recently tested by me. This machine is very easy to use and you can learn how to brew espresso in less than an hour. Once you learn the machine you can make espresso drinks in under ten minutes. This machine has been assembled with the following NEW OLD STOCK parts. The metal boiler and heating element.The machine includes both the steaming top and the shot brewer top, very rare to have both. The machine base has one small repair as can by seen from pictures. There is a small hairline crack in the base which most La peppina have. I had a hole professionally drilled in the base to keep crack from spreading.
This is purely cosmetic and does not affect performance what so ever. This is probably one of the nicest La peppina in existence.
