Description

The 9090 isn't just the first stove top espresso coffee maker in history: it was also first object for the kitchen after the 1930s, the first of many Compasso d'Oro awards (1979), first object to be inducted into the Permanent Design Collection at the New York MOMA, and of course it's the best-loved Alessi coffee maker bar none, as well as first "amphibious object", i.e. it is for kitchen use, but with its high design quality it can also be brought directly to the table.

  • Alessi Espresso Maker
Size: 6 Cup
I have had one since a trip to Italy in 2000 and used it every day. I can still use that one but thought time for a new one.

  • Excellent product, top quality, easy to use...
Size: 6 Cup
Wanted one made of steel to be able to use it on any kind of stove top (including induction). At first, I was shopping for a 10 cups MUSA from Bialetti, but when I read the reviews, I saw a satisfied buyer overall, but he needed rubber strap wrenches to unscrew it once warm/hot because the tread expands on heat. After trying this Alessi from a friend with the easy lever to open, I decided to go for this one instead. ** I saw for other BAD reviews, like it exploded, for both, Alessi and Bialetti or other, people don't read how to use these stove top coffee maker... NEVER EVER COMPRESS COFFEE OR FILL COMPLETELY, THIS IS NOT A MANUAL ELECTRIC ESPRESSO MACHINE. ONLY FILL AT ABOUT 2/3 - 3/4 OF THE COFFEE RECIPIENT AND LEAVE THE COFFEE GRIND LOOSE, UNCOMPRESSED Enjoy your espresso !! ... show more

  • Worth every penny. I’m in love!
Size: 6 Cup
After a mostly happy 10 years of using a standard 9 cup Bialetti moka pot, it was undeniably pitted, rusted, leaky and suboptimal. I decided to do a “quick” search to see what alternatives were out there. I only knew I wanted stainless steel. Many, many, way too many hours later I was mired it choices with a very wide price range that all claimed to be the best and all had similar ratings. What really made this pot the standout choice was the the “snap on” upper chamber. Being able to get rid of the “screw lid on tight - but not TOO tight” nonsense is a real bonus as I have small woman hands and little patience for it being my fault that my much needed morning coffee was ruined because I was half awake and didn’t screw on a lid with perfect precision. ....And then being forced to unscrew a blazing hot, very tight lid to try again. Another perk absent from many of the other brands is that the base is wider than my 9 cup Bialetti and therefore a better fit on my gas stove. I also found it visually appealing. Still, the $$$ was high and I was worried that I would just be spending an exorbitant amount of money (in my opinion) for coffee I could have made just as well for a third of the price. When it arrived last week I was immediately impressed with its elegance and beauty. I ran it through the trial brewings per the instructions using cheap, standard pre-ground coffee. I could not believe how well the pot performed on the very first run. The flow of liquid was silky smooth and the seal was perfect. I made the full 6 cups and then the 3 cups using the reducer filter. Both were equally successful. The handle got a bit hot making the 6 cup and I used a towel to pour. But it wasn’t hot enough to leave a burn or make me drop it so I don’t have a problem. I can see the issue others have mentioned with the inside bottom rim being hard to dry, but 30 seconds on the stove at very low heat takes care of it. After the 2 throwaway pots I used a burr grinder for my good beans, set on a coarse espresso size. Or notch 3 out of 12 with 12 being most coarse. .....and I suddenly found myself drinking the BEST cup of coffee I have ever made. I was so happy I texted my whole family pictures. And I’m no expert, but I’m pretty sure the coffee is stronger. I am accustomed to drinking a full pot of the 9 cup Bialetti every day. Sometimes 2 pots. I drank a full 6 cup pot from this beauty and I FELT the caffeine. Same coffee beans at the same grind and I buzzed like I haven’t done since I was a teenager eating chocolate covered espresso beans. Totally different feeling. Now I use the reducer and just drink half a pot. In conclusion.... Where has this beauty been all my life? Who knew wonderful coffee could be SO easy? And at the same time looking like a piece of art on my stove? What more can I say? I’m not just satisfied; I’m thrilled! - and a newly minted coffee snob. :-) ... show more

  • Design Award?
Size: 6 Cup
I have no idea how this so called “award winning” espresso maker even made it past entry. The latch to release the top section from the bottom is difficult and ridged. The handle is copper and is extremely hot. Finally,…flavor? Simply…I’ve had much better!

  • Does not seal properly when under pressure on initial unit - replacement unit works properly
Size: 6 Cup
The particular unit I received has a fabrication flaw (unless others purchasers experience the same flaw). When under pressure, the pressure escapes from the sealed interface shown in the images. This causes only part of the water from the reservoir to push up through the coffee into the coffee maker, effectively rendering the coffee maker useless. The reason is that their is not enough mechanical pressure pushing the top of the coffee maker onto the seal. The handle functions as a latch and when fully latched is supposed to push the top portion onto the bottom water reservoir. One of the images shows the handle fully latched, leaving a gap between the coffee reservoir and the bottom water reservoir. This causes pressure to escape. To highlight the issue, I added a second picture where the handle is only partially latched. In this partially latched state, the gap closes up and the coffee maker functions perfectly. Unfortunately, when partially latched, the coffee maker may "explode" because the handle flies open under pressure (because it isn't properly latched). I bought this just before we went on a long camping trip for the summer and more than 30 days past since I bought this. Now Amazon won't take it back. I am very disappointed. This also not easy to correct myself as the latch holing the handle is welded to the water reservoir. Update from 08-23/2021 I contacted Alessi customer service directly since Amazon did not take my unit back. After exchanging pictures and a detailed description of the defect, Alessi USA customer service sent me a new coffee maker as replacement. The replacement unit works perfectly. I measured the latch location on the replacement coffee maker and indeed the latch is about 0.5mm lower ensuring proper sealing once fully latched. At the end I had initially received a coffee maker with a "tolerancing" issue and the replacement unit worked as advertised. ... show more
