Question 1

Is there any indication where this product is manufactured?

Accepted Answer

Not really, but I see they sell the same product on Amazon UK. Also I received a spare filter from the Company. The package came from Germany. Judging by the quality too, it might be a German product.

Question 2

Can the seller tell the customers where this is made? It’s not indicated anywhere – neither on the product nor in the description.

Accepted Answer

I emailed the maker and just today received a response.  Many thanks for your inquiry. The country of manufacture for our bonVIVO Intenca is China. 
In case of further questions or suggestions I will gladly be at your disposal.
Best regards,

Question 3

is anybody who is espresso addict/already had a costly espresso machine that can answer if this moka really makes a coffee similar to a real espresso?

Accepted Answer

"Similar" yes....but really no it doesn't. Though it is technically espresso, it's an entirely different type of espresso..... although that's not a bad thing in this case. The espresso you're thinking of incorporates "bars" of pressure and is the primary difference between something like this versus what is thought of traditionally as "espresso". Even some of the best machine home models don't do espresso justice. Me personally I've never seen one that does short of dropping a substantial amount of money. If you're looking for something similar to the espresso you would find in any given coffee shop but at home, I'd recommend a ROK.

Question 4

I just went to use this for the first time and cannot locate the instructions. Would some kind soul out there help me out? Thanks.

Accepted Answer

Hi there! The instructions that come with it are somewhat lacking anyway. 1) Unscrew the copper top from the silver bottom. 2) lift out the strainer from the bottom silver portion. 3) fill the silver reservoir up to just below where the bolt is that you can see from the inside and outside (this is the pressure release valve.) 4) put the strainer back inside the silver water-filled piece. 5) fill the strainer with ground coffee—(instructions said not to tamp it down and I can say I tried and it did not work as well) 6) screw the top copper part onto the bottom silver part tightly. 7) place on stove on heat setting high enough to bring it to a boil within a few minutes. 8) you’ll know it’s done when it starts hissing (mine sometimes whistles if I accidentally overfill past pressure valve—don’t worry, it will still work but won’t explode;) and if you carefully (with heat protective device on your hand) lift the lid of the copper portion and see that it is full of coffee. This should only take a few minutes.

ENJOY! HTH!
