| Description | The Lelit MaraX V2 is a heat-exchange machine with a patented X-mode that switches between espresso-optimised and steam-optimised thermostat positions for faster recovery. Updated in 2022 with improved PID placement and a refined brew group, it offers excellent value in the prosumer segment. | The Barista Touch pairs a dual stainless-steel boiler with an integrated grinder and a 3.5-inch colour touchscreen. Guided workflows and an automatic milk texturing wand flatten the learning curve for home baristas stepping up from pod machines. |
