Smeg recently acquired one of the world-renowned coffee brands of all time: La Pavoni. Smeg known as much more of an appliance brand has been trying to improve its position in the market and by buying such a unique historic brand like La Pavoni it might have done the trick.

I wish the machine brewed a little slower [More]
