Last time I was in one, they had one or two models off in a corner. They have a new one that's made specially for them by Kitchen Aid that was supposed to be in stores in time for Christmas, but I haven't checked. It's $800, so I don't really care. Le Sur de Table is another W-S-like store, and they too have a few espresso makers, but the brand that they carry in depth, Nespresso, only uses pre-measured cartridges. I don't want that. Others they carry (Francis-Francis) are over $400. Kitchens Etc. is similar. There are on-line sources for machines in the $200-$300 range, but that seems to be missing from the few local stores that have any stock beyond the department store brands. -- I'm really Mike Rivers (mrivers@d-and-d.com) However, until the spam goes away or Hell freezes over, lots of IP addresses are blocked from this system.
