>>8 Yeah they're a pretty significant investment and ones that aren't fully disassemblable for thorough cleaning are basically not worth buying second hand either (and as with everything these companies are super opposed to make products that can actually be maintenanced. There's exceptions but they are exceptions). I only have mine now because it was the old office coffee maker at my place of work and they gave it to me for free when i asked if i could have it. Moka pots are fussy. Probably the way to go if you like espresso and don't have much cash but it is pretty detrimental to the mood when your whole brewing process is a series of quick-time events to avoid your coffee burning
