Price for the item was fair, BUT the price for shipping was excessive, unfair. I could have bought it at local coffee shop and avoided the shipping cost. That's what I should have done.
I haven't yet had a chance to use the Replacement Gaskets & Screen for 6 Cup Moka Express (that's good news, since it means my Moka Express is still working great without a replacement). I can assure you that the company was very prompt with their delivery of them and they appear to be in fine condition.
For a while it seemed that we were buying a new coffee maker every two years when the "factory" gasket gave out. I would check local coffee shops for replacements with no luck. The gaskets that I recently purchased are much better quality than the factory ones. I bought two packages and am thinking that those should last a very long time.
I forgot to add water in a pre coffee morning haze and burned the gasket off my beloved stove top espresso maker. This fixed it up quick as could be.
I have a 6 cup moka express and a Brikka, they are both excellent but the Brikka produces a lot of crema which is the main reason I bought it after buying the Moka express.The moka express is still working fine after 6 months of use, no leakages.nothing, but the Brikka started leaking after only three months of use, I guess it's because of the high pressure it produces, so it was time for a gasket change.I searched AMAZON for a Brikka gasket but couldn't find any, this was the closest I found, I swapped my Mokas gasket with the Brikkas and it worked fine, so I ordered this and it was a perfect fit, you just need to keep it tightly closed for a while so that the gasket takes the shape of the coffee filter. Now your set for great espresso.
