Currently looking at selling my Rocket Appartamento and getting a Bambino Plus. Has anyone done something similar? I’ve had the rocket for a few months and I love the look of the machine and how well built and powerful it is. But, I feel as if it’s more than what I need. I make 1 or maybe 2 drinks a day and more on the weekend. Only milk drinks.

The long heat up time is obviously the main problem as by the time I get home from work and wait for the machine to warm up it ends up being close to too late for a quick coffee. Note: I did have a smart plug but currently on a self build project with no internet.
And when you turn the machine on whilst doing over things to wait for the heat up you end up having to run through over a cup of water from it being too hot. I know these are small things but I don’t feel like I can justify such a good machine for my small
Usage at the moment.

Has anyone “downgraded” and if so are you glad you did it or do you regret it?
