Bialetti Coffee Maker New Venus Bronze 4 Cups, Anti-Scalding Handle, Induction-friendly, 4 Cups (170ml), Stainless Steel, Bronze

I recently bought this large moka pot (double espresso size), and I’m really pleased with it. It makes a rich, tasty coffee very quickly, and the quality of the brew is excellent. The pot itself looks beautiful and quite aesthetic, which I really like. It also feels very stable on the stove, so it’s comfortable and safe to use. Overall, it’s efficient, well-designed, and a pleasure to use every morning. I’m very happy with this purchase.

It is high quality. Instructions warn not to put it in the dishwasher, only use water to clean it, and make and throw away 3 coffees before drinking from it. This helps remove any contamination and metallic or chemical taste from manufacturing. The only thing I don't like about the design is the handle; it has a hole for a screw where you naturally put your forefinger, and it feels uncomfortable and sharp. I have adapted the way I hold it to avoid this. The volume of coffee of the 4 (espresso) cup is fine for me, but for people used to long coffees from a machine, or for sharing, they would probably prefer the largest size. I have used it on a gas hob and a camping gas (butane propane mix) stove, and both worked fine. Not used on induction, but it's supposed to work. Note, the smallest size is not suitable for induction.

I had a well known brand basic electric espresso maker which I used for years but it started playing up - I bought a new one, same issues occurred. I now have a gas stove and decided to try one of these little stove top coffee makers instead. At a fraction of the price of my electric espresso maker, I wasn’t sure it would do the job - how wrong, it makes fabulous coffee. I got the 6 espresso cup size and that with milk added makes a huge mug of coffee, probably two normal size mugs. I followed the instructions- did three coffees and threw away before making the first coffee to drink. You fill the water below the seal, add coffee put together and put on stove using a modest heat - you don’t want the flames to extend beyond the base. It doesn’t take long before you hear it gurgle and coffee is brewed. It pours nicely and the handle isn’t hot - probably helped by not having the flames beyond the base. The instructions advise you to replace the seal every year if it doesn’t need replacing before then. I have made a note in my calendar. I would agree with another reviewer a fill line inside for the water would be handy but minor niggle. It’s a very smart machine that’s easy to clean. Best thing though is definitely the fab coffee. I’m going to look at getting the bigger size for when I have guests.

This hob top mokka pot is great. It is easy to use and cleaning is relatively easy. It looks stylish and makes a great cup of coffee. It is light weight and for the price you can't complain. I don't drink espresso so I use this to make a single mug and it's perfect.

Its amazing material and quality product! I bought it for my husband he loves it! Is a warrior product! The iron is such a high standard quality! Have been using it for 3 months every day and it looks like new! Very recommended! Plus it looks modern and sophisticated in our kitchen.

Works as advertised. Feels really good quality. Great for our induction hob.

Super stylish and elegant moka pot. Superb stainless steel construction, you just know it’s quality with a no scold handle. My ancestors would be proud.

I bought it to use on my new AEG induction hob, but it does not work at all. Avoid.

本当に美味しいコーヒーが簡単にできます。 ネスプレッソなどのカプセルのエスプレッソをのんでいる人には、 エスプレッソというよりも、ドリップコーヒーをイメージすると良いかもしれません。 ただし、だだのドリップコーヒーでは味わえない、濃厚で、芳醇な、最高の「ドリップコーヒー」を味わうことができます。 使用前に、全てのパーツを大きなの鍋で、「茹で」ました。 金属臭などの、嫌な臭い、変な味はありませんでした。 一点だけ不満なところがあります。 コーヒー豆を入れるパーツがとにかく取り出しづらいです。 注意点としては、 ①径が意外と小さく、コンロのサイズを確認する必要があること。 ②4カップとあるが、実質、エスプレッソ用の小さいカップ２杯分しか作れないこと。 ③IHが使えない可能性があること。（私のアイリスオオヤマ製の安いIHは使えませんでした。） 少し注意すべき点はありますが、間違いなく美味しいコーヒーが飲めると思います。

I have been searching for a Bialetti 10-cup stainless steel Espresso/CoffeeMaker for months. Found it on Amazon, but it had to come from Italy. Online searches for USA stores showed out of stock for the few that carried the item. It took 5 weeks to get the coffeemaker, but the wait was worth it. Great Italian quality - not made in China or India. Originally I had looked for the Musa style, but only could find the Venus style and I'm glad now that I have it. It has a wider base so I can turn the flame up a little more and the espresso is done sooner. The espresso tastes great and it makes enough (16 oz) for my husband and I to have a couple cups each on the weekend. When the package arrived, it looked like it had taken a beating. The espresso box was not in another box, but the seller had taped plastic 6" squares together (looked like large CD plastic cases) and covered them in brown paper and lots of tape. Luckily, the espresso maker came through without a scratch. I did not want to learn how to return items to Italy!

J’aime beaucoup cette cafetière Bialetti. La qualité est vraiment au rendez-vous : l’inox est solide, bien fini et durable. Elle fonctionne parfaitement sur une plaque à induction, ce qui était essentiel pour moi. La chauffe est rapide et homogène. Je dirais qu’elle est idéale pour un usage individuel ou pour deux grandes tasses (pas totalement remplies). Le café est intense, bien extrait et fidèle au goût traditionnel italien. Très bon rapport qualité-prix, je recommande sans hésiter.

The Bialetti Venus is a sleek, modern departure from the classic octagonal Moka Express that prioritizes both aesthetics and versatility. Constructed from high-grade 18/10 stainless steel, it feels remarkably sturdy and, more importantly, is fully compatible with induction cooktops—a major win for those with contemporary kitchens. While it still produces that signature, velvety stovetop espresso, the Venus offers a cleaner, slightly more refined flavor profile than its aluminum cousins and avoids the metallic aftertaste that some sensitive palates detect. What a nice clean result. It’s a practical, "set-it-and-forget-it" beauty that is easy to clean and built to last a lifetime, making it an essential upgrade for anyone who wants high-quality coffee without the fuss of a complex machine. No more plastic!

Amazing colour and quality
