    I can recommend the espresso machine, I've not used the grinder, however I would caution you to do your research on the website before ordering. If the machine is defective or something else goes wrong be sure you are happy with who you are ordering from.

    I know some of these places have a bad reputation when it comes to getting refunds or replacements.

    Anyway the Silvia is a great machine, a good step up from the Gaggia Classic and one I recommend.

    You should check out Bellabarista. Very reputable seller in the UK and worth seeing if they'll do you a deal.

    I'd maybe also consider your grinder choice. Have owned a Rocky and quickly got upgraditis. In fact also owned one of the Base units and found it took up a lot of countertop space. Would buy the Silvia with a Vario and forget the base.

    Thanks for all feedback, I'll have a look. I'm in uk at the moment so shipping no issue.
