that has to be the most unhinged travel case I've ever seen lol, certainly a vibe bringing that through TSA

It has hinges 😆. Yeah, you're not exactly traveling light with that.
I had one, and I liked it a lot. In the end, the convenience of using my Decent DE1 caused me to second-guess the value of having the Sonic S7 take up valuable kitchen space, so I moved it on. If I didn't have a machine that heats up fully in just a few minutes, then I think the S7 would have been a more practical sulution.
I agree with you about the case. I would have thought I wouldn't use it but it's perfect for knowing you've got everything and it's altogether so great for travelling in your vehicle.
Wow, I didn’t realise you could get manual machines. It looks smart.
I really like this idea, ideal for holidays and camping.
Never considered a manual machine. Love the look of the machine.
What a unique concept! My favorites are the walnut handles and the colour combination. Beautiful!
A great looking machine. It was too difficult to justify a full esspresso machine to my partner, but a simple lever machine was a nice compromise. This looks awesome.
This would make an amazing birthday present for my daughter.
The MHW website is brilliant! And love the idea of the travel case. Looks solid.
perfect for holidays
So sleek and sassy. A brilliant gift for my coffee obsessed husband
Ooh, that wooden handle is gorgeous!
I love pressed coffee because it tastes so much nicer, love this Manual Lever Espresso Machine.
i've always wanted one of these, i'm a massive coffee fan
This looks absolutely fabulous and would be such a treat, amazing!
Absolutely love pressed coffee and this machine is stunning 🤩
Love the travel case. Amazing
Didn't realise you got these they look good.
I am retiring soon so will have plenty of time to indulge in this box of tricks!
this machine is stunning
I would love to win this for my husband for his birthday in a few weeks as he loves his espresso's but his machine is ancient and this looks amazing
Looks nicely built
I must get One! Coffee in the Best Way Possible ☕
Love the case, def something I could travel with
The quality looks amazing.
Great review. It looks so slick!
This looks amazing 😍
I think it's a lovely object but I hate to say I value convenience of our bean-to-cup machine. I don't doubt it's something some people would love to have.
Great product, I love coffee so this would be perfect. Thanks for the review.
Yep, if this is the machine for you I would also go with the case for the same reasons, good machine, great video.
Looks beautifully made! I’d save a few quid by ditching the travel case though!
This looks amazing!
Great review, loks well built
Amazing! Great review.

8:34 "this poo tastes nothing like chocolate!"
Looks Good 👍🏻
Love my coffee
A thing of beauty 😍
Great solution to poor hotel coffee - but a hefty investment
looks great
Looks nice
Nice design.
Awesome!
the pole that holds the brew chamber is alway bending during extraction, not sturdy enough, despite the look that suggests otherwise.... it's bothering me for longevity of the machine
I'd love this for my husband.
Interesting idea
Nice...wonder how it compares to the picopresso
Nice, would be an upgrade on my aeropress ... but not quite as portable!
What a case!
Very nice!
Awesome content
Very cool.
Any plans to review the Kazak Rota 2?
Awesome
Nice!
I like coffee
Very interesting, but I still think the travel case seems a bit OTT
Does the speed of pulling the lever change the taste?
Was going for a automatic but now not so sure
Great
All those years pulling pints paying dividends
Wow
👍
👏👏👏👏

Is there really any need for the travel case? I guess some people will buy it just for that!
Beautiful machine. Not sure about the name though.
Why drag this up a hill, use a flask
☕️
that's a lot of effort for a cup of coffee
1100 AUD in Australia😐
Looks good but doesn't justify the £600 price tag.
"Pull the other one"😅
MHW? makes hot water?
Get it farted on.

Too much effort vs normal machines.
And you have to preheat before each shot. What a pain in the ass. Hard pass.

To be fair it's no more of an issue for pre heating than most manual machines. I've reviewed supercop, video coming soon, if you don't want to pre-heat, that's one to look at.
It looks amazing and very stylish and I'm sure it makes delicious coffee but, at the end of the day, I'm rather lazy and would much rather have my coffee with the touch of a button! More convenient and consistent!!
Looks nice
