does anyone use the Franke Saphira, Saeco Idea Cappuccino, or the Jura Capresso Impressa Z6 espresso machine?

i am doing a feasibility study and i've been trying to find customer reviews on these three machines, any help would be great! thanks!

These are three very expensive so-called "superautomatic" espresso machines, geared towards a commercial establishment that demands production of 100-120 cups/day. The Saphira is generally regarded as overpriced relative to its performance, and I couldn't find reviews on the Saeco you mentioned. Jura Capresso tends to set the benchmark for this kind of machine, so both in terms of taste and value, that is likely the best of the three. Some of Franke's high-end machines (not the Saphira) are also quite highly regarded.

Do keep in mind that no superauto currently in existence can beat out a well-trained barista with a La Marzocco, Synesso, or similar quality machine. If you want to be known for the quality of your espresso shots, that's the way to go.

Still, all three of these machines ought to make an espresso-based beverage pleasing to the average American palate, at the touch of one button, with zero mess. There is something to be said for that.

(Okay you should have a barista come in and program it properly before the first use and tweak it if you switch bean blends)

Here are sample reviews for two:

Franke Saphira (being compared to a number of other machines):

I couldn't find a review for the Saeco, but it can be purchased here, and this company is well-regarded by the coffee aficionado community. They likely can tell you more about it: http://www.wholelattelove.com/commercial/products/idea_cap.cfm?ItemID=945&CPpage=reviewadd&add=1

And for the basis of my main commentary, in addition to the comparison review link I posted next to the Saphira, you should also read this:

Wenger is one of two companies From Delemont  that make Swiss Army Knives. In 1898 Theodore Wenger was made manager of Jupiter Paul Boechat & Co. This company was the winner of a contract from the Swiss Army to make knives the Army. Theodore Wenger changed the name of the company from Jupiter Paul Boechat & Co to Wenger & David. Later in 2005 Wenger was bought by Victorinox.

First Wenger  was to find spoons and forks manufacturers and went to work, and started to make pocket knives for the Swiss Army. Later in 1907 the Swiss split the contract in two. Some of the pocket knives where to be made in Canton of Schwyz and the second half in the Canton of Jura. The company said that they did this to make every one happy. But some people think that it was really done to make the making of Swiss Army knives a competitive business  to drive down the prices.

Later in 1929 Theodore died and Kasper Oertli was the majority share holder in the company. Later there was a fire in the factory. When the company rebuilt they modernized the facility and also started to make watches. As I mentioned earlier in 2005 Victorinox bought Wenger. This is where people get confused with who was the original maker. Wenger is said to be the Genuine Swiss Army Knife, and Victorinox is the Original Swiss Army Knife. There are many knock off's of these knives and some of them are good knives but if you want a real swiss army knife you need to get one of these two. there quality is buy fare the best.
