Same maker, same 54 mm portafilter, twice the warranty and a 3-second heat-up. No grinder, so budget for one separately.
The only other machine here with the grinder built in. Fewer grind steps (8 against 16) and the same one-year warranty; the choice comes down to workflow.
The cheapest route to a steam wand and a pressure gauge. 20 bar looks impressive but is headroom; the tank is small and there is no grinder.
The low-cost entry: a real 15-bar pump and a steam wand for a fraction of the price. Small tank, no grinder, one-year warranty.
Pump pressure is the least useful number on an espresso box: good espresso is pulled at about 9 bar, so 15 or 20 bar is headroom, not quality. What changes your mornings is whether a grinder is built in, how big the portafilter is and how long the warranty runs.
