Have to disagree with the maintenance point (also I imagine at retail price it could well be more expensive). The 9Barista machine looks great don't get me wrong, but I'd be surprised if it were more reliable than the Europiccola, and that's before getting into availability of spares if required!
Looking forward to hearing about the 9Barista when you get your hands on it. I don't know why, but despite the fact that I only drink espresso from my machine, it doesn't really appeal to me. I think it's the irrational comparison to a Moka pot that I can't get past.

I was just replying to your post directly above mine, adressing the time and effort aspect.

To be honest I don't see how that 9Barista monstrum would be less of a faff than the Pavoni..
