It'd be interesting to get the opinion of someone new to espresso brewing on lever machines.
I'd always written them off due to pressure being an additional variable to manage. Though you do generally get constrained on the volume of water put through so maybe there's a balance there.
Maybe the more hands-on nature is actually a benefit.
Maintenance definitely improved over pump-driven machines at least.
