Imagine if the sky’s the limit, what would the ultimate light duty/home

Years of research and development yielded the creation of a yet another 
standard setting espresso machine: the GS/3. With La Marzocco performance 
and technology, the GS/3 is designed for light commercial applications, 
including restaurants, offices, catering, or the ultimate home coffee bar. All 
the features and performance of a larger La Marzocco in a compact footprint.
