ECM Synchronika
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- $3000 - ECM Synchronika - Double Boiler, PID, flow control option, plumb-in option, NOT ugly, will function basically like a pro machine.
- I have a synch and just ordered a classika for my friend and couldn’t agree more
- I love my Synchronika’s fast heat up time but I don’t think it’s worth $800-900 more as anything other than a super luxury buy.
- It's basically an ECM Synchronika in a slightly different casing, Profitec is a subsidiary of ECM, and they use the same internals on both of them. It's built like a tank, and it you look after it it'll probably outlast you.
- I pulled the trigger on a Linea Micra and after 6 months, I ended up selling it for an ECM Synchronika with flow control. ... Go with ECM as a better build machine for a lesser price and more control.
Cons
- I looked at the Micra and Synchronika, but I feel that my sporadic milk drinks aren’t worth the added cost or space on the counter.

Decided to take the plunge on a synchronika I for a variety of reasons (including that it was on a great sale).
Definitely prefer the feel of the ECM build quality and joysticks on the steam wand vs dials
I already have a ECM synchronika I’m perfectly happy with.
