They are real deal
I was initially sceptical after finding the La Marzocco Linea Mini R on Choose Coffee. They listed the best price in the UK, which often raises red flags. To verify their legitimacy, I reached out via WhatsApp and spoke directly with Fabricio.
My chosen model was out of stock at the time. Rather than leaving me in the dark, he provided consistent updates regarding availability. The team even suggested an extra 1% discount for paying by bank transfer.
I decided to drive down to their physical workshop in Brentford, operating as Backup Coffee (their servicing arm), to collect the purchase in person. Seeing their setup confirmed it is a genuine business repairing actual machines. These guys are the real deal and I am very happy with the entire process.
