Ooh yeah, it's great! Everytime I use it I'm tempted to pull the burner because it just freaks me out!

You can't use too fine a grind and you have to let it bubble for about 2 minutes. The coffee takes about 2-3 minutes to suck back down but man is it good! Too bad it only makes coffee for 4, kinda sucks at dinner parties where you have 6-8 people.

Okay but is it one of the makers depicted at the site I indicated because I'm thinking of getting one of them?

Yep, mine is a Kona D. You know after you I replied to your post I did a search. Apparently there are a few more out there. I just happened to buy the most expensive one, but I don't remember paying almost $200 for mine, I think it was more like $130.

Here's one that I like as well.
