The Gee is basically an upmarket Sunbeam with a few tweaky bits. The biggest failing of the Gee locally it was really Prehyped to blazes then followed up with the average steam performance and possibly how it has been then marketed in Oz after release. I believe Crossland in the US are still doing ok with them. Now it will suffer to find a place if the the BDB holds up to longer term use. This one will if it gets near the market be copied to within an inch of it's life (badly) reduced in price and flogged off out of china like the typical Aldi, Delonghi, lower end Breville and Sunbeams. Still would love to see them trying to keep it to the suggested price by the time they finish R&D and tooling up.
