Spaghetti anon, it's a very nice basic machine, made without any planned obsolescence and with available and affordable replacement parts.
I paid $400 for it and paired it with picrel.
The only issue really is that out of the box it comes set up for pre ground coffee. You will probably want to swap out the pressure regulator spring to a 9bar or whatever pressure you like, but it's a cheap part and takes you maybe 15-20min to do the swap.

You don't need it, nor do you need use scales and timers to make a good espresso, you just get used to timing and dosing it right.
