Both the Maggio and the Artigiano are made by Coffee Tech in Israel, but peculiarly enough neither one of them is shown on the company
website in their present product line. The Maggio is a bit unconventional in design and takes some getting used to. The construction quality is ok and with well over 100 roasts under my belt with the unit I have had no mechanical problems with it.
I would not, however, ever spend that kind of money on an electric roaster. The one caveat I have with the Maggio is that it is electric. Having roasted a few times on gas roasters I am convinced that gas is the way to go for anything larger than about a pound roaster.
I've had some very pleasant discussions with the Toper people and have seen their machines in action. They are not comparable with Probats in my opinion (purely from design and construction aspects), but the results I've had from them are excellent. I probably would get a Toper if I really wanted or needed one badly enough. Unfortunately, I have too many other irons in the fire at this time.
