What would you think is a good value in an espresso maker?

What’s wrong with your “double chamber all metal job that goes on the stove?” I have one of those and it works fine.
Seriously, how or why is a $200 machine better than the “double chamber all metal job that goes on the stove?” I love my espresso, and I’ve seen these fancy machines, but I ask myself why would I want one, when this simple little device works fine? It can’t break, it’s easy to use and clean, it makes good espresso, etc. What does a fancy machine do better?
