I bought this machine in the UK and will definitely purchase one when we are back in the US. It makes as good or better latte's than you can get at any cafe and pays for itself very quickly. I was surprised how well the milk frother works and the coffee comes out nice and strong. Everyone who I have made coffee for from this machine - has ordered one for their home as well - its that good. You won't be sorry. | 5 | 776 days ago | Good While It Lasts -- But That's Not Long
Definitely good for your money as far as WHAT it achieves, but for HOW LONG it does that you are better off spending more on a more reputable brand. After exactly a year (how convenient for DeLonghi, warranty-wise), it started heating the water so only half to two-thirds went through, then the rest would go after a 10-minute delay. Three months later, today, it is not heating any water whatsoever. Time to go shopping for a new one. It DEFINITELY won't be DeLonghi. I was happy with the machine before, as it made good, timely espresso with a wonderfully easy froth. Now, I realize if I had just spent double, I could have had a better machine that lasted 5 years. My last $70 Krups lasted that long. [NOTE: I use my espresso machine daily.] | 2 | 774 days ago | Just okay
I like this ok, but the steam wand doesn't really froth the milk very well. Sometimes it does, others it doesn't. Then I have to heat the steamed milk in the microwave because it is still cold. I guess I'm not having much luck with it. But after all the extra work my lattes taste good! Overall I guess it doesn't work the best. | 2 | 774 days ago | Dislike Milk Steamer Wand
The milk steamer wand is so short and so close to the body of the machine that steaming milk is an awkward procedure. | 3 | 774 days ago | Excellent choice for the money...
I'm surprised at some of the negative reviews of this product. Perhaps the reviewers ended up with the occasional lemons. I've owned two of these...one I bought for myself, and the other as a gift, and they've worked beautifully. The milk steamer is very effective (but as noted, the wand is a bit short, which would be my only complaint). It would be nice to have a separate bypass switch between brewing and steaming modes, but the lack of one is common in machines in this price range. Overall I'm very happy with mine and have had no problems at all. At the current price, I'd highly recommend purchasing one. If you want more features and better construction, then spend another $100 or more for a steam pump model, but for fast and easy coffee drinks from a functional, affordable machine, this is hard to beat. | 4 | 774 days ago | An excellent little espresso maker
This is a perfect espresso maker for a small family of two. If you follow the directions and purchase quality espresso beans, you'll get espresso as good as you may have tasted in Europe. It's a delight and very efficient. | 5 | 774 days ago |
