Pros

Coffee machine takes unground beans but there is also in a separate delivery * for ground coffee. This is important because coffee grounds go mouldy quickly and sealed units made by other brands are unhygienic.

The froth produced by this machine is superb – great micro bubbles that produce a superb cappuccino. The machine has a standard steam spout which warms milk and/or produces a froth. If you put it in the upper position it heats the milk for a latte but...  Read More

It also means that the fairly small water container needs refilling very frequently. Empty the ground container as instructed, it warns well before its full.

Everything is at the slightest touch of a button with a digital menu to let you know what is going on and when maintenence is required. The monochrome display is clear and easy to read. The switch on sequence is important. It has all the excellent fea...  Read More

The machine has a stainless steel drip tray and chrome plated control unit. It takes a delongi water softener filter good in a hard water area to remove lime scale. The machine goes through a heat cycle which dispenses a small amount of water on switc...  Read More



Cons

It seems to leak as well. The hopper has an utterly ridiculous grid thing. There was no manual found in the box.

Quality


There is no getting over the quality of coffee from this delonghi and the aroma sets your senses alight.


All depends on the quality of the beans but worth paying a bit extra.


I think the only thing i would have liked is to compare with the automatic frother version of this machine.


This should be done with the manufacturers solution.

Packaging/appearance


You need a jug and it works best with cold milk from the fridge.


You can also use the frother for drinks like hot chocolate.


With this one you can put the milk in your jug from the off and the steam is steam from the get-go.


Whats in the box=============the coffee machine and power cables, a frother/steamer, water hardness tester, coffee scoop, and d...  Read More

Competitiveness


Doesn’t take many overprices starbuck’s coffees to pay for it!


I ordered some more but might make up my own descaler at some point as that is expensive.


So, first off, we have a well-made and stylish machine.


Speaking of the steam sparge, it’s actually a frother and warmer.

    It took me sometime to finally decide to purchase this machine partly because of the sheer number of machines out there and also because i couldnt find many reviews for this specific machine

    Afterwards i poured the descalingwater solution that had passed through the machine into my kettle and it cleaned that a treat as well


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    My first one lasted about 7 years and only died when i washed the actual press section in a dishwasher and for some reason the machine would no longer work


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    What i like about this is that when you select it the machine does an internal purge so that the first blast is actual steam not warm water


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Of course none of this comes to anything if the coffee is rubbish


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The instruction manual is fairly clear but the english translation is slightly confusing in places fortunately the line drawings are very clear


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Even when a preprogrammed drink is selected the user can adjust the amount of coffee beans used “aroma” by touching the button with a coffee bean picture until the desired setting is obtained


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The touch system for the buttons under the display is sensitive and works well
