Pros & Cons
Pros
It grinds the beans, tamps the espresso, makes the coffee and then deposits the 'puck' in the receptacle tray. Once you get the hang of it, brewing is actual simple. It's almost as easy as ordering coffee in an espresso shop to brew it yourself.
This machine beats out my coffee makers (regular coffee maker & my nespresso) by a long shot. All the items are very high quality and sturdy. The included manual clearly explains all the functions and features of this machine.
De`longhi's big selling point with this model is that you can brew delicious, iced coffee. That is kind of a no brainer but thought i would put it out there since flavored beans are popular (at least where i'm at) do get a good, unflavored medium bean... Read More
It makes wonderful coffee and is quite versatile. This is the one i use daily for the vine program.
The water heats up quickly, the machine when turned on does a rinse of the system to clean out what might have been left. There are smart sensors to detect whether the unit is out of water, the drip tray is full, or beans are empty.
Cons
My milk frothing leads to splashes although i only fill the container up a quarter of the way to make room for frothing. The coffee is the worst i have ever tasted, despite getting great coffee beans. Please save yourself money, time and frustration. ... Read More
Highlights
Quality
I'm very happy with a 3-year warranty, and the coffee quality is certainly elevated from my old machine.
I have the heat for the frother dialed up to the max.
Sadly, the advertised 'drip-style' coffee option on the box doesn't appear to actually be an option on the machine, with the ac... Read More

Price
The cost is a big question in this price range-- what's "worth it" is subjective & income-sensitive.
Packaging/appearance
Delicious espresso everything you want at your fingertips easy to use out of the box.
Easy to use and makes superb coffee and when i find myself in the mood for a cappuccino the milk fother makes the perfect froth.
The factory packaging uses that annoying styrofoam that breaks into little bits.
I've started using the double espresso x2 option and then topping it up with hot water from the frother section though, and tha... Read More
Competitiveness
No special maintenance needed other than running its descaling routine as the machine suggests.
The only downside has been the absurdly frequent descaling cycles i have to run.
Those k-cup machines, for example, cost much more to operate than they do to buy the machine.
No more plastic k-cups going in the trash and the best part is i can use higher quality coffee beans at a fraction of the price of k-cups!
