For the price and the size this little unit does the trick every morning. Probably made over 300 espressos since I've got it and still works perfectly. Cleanup is simple with the metal filter as well. Although the steamer attachment did break off a while ago, but it didn't bother me as I manually froth my milk anyways. But I'll admit it's not connected to the unit very strongly.

This machine makes great European style espresso! This is basically the difference between steam and pump driven machines. This is a steam driven machine that produces a full body coffee.

カナダ北米仕様だったのでAタイプの変換プラグ（￥190）が必要でした欠点はいろいろありますまず，違う仕様のメカの説明書が入っています。こういう感覚，大らかというか，ずぼらというか。そして使い方が理解出来るまでに時間がかかります。このメカに対しては学習が必要です。以下，カプチーノのご参考にどうぞ。なれれば美味しいエスプレッソもカプチーノも頂けます。コーヒーを２杯分入れることを前提に（4杯はむずかしいと思いました）イタリアンロースト又はフレンチローストの深煎りの豆を選ぶ。グラニュー糖より細く豆をひいて粉状に。粉は容器に入れたら軽く押して空気を抜いておくコーヒー粉14g 水120cc をセット。付属のガラスサーバーに牛乳を100cc用意。スイッチを入れると加熱が始まり、沸騰温度になってからコーヒーが出てくるコーヒーがぽこっと出始めたら即座にガラスサーバーの牛乳にスチームの棒をいれて右上のつまみを手前に全開に開くと蒸気が出てくる。この時の蒸気の出具合はつまみ操作の経験値。牛乳が丁度良く泡立ったらすぐつまみを締める蒸気になるための水の量、牛乳の量、始めるタイミングと終えるタイミングが重要牛乳が泡立ったら右上のつまみを締めればコーヒーの続きが出てきます。（泡立てとコーヒー抽出が一緒にはできません。）失敗の原因熱いカプチーノが飲みたくてあらかじめ牛乳を電子レンジで加熱したら泡立ちませんでした。牛乳に含まれている空気が抜けてしまったんですかね？化学反応の観察ですね。そんなこんなでようやくお得なお買い物になりました。買って一年位経過しました。毎日使ってコーヒーを美味しく頂いています。

クレマもできにくいけど、良い味で抽出できますので、良い商品です。お値段も安いのでこれから入門の方にはお勧めです。エスプレッソマシンは安いものしか使ってないからかもしれないですが、二年も使うとどこかしら不具合がおきますので、またリピートするつもりです。

説明書がすべて横文字で、型落ち品？だったのか、ミルクフォームの作り方がネットなどを調べてもわかりづらく苦労しました・・・・。その苦労あって、作れるようになったあとは家族にもおいしいと言ってもらえるようになりました。

I researched a few different espresso machines in the price range of $30-$40 before purchasing. This one seemed to have the quality and function at a low price point. I would agree.My husband and I have been using this product since it arrived around the 3rd week of July. We make at least 2 sets four-shot espressos each morning for our morning coffee. This product has replaced our Bialetti stovetop espresso machine.It makes 4 shots in about 3 minutes, and steams the milk halfway through this brewing. Or not, you don't have to steam the milk if you don't want. Just let out the pressure on the steaming wand for a few seconds so there isn't buildup.It's incredibly easy to use, easy to clean, and does it job. I will update this review if and when there are any concerns or problems. Otherwise, if there's no updates consider it's still doing it's job.Bottom line = great espresso machine at a low price point! Makes a great tasting espresso, and steams the milk well too. I did take off the plastic part at the bottom so there isn't milk with hot plastic just sitting in it and it's easier to clean.

We purchased our first DeLonghi espresso/cappuccino maker over 15 years ago. Granted, we only used it a couple times a month (not every day), but it really lasted and worked great. It finally broke this fall so I purchased this new model for my husband as a Christmas gift. Right away we noticed the improvements in the design, power of the machine and ease of use.My only disappointment was that the unit did NOT come with a frothing pitcher - I had to order one separately. I read some of the reviews here that suggested I buy a short/squat shaped pitcher due to a shorter-than-usual steaming arm. I bought the shortest one I could find but was disappointed that the arm did not reach to the bottom of the small pitcher. HOWEVER... we quickly realized that we didn't need to touch the bottom of the pitcher while frothing/steaming - the power of this unit heats the milk effectively without having to dip all the way down like we needed to with the older unit.I would highly recommend this model for home users who want great-tasting, good quality espresso without paying the high cost of some of the other bigger-name models. DeLonghi has stood our test of time and has continued to improve their products - a wonderful surprise!

Getting this machine was my idea, my husband was happy with our leaking, overflowing Mr. Coffee coffee maker. I finally took the plug and we are both glad we did. Now, we have had this for only a week, so I can't comment on longevity. I will update as needed. So far we have found it easy to use (we read through the directions the first time we made expresso) and it makes a good cup of joe. The instructions suggest making two cups of coffee before you actually drink what you made so I did that. My husband wishes it made an 8 cup of java juice but that would defeat the purpose:) We use the same coffee as before (Caribou Mahogany) and it is very flavorful. The steamer works well with our coffee mug and whole milk. It is nice because we steam the milk right in the mug, pour the coffee in and have a very hot, yummy cup. Alone the coffee is not that hot but we always add seamed milk which brings up the temp significantly.Ok, we loved this machine while it worked. We brewed 2-4 cups a day for 4 months. Then one morning it just wouldn't heat up anymore. It appears that the heating element died. Ugh, now we paid money for something that doesn't work. It sucks!

I got this machine because it was fairly inexpensive and it had decent reviews. It does make good espresso, haven't tried it for cappuccino yet, and I haven't been able to steam the milk for my latte's as by the time I get my cup out and the milk into it the machine's done, but we're working on it. My main gripe is that when the espresso spout is hooked up, it's to big for a regular cup to fit under there. Yes, I could just buy a set of tiny espresso cups, but if I'm making a latte, I need a larger cup, especially when I'm putting double shots in (or on a day when I need more, 4 shots) and those cups don't fit under the spout without tipping the cup. If you tip the cup then you have to tip it to get it back out and then the espresso spills.I do like that it's so easy to use, that it comes with the little pre-measured pot (which is cute, if it wasn't glass I'd let my toddler play coffee maker with it), and all you have to do is push the button on the side. The machine is quick and quiet and easy to clean thanks to the removable tray. Just needs an adjustable spout and it would be perfect.

I love this little machine! I purchased the first one in 2004 after reading excellent reviews on the "crema" quality. We've used this machine everyday for the last 5 years and look forward to it every morning. I'm an Americano drinker and have found the way to get the strongest, smoothest flavor from this machine is to pull a double shot, then add half an inch of boiling water, then cream. Delicious! Here in Seattle, I use local Lighthouse Roasters or Longbeach Roasters coffee beans at home. The freshness of these high quality coffees makes our home espresso drinks as good as we'd get at a cafe. The second machine I just bought today is for the office, where I've been spending way too much money running to the corner cafe for coffee in the afternoon. Since I purchased our first machine 5 years ago, the price of this unit has dropped by half (I paid $65 for the first one). I'm hoping the popularity of the machine has allowed DeLonghi to drop the price and not the quality.Side Note: I have never used the frothing wand on this machine and have heard the milk steaming/frothing capacity is low. The steam pressure, in relation to coffee quality, creates the most flavorful shots the first 2 runs. Give the machine a break of 10 minutes or so before turning on another steam cycle. For us at home, this is the amount of time it takes to drink our first cup, so the timing works out perfectly.
