    I bought it for my sister who loves Starbucks but hate the long lines. After using for 2 weeks, and learning how to work it, she finally perfected the vanilla latte she loves. Says it tastes just like theirs. She loves the machine and said it’s the best gift ever! Cannot wait to get up in the morning and make some.

    Don't usually do many reviews but this machine makes the most wonderful coffee. A little adjusting is necessary for the proper grind and amount but after that it is always good. The choice of milk or Oat milk you steam to add makes a difference try several. Oatley Barista blend is a good choice

    I was intimidated by this machine at first, but the how-to videos from DeLonghi and the quick start guide gave me some practice. Honestly, I still find myself getting better with foaming milk, but I do find this product a great quality, and even fun to use.

    Bought this as an early Christmas gift for my father. He seems to love it! The couple time I’ve used it. I’ve enjoyed it. Makes you feel like a real barista.

    My wife and I had been using a basic De'Longhi espresso maker for years without issue. When it finally stopped working we thought we would upgrade to a more advanced model. We got it home and followed the setup procedure perfectly. Upon startup it proceeded to go into descale mode and kept spitting out hot water for about 40 minutes before we unplugged it. We tried several more times to get it working before my wife found reviews online warning of similar issues... I would not recommend this to anyone, the 1st time use process is a pita if it even wants to work. We returned it, bought a Breville Express, have had 0 issues with the Breville. Unless you count trying to find the perfect cup of espresso as an issue lol.

    Overall good experience. Quality is great, beans grinder is working perfectly, milk steamer is amazing, only the pressure when you pour the espresso shot is not that stable when you use exactly the same setup and options.

    The grinder and frother (once you get used to it) are very efficient. The tamper can be slightly larger to fit the portafilter completely, but otherwise this is a perfect coffee maker for espressos and cappuccinos.
