Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Savor a burst of true Italian flavor at home with this DeLonghi espresso maker. With a self-priming pump, large 68-ounce water reservoir (which removes for easy filling and cleaning), and two nozzles, this electric machine brews up single or double shots of espresso and can quickly produce more. For a brunch or after-dinner crowd, it's unbeatable. Froth a perfect cappuccino with the swivel steamer and separate steam control knob. A drip tray under the nozzles holds two espresso shot glasses or small cups (regular coffee cups won't fit underneath), and removes for easy cleaning. Two stainless-steel filter holders are provided: one for finely ground espresso coffee (tamp with the built-in tamper), and one that holds special prepackaged coffee pods (no tamping and little cleanup required). The detailed instruction booklet seems daunting at first, but the lighted settings work intuitively. The retro-look machine measures 14 by 12 by 11 inches, and is covered by a one-year warranty. --Ann Bieri

Overseas, we had a DeLonghi machine, very similar to this one. Apparently on the 220 voltage, the machines get hotter and have higher bar pressure, which is really the only thing that matters in making espresso. Initially, upon returning to the USA, we got a Krups machine, more expensive than this one, and it was a disaster. It spewed water and coffee all over the place, and made a poor cold cup of coffee-soup. We returned it, and went back to DeLonghi. Thank heavens, we can make a proper cup of coffee again. Although the bar pressure is 15, which I think is less than the overseas model, there are no higher pressure machines in the US for even substantially more money. Ignore bells and whistles, and here you have the best, cleanest machine, which can even brew from fine ground coffee (as an espresso machine is supposed to do, as opposed to others on the market). Oh, and the little round pressing device to compress the coffee in the filter is very convenient.

A really nice espresso machine. I've used both pods and ground coffee, and this machine makes great espresso either way. I've owned several inexpensive machines, and finally decided to 'bite the bullet' and get a nice one, and I REALLY got a nice one. Although the instructions say you have to wait 1/2 hour for the unit to warm up, it usually doesn't take that long. I turn it on, and by the time I'm out of the shower it's ready. It won't really make a latte though - I suggest heat your milk, then froth it just a little. But it makes a really nice foamy cappuchino. I'm glad I got this - and heartily reccommend it to anyone who loves espresso, cappuchino or latte!

I have seen alot of negative reviews regarding this appliance, however; I purchased one about a year ago and absolutely love it! The 2 liter tank is the bomb - no more running out of water for steam. There is nothing worse than running out of water in those tiny tanks on other machines. By the time you correct that issue the espresso has gone cold! I crank out some high volume for all my neighbors on the weekends (several lattes) and have never had a single problem with this machine. This machine is built for high volume. I liked it so much I purchased one for my brother. I am also about to get one for a wedding gift for my neighbor. I wouldn't use anything else...especially a Krups! Had two different Krups machines and both fell apart in less than 6 months!

Bad Pump
While it worked, I liked it. The pump lasted less than 2 weeks. I bought it locally, and got my money back.
