[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am enjoying this. I've used other coffee machines and other espresso machines. These aren't any harder to use than the ones I used before. The coffee and espresso is good too. You might need to play around with how you make it to get it to your liking. I did a little with the espresso. Overall I'm pleased. It's a little expensive but I'm not upset with it.

Everything is fine until you want to froth the milk. The steamer fizzles out after about 30 seconds (the milk is far from warm, let alone frothed at this point.) Then you have to wait until the frothing/foaming light comes back on to resume the frothing. And then you get maybe 20 seconds of steam. This routine goes on for a while. Meanwhile, the espresso you've just made is getting cold and the milk is not getting frothed. What I do to get around this is to heat the milk in the microwave first, then froth 2-3 times, working with the steamer going off and then on again. Eventually, I get frothed milk but only after a hassle one shouldn't have to go through with an espresso machine/frother. I'm thinking of getting a stand-alone frother/foamer, which is yet another gadget I'd rather not have to find room for in the kitchen. I don't recommend this machine, even though the combo espresso/coffee maker is a great idea.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this 'Longhi All-In-One Pump Espresso and 10-Cup Drip Coffee Machine for over a month and use it daily. It offers a lot of great features! I liked that it also had simple setup instructions and was very simple to assemble. I will say the coffee maker produces excellent coffee. I love how simple it is to pour water into it. The coffee was favorable and hot too. The espresso machine was nice, but my espresso wasn't as good as my coffee, but that could have just been my experience. I will also say that the measurements of the cups of coffee were off even when I filled the unit up for 8 cups. But it.s not a biggie; overall,  I think it's a nice investment, and I use my DeLonghi Espresso & Coffee machine every day. Having a machine that can multi-task is always a PLUS for me; heck, you can prepare coffee, cappuccino, espresso, latte, and even hot chocolate...can't beat that! I didn't think this machine needed a coffee filter for a moment, but as I read more and more about it, I saw that it did. I saw it included a Gold Tone permanent coffee filter required when making drip coffee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! This is a great looking espresso machine! I love the combination of being able to brew a full pot of coffee but then also able to make espresso shots. I had a nespresso before and was missing just plain coffee. This machine is kind of like the best of both worlds

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is by far the best coffee machine I've ever had, plus it makes Espresso! The cone filter area pulls and swings out and the metal filter just lifts out for cleaning. There is an area next to the filter that you pour the water in for the coffee, which is unique and it works great. I've only made espresso a couple of times but it's super easy if you read the directions that are included. Two THUMBS UP!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new favorite appliance! I love that I can make coffee and espresso from the same machine but what's even better is the cup warmer on top. Makes the perfect cup of joe. It looks so sharp (nice). Makes me feel like I am in a coffee shop in my own kitchen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coffee machine is absolutely incredible! It is by far the most amazing coffee maker I've ever owned. With the added espresso machine to this maker it is perfect for avid coffee and espresso drinkers.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! I was a little hesitant when I got this item: how can it possibly make coffee, espresso etc? Yes it can and a fine job too. Delongi thought of everything when they made this. I am loving the heated top where you can put your cup. I feel like a professional barista with this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one amazing coffee/espresso/cappucino machine. All the different features and uses and ways one can make anything from coffee to cappucino's to hot chocolate to espressos. Excellent choice of product! I have tried them all and they turn out perfect every time!
