I'm not an average coffee drinker. I drink 4 to 5 lattes a day and this machine is delivering it for a month now without any signs of breaking down. For a year I switched 4 other coffee makers and this little guy is not louder than the others, and it makes the best espresso from them all and the frother doesn't make your milk taste like water. My friend has had her Delonghi machine for over 7 years now but you have to take care of it to do so. Regular cleaning and maintenance. Very simple machine to use, with no touch screen, and no auto stop it is all manual which took a while to remember, and not leave the machine alone till it's done. I love my new Delonghi and only time will tell for how long.

We love this little machine! It’s quick, easy to use and the booklets with it are a great help. We don’t often get to coffee shops for specialty drinks so this helps us be creative at home. Some reviews said it was very loud but ours isn’t. Looking forward to a summer of iced coffees and our own seasonal specialties

I bought this for my adult daughter for Christmas. She struggled with a couple of the initial start up procedures, but it was just her getting used to the machine and not a fault of the product. She says she is tweaking her skills and her coffee is just getting better. She is very happy with the machine.

I purchased this model to replace a Delonghi purchased 5 years ago (it had gone beyond its useful life I believe). Love this new new. Love the compact design and filter storage . I especially love the frothy crema! I'm having a little trouble with inserting and removing the filters. I've been placing the filter holder on a flat surface and pressing the filter in place with the flat of my hand. I tried fingers first and caught skin. Removing them is tricky. Sometimes they fall out when I hang out the puck. Other than using my nails or a knife, I can't determine who to remove the filter. My old delonghi had a little lever that I flipped to hold the filter in place when I banged out the puck. This feature is gone. It made filter removal effortless. I'd appreciate any insights on removing the filters from the holder. Thanks.

Great little machine for your house. You can pull a good espresso in minutes.

Stopped working after a month

Easy to use and clean. Great tool for learning how to make Caffe Latte and Mocha.

Makes great espresso and froth

Easy to use and coffee is just delicious

It’s small but works amazing I love it.
