[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I always enjoy coffee in the morning sometimes I also enjoy it in the afternoon and evening. We love experimenting with the different types of coffee, but we've never had a machine that could make cappuccino, latte or espresso. So I've never used a coffee machine this high-tech before and I was a little bit intimidated. But after reading through the instructions which were very well written and thorough, I felt more confident using it for my first time. There was some prep before using the machine. I followed the instructions that were written in the instruction booklet , but also followed along with the onscreen prompts. This helped me to in prepping the machine before the first use. The instruction booklet also let you know how often to clean certain parts of the machine. The initial set up didn't take long. I used whole coffee beans for my first try in this machine, but I'm happy to see that you can also use pre-ground coffee. I did have to adjust the grind of the coffee beans to be more coarse, the instructions for how to adjust it was also in the manual and had on screen instructions. It didn't take long for it to make my cup of coffee not only did the coffee smell delicious but the freshness of it was also exceptional. Just like one you'd get from an actual coffee house. The grinding of the beans is kind of loud, but it doesn't take long for it to grind. I know I'm using more beans than I usually would if I made a regular pot of coffee in my other machine, but I think because of this, the coffee actually tastes better coming from this machine. I've also used the milk frother. It was neat watching it froth into my cup. It's great being able to make my own cappuccinos at home. I love that you can have your own personalized settings. So now my husband and I can each have our own personalized cup. I think this machine will help me save money, since I'm not going to my favorite coffee place every week. The only con I see with this machine is if you don't have a lot of counter space. i'm fortunate enough to have plenty of space but if you lived in a small apartment, it might take up a lot of room. This is a high-quality machine and I think it'll last me for many years. The maintenance on it seems simple and if I keep up on it, the machine will work great. I definitely recommend this machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this machine multiple times a day, I am obsessed. Not only is this machine beautiful, it makes delicious lattes. It is super easy and quick to set up. The machine saves your favorite settings. The downsides: it is loud and takes about 2 minutes to make a full latte.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am going to spend some time being really detailed in this review because I feel honored to be selected to try this product. Coffee is my life blood and for years my husband has encouraged me to splurge and buy a wonderful espresso machine just like this one. I have he hesitated, but when I learned that I was selected to try this product it was like Christmas had come early. I'm going to start with the critique because almost everything in this review is lovely. The machine is somewhat bulky and will take up a lot of space on your counter. The directions are somewhat confusing because the company sells to people all over the world and the instructions come in many languages. When I set up the coffee pot for the first time, the directions on the screen skipped step number two where you add water to the chamber. Luckily my husband is an engineer and he helped me to figure this out and add water. I have not read all of the instructions yet, but it seems that there's a lot of maintenance needed for this machine. The good. As I write this, I am drinking an amazing caramel latte macciotto, which I made from the comfort of my own kitchen. This drink is really good. The milk is steamed perfectly and the coffee taste blends well with the layers of milk. I added a little caramel drizzle on the top for a fancy touch. I had barely scratched the surface of all of the drinks that this machine can make, and I do think that I'll use it a lot this winter both for hot water for tea and hot cocoa. I have not explored a lot of the maintenance menus yet, but I'm impressed that I could customize this to both my water hardness, grind levels, sound of the machine, you can really make this your own and save settings for several users. The included filter, make sure that the water taste its best and does not take away from the flavor of your drink. This machine is amazing and I am so grateful to be able to try it. If you love a good cup of coffee, I think that you will have fun with us as well. Make it your own. I used chocolate orange, flavored whole beans and it gave my drink a really special flavor. Cheers!! 💕☕️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coffee machine offers an all-in-one experience with several standout features. The preset drink buttons make selecting your brew effortless, and the built-in water filtration system ensures great-tasting coffee. It's easy to set up, has a sleek design, and allows you to grind fresh beans or use pre-ground coffee for single servings. Overall, it's user-friendly and versatile. However, it's not without drawbacks. The machine is quite noisy, so if you're looking for a quiet brewing process, this might not be the best choice. It also requires regular cleaning and maintenance to keep it running smoothly, which can be time-consuming. Lastly, its bulky design takes up significant counter space. Despite these issues, it's a solid choice for coffee enthusiasts.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazing espresso machine! Everything about it is very streamlined - from the way it looks to the way it's used. Set up was super easy - everything was on the screen. The screen went through the steps step by step. It makes decent coffee and grinds whole beans and makes it quickly, within 1-3 minutes. The attached milk crema/frother was easy to use and install. Overall, it's our go to machine to make coffee!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first espresso machine, I've seen so many tiktoks and coffee recipes I can't wait to try. I started with a simple espresso and whole beans and my the different good beans and a good machine make. The taste is amazing. It cleans itself before and after and the machine walks you through the set up and will let you know if you need a new filter and you can set your favorites. It has a hot water and hot milk option for non coffee drinkers as well. Switching out to add milk or make different drinks is fool proof. It doesn't recommend using oat milk which is unfortunate as it is my favorite, but it's a small downside since you can still use other milk alternatives. This is a barista in my house, just add whatever syrups you please. Now to buy some bougie cups….

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had a few coffee machines in the past but have never been that impressed. Either it's too much work, the coffee just isn't great, or it creates too much waste. This De'Longhi Evo Next is much fancier than any other machine I've ever owned. It's also pricier, but after using it the last few weeks, I can absolutely see why. The prep and maintenance of the machine is minimal. It creates many different coffee drinks with different strengths and ratios. You fill the machine with coffee beans, and it grinds the beans with each use. There is also and option to use ground coffee if you'd like. The grinder has different settings that you can adjust depending on the coffee bean. I've found that the default setting of 3-4 works great. I made the mistake of trying to grind the coffee too fine and brew on high-strength setting and received an error. I was able to troubleshoot by doing some water rinses and setting the grinder back to a courser setting. I've been experimenting with espressos, coffees with milk drinks (such as cappucinos and lattes), as well as just regular drip coffee. I've also made mochas, and my husband (who is not typically a coffee drinker) has actually been loving these. The milk frothing feature is extremely easy to use, there is a hot, frothed milk setting, if you want to make hot chocolate or just some warm milk. You can also use the hot water setting to make tea. I guess the only thing that's missing on this machine is the ability to make cold drinks like cold brew. The Evo Magnifica Next is pretty intuitive and rinses itself periodically. It also gives you reminders for maintenance, such as emptying the waste receptacle, cleaning the milk carafe, adding water to the tank, or descaling the machine. You can create up to 3 profile settings to save favorite temperatures and strengths. What I especially love about this machine is there's practically no waste, unlike a machine that uses pre-filled cups or pods, and the coffee flavor is bold and delicious. This machine is good for the environment yet also super convenient. I am really loving it and see myself using it daily or even multiple times a day. It's absolutely worth the investment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This espresso machine is amazing! It does everything & even some self-cleaning which is great. It was super easy to set-up. Everything is pretty automated. It does not care for regular coffee and can only do one regular cup of coffee at a time but if you're making espresso, you can load up on fresh beans. You can change how fine the grind is & it holds a pretty good amount of beans. I LOVE having fresh espresso beans in this machine because every time I walk by it, I get a nice whiff of beans. Yum!! It's super easy to use & the screen walks you through everything for cleaning or for the wide variety of espresso inspired drinks you can make. I also really like the milk frothing capability. I use heavy cream and it heats up without issue. It's so efficient & user friendly. Would definitely recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is the easiest way to get the coffee shop experience in your home. It is very self-sufficient and makes delicious espresso. After making drinks, the machine runs through cleaning cycles which is fantastic. There is a screen that takes you through the steps of making the drink you desire. Overall, this espresso machine is very easy and user friendly. I would definitely recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first full espresso machine and I love all the features! It's very simple to assemble, set up, and clean everything was a breeze. However, I do have one main issue with the machine. I'm not sure if mine is defective or not but none of the drinks come out hot. No matter what I do, they're always lukewarm, even with the setting on the hottest option. Other than that I really enjoy it I just wish it would produce actual hot drinks
