Customer Opinions


Terrible Product / Terrible Warranty
Kevin Holan

I bought this unit and just short of 60 days later the espresso maker piece started to leak steam during brewing. I emailed DeLonghi to find out how to get it replaced. After a week of no response, I called DeLonghi support and they said I had to mail it, at my own expense, to a repair center. My request to have a replacement, since it was only about 45 days old, was denied.The repair center turned out to be pretty close, so, I drove over and dropped it off. A couple of weeks went by and I had not heard anything so I called. The response was "we have not gotten to it yet". Then a week after that I received a call saying the part to fix it was on back order from Italy. No ETA.I am now looking for a replacement and needless to say we will not be buying a DeLonghi product for this or anything else.

Best combination machine we've had.
Marjie Snyder

We have had several Combination Espresso and coffee makers through the years. They don't usually last more than a couple years. So we don't spend a fortune on them. My husband makes Cappuccinos for us each Sunday morning. This by far is our favorite so if it ever goes, this one will be what we buy again. So user friendly with smart features. Love it.

Good Combination machine
Jean Gray

I got this because I like the occasional cappuccino. It does a decent job for a middle of the road product.First the drip side. It's a little slower than other drip machines I've had for making the full 10 cups. The biggest drawback of the drip side is the design of the carafe spout. When filling the water reservoir you have to pour super slow or it overflows and drips water onto your counter. Same thing when you pour the first couple of cups of coffee. Once it gets to about the 6 cup mark you can pour at a better rate without it dripping. The spout is basically just flat with really small lips on the sides, not the contoured glass you find most places.As a plus you do have the Aroma mode if you only want to make 4 cups or less to make sure you get good flavor from the short brew. The programmable auto off is also great if you are the type of person who tends to forget about the pot in the morning. The warming plate does run a little hot. It doesn't burn the brewed coffee, but if it's been sitting there more than about 15 minutes, it's way too hot to drink.For the espresso side. I like the switch valve operation over something you have turn. And it won't let the steam into the espresso brewing side until it reaches the right pressure so you can leave it on the coffee setting when you turn it on.The cons of the espresso side:1. The frothing tip is screw on. I counted, it takes more than 30 twists to get it off or on, which is a huge pain2. You don't get a frothing cup. Come on, for this price you couldn't include one? I had one left over from a previous combo machine, so not a big deal, but if you want to make a cappuccino right out of the box, forget about it3. The directions for steaming milk tell you to hold the frother right under the surface of the milk. This will froth your milk without getting it warm. You should hold the frothing cup so that the milk comes up to the top of the frothing tip until the milk is hot and then froth it.4. The marked water level recommendations on the espresso carafe are off. I find I need to add more water than recommended in order to get both hot milk and a good froth.Overall a decent machine for the price point. The biggest negative is the screw on and off frothing tip. If you make a lot of cappuccinos, you may want to look for a machine with an easier to clean design. I had one with a rubber tip and metal straw to bring down air for foaming that was super easy to clean compared to this.
