Poor performance
I've had two The first one the boiler broke The second one the grinder stopped working even though I got new bur and then the boiler broke be aware. Plus when they replace it and it's under warranty they only give you a refurbished unit

Espresso like at home (Italy)
This machine makes great espresso. It takes a little of try and error but the results are worth the effort. As an Italian in US, I do feel like I’m having “caffè e cappuccino come al bar”.

Best Espresso machine
Best Espresso Machine with the price. I love making my own coffee so I decided to buy semi automatic. Coffee quality is great. Handy, easy to clean and look amazing at my coffee bar.

Great milk drink instructions for De’Longi espresso machine
Super helpful to have 3D instructions to figure out how to operate this coffee machine. It really feels like it’s worth the high price, on top of all the cool automated barista functions the machine has. It’s like having your own private Starbucks in your kitchen

My friend EVO
I’ve just upgraded the DeLongi Bambino I had become my trusted coffee buddy, never failing to present me with quality coffee the past 4years. I purchased the DeLongi Magnifica EVO because I have one in my office and I just had to have my own EVO at home. I am not mechanically inclined, but the setup instructions were simple and I had the EVO ready to serve coffee in abo...

Water Softness Light Not Clear If Top or Bottom is for Soft Water
Didn’t know what light for soft — the top light or the bottom light. Had to watch Tom‘s Coffee video for that

Relearn coffee from the Specialista point of view
I bought this coffee maker after a very interesting research that I had to make to make the best choice. I m convinced I had the perfect choice. My specialista coffee maker takes me beyond coffee taste with such precision that I have surfed into new brands of coffee cause now I m reknowing coffee taste again. I recently learned that the perfect espresso portion contains...

Great Espresso Machine
My wife gave this machine for Christmas. I have wanted one for several years. After a short but fun learning curve, and trying several different brands of freshly roasted beans, I am making the best tasting espresso drinks ever. I love it!

The Best De'Longhi I've Owned
I've owned De'Longhi espresso makers for nearly 20 years, and the La Specialista is the "third generation" in the product lines I've purchased -- and by far the best one yet! The machine is a pleasure to use and delivers a dependable, consistent, and thoroughly satisfying espresso drink. I should mention that the machine it replaced was given to my daughter and her fami...

Good product
I have had this product for about 30 days. There is a learning curve that you have to adjust too.
