Easy To Use
I like the convenience of making making at home. This machine is easy to set up and use. We have used pod espresso machines prior to this. The difference in strength of espresso is very apparent. The only minus is the tamper could be better as this one is plastic and doubles as a spoon. That makes it difficult to get a tight of a puck and doesn't fit perfectly. Not a hu...

Love
I do love the simplicity of this little machine, however as a first time espresso machine user i wish the instructions were more clear instead of having to rely on videos from tiktok on how to use it! But after a few trials and errors i got it to make delicious esspresso shots to use in my lattes and i love it now!

I love that this espresso machine was so lightweight and compact. It fit perfectly in my kitchen and it is easy to move around. It is very easy and easy to use. Very durable good quality. The noise is very silent. Worth it if you like coffee shop coffee.

Ahhhhhh love coffeee!
Quick steps, easy to manage for the perfect shot of espresso. Milk frother takes some getting used to but very decent glossy milk can be achieved!

Great machine!
I have been using this product daily since I received it, and I love it. It’s very easy to set up, and also easy to use! There aren’t a lot of components which I like, and I’ve been practicing how to make the perfect espresso at home to save money at the coffee shops. I recommend!

Good espresso machine
I liked this DeLonghi espresso machine. It’s beautiful, lightweight and doesn’t take a lot of counter space. It’s relatively quiet and easy to clean but I felt like it took me some trial and error to make it work. The instructions which are pictures are confusing and I had to unplug the machine to make it stop flashing lights. The frother works really well but the mach...

One handed Expresso making
Easy to use. You can make two cups at a time, which is convenient if you are trying to get out the door fast. The expresso was delicious. I like the security feature of the side knob for frothing. The machine seems very durable. We will enjoy using it for years.

Makes the perfect cup
Our old espresso machine broke awhile ago and I was so excited for this amazing upgrade. It truly makes THE perfect espresso. I couldn’t be happier. It’s also pretty to look at and not as bulky as our old one.

Fine for a beginner
It’s a convenient espresso machine. No frills and straightforward. You prep the coffee puck, lock in the portafilter, press single or double shot, and done! However, the portafilter feels cheap and plasticky. Usually they have some weight to it, and this kind of cheapens the espresso making experience. The setup is also a bit frustrating because the used puck is very di...

Dear Dangitrachel_2444,
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and balanced review of the De’Longhi Classic Espresso Machine (Product ID: EM450M). We truly value your thoughtful feedback and appreciate your honesty about both the strengths and areas for improvement.
We’re glad to hear that you found the machine convenient, beginner‑friendly, and straightforward to use.

We can also share tips to make puck removal easier and optimize your workflow.

Powerful and efficient espresso at home
Right upon pouring the first shots the espresso was smooth. No hassle in setting up whatsoever just make sure you remove the red plug before using it. The machine is small but mighty! I loved the frother also it worked quite fast compared to others I’ve tried. Overall love this little espresso machine!

Easy Operation / Smooth Espresso
This is my second DeLonghi espresso machine and this one is even better than the first. The machine is super easy to operate and makes a great espresso with, in my opinion, less espresso used than the previous version. Also, much easier to clean with less water runoff and less mess.
