I am really impressed with the ease of use the quality of coffee and the way this beautiful machine looks on my counter
With the delonghi you cannot see the water level from the side
I had issues with the beans going into the gears and having to be vacuumed out to start over again
Price
Introductionde’longhi is industry leader when it comes to coffee and expresso machines
If the price is lower more people will buy it
Packaging/appearance
I was hand rinsing the portafilter after each use and washing it weekly by hand
The beans fill from the top and grind automatically when you attach the portafilter
One of my favourite parts is that once you grind a portion of coffee you can tamp is before pulling the portafilter out
If you prefer the occasional decaf not judging you can set the grind level dial all the way to the left which will allow you to... Read More

Weve had a number of coffee machines over the years with the most recent being a fantastic melita barista which sadly came to the end of its serviceable life with a number of repetitive faults

One reason for the move away from fully automatic to this machine was the ability to get more heat into milk which is something that a number of the leading auto machines such as jura melitta and delonghi themselves seem to have set ideas on and i personally cant abide warm milk which seems to be the thing

I can only guess that the weightpressure of the water on the valve at the base of the container is the problem so ive filled to a lower level it is a pleasingly big tank and no repetition so far
