    • The coffee is delicious and the frother is god-send.
    • Overall, it's still a prized possession for avid coffee lovers (like ourselves)
    • Yo do need to dis-assemble the cup portion to clear out the coffee oils that can clog the cup
    • It is an efficient coffee maker, easy and simple to use.
    • Only you need to buy a good coffee and you will have a perfect espresso coffee
    • Use good freshly ground coffee, keep the machine clean.
    • Barely produces a shot (using ESE pods) and the coffee is lukewarm.
    • For years they've complained about being unable to find decent coffee in Paris
    • making a good coffee in the morning. make so taste coffee,easy clean.
    • I have my doubts at the beginning but It works pretty well and the coffee is great.
    • Watch a few tutorials on how to tamper coffee and how to find the right grind, and you're good to go
    • When my expensive coffee maker broke down after a year of use, and trying to get it back to work proved more expensive, I decided on this little De’Longhi which is less than a third the price
    • There are perhaps 3 or 4 places in the entire city they make decent coffee - Parisians hardly notice
    • (Starbuck, FYI, has been selling Americans crappy French coffee with Italian names for decades
    • It's either designed to make very weak coffee or this specific machine is defective
    • Great value and great coffee
    • Great Expresso/coffee situation
    • Use any good coffee, espresso grind.
    • Yes, you actually have to have the supplies, stand there and wait, clean up the spilled coffee, and make it the night before if you want it cold
    • And to top it all off, the coffee is as bland as water with some decaf in it.
    • Also steamer takes so long that by the time the milk is warm, the coffee is cold
    • Best coffee machine I ever had!
    • and it's compact size, the great coffee it makes,
    • Biggest downfall is that it leaks coffee from spout after each use
    • For the price, it surprisingly makes really good coffee
    • Easy to handle, easy to wash, but makes the best coffee.
    • We drink we drink a ton of great coffee
    • Like some have said you need to have a good coffee grinder or espresso coffee with that perfect bring consistency
    • Makes great coffee
    • I enjoy the coffee.
    • So when you buy it NEW..the coffee will taste like plastic chemicals for a while

    • Anyway, my in-laws loved the coffee I made with this machine
    • Great coffee for the price of this machine
    • Coffee taste like water down
    • First, the positive comments based on using this machine about 12 times with modifications along the way to attempt to get a good cup of espresso: easy to use, as far as the dials go; nice looking piece of equipment and doesn't take up much space; plus coffee does get delivered hotNow, the negative comments-overall this is just an expensive coffee maker:1
    • The pressure is too much and leaks through the exit tip to the point that it’s dripping water and find pool’s in the counter every time I leave it on to build up (it needs time, its not automatic and ready to go)Makes relatively good espresso coffee
    • Coffee was decent, to good, but what is the point if the pump fails
    • Poor quality and the coffee is like water
    • Coffee weak
    • After reading many reviews, I learned that you need really good espresso fine ground coffee, (which I press just a little bit), so I bought the Lavazza Crema e Gusto and it by far beats Starbucks or Dunkin’ espresso!
    • I bought it because it cranks up 12 atmospheres of pressure, which is enough to abuse properly ground coffee into giving up its very best flavors
    • Otherwise the coffee is great.
    • Makes a "decent" coffee but they use cheap parts and has a poor design
    • so you’ll be able to properly make your delicious coffee.
    • This makes great tasting strong coffee/espresso
    • Makes great coffee.
    • For best results, make sure to heat up your cup if you like hot coffee
    • I also like that you have the option to use ground coffee or buy pods from someone like Illy Caffe or LaVazza
    • It is simple to operate, refilling the water is easy, and it makes excellent coffee.
    • It takes up so little counter space and the coffee is delicious
    • Perfect coffee
    • It makes a great froth which adds to the flavor and overall great coffee.
    • Rich coffee, lots of crema.
    • Otherwise, hot coffee spills onto my hand when I remove the cup.
    • It makes good coffee if you use ground
    • The coffee itself is good
    • Get better coffee
    • If I remember to turn it on before preparing the coffee grounds it's usually ready by the time I get the coffee ready.
    • I was You a few months ago struggling to find a k cup that I would enjoy as much as my Coffee stand coffee, but now here I am Making it myself
    • Enjoy your coffee and remember: Buy a GREAT Coffee
    • This is in spite of using the finest grind coffee available, and making an effort to put some weight behind tamping scoops into the filter.
    • but wow, this little thing really cranks out the coffee
    • Good machine, but coffee isn't hot as I accept
    • So first time I tried I had some barely digestible cold coffee in my mug
    • I am glad I "listened" to her and don't really have anything to add to her review except make sure you coffee is actually ground for espresso
    • It leaks a little AND the coffee is more Americano than Espresso; no matter how much I dump the water out to get pure coffee.
    • After reading many reviews, I learned that you need really good espresso fine ground coffee, (which I press just a little bit), so I bought the Lavazza Crema e Gusto and it by far beats Starbucks or Dunkin’ espresso!
    • Makes great coffee and speciality coffees.
    • I love that I can use pods or freshly ground coffee when making my lattes.
    • The water temperature is to low, the pump to fast, and the grounds container to small - resulting in very weak coffee
    • It makes quite good coffee with a nice head of crema.
    • This small espresso machine works well, makes a very good coffee.
    • So I bought reusable gold plated cups, filters for them and ground coffee....it just left a lot to be desired still
    • American coffee is awful in most parts of the country and Starbucks is usually the only option
    • I bought it for my partner over a year ago and it is still making great coffee
    • Also note that another review for this product that said this machine makes "weak coffee" most likely filled up a whole cup (8 ounces or more) using the machine, when it's intended for 2 shots maximum (4-6 oz), so the additional water most likely diluted the product
    • Great quality coffee looks like the pro coffee from the cafe
    • Made a good coffee at first
    • Coffee still gets super hot and the pump is as strong as the 1st cup
    • but i think i could get much better coffee and ease of use with a higher end product
    • Best coffee machine you can ask for and the taste hmm so good
    • And to top it all off, the coffee is as bland as water with some decaf in it.
    • The quality well, I have another 15 BAR Pump Espresso that it is more professional and that much plastic makes me feel it is like a toy but for how it tastes the coffee is great
    • He's a picky coffee drinker:)
    • Now that I have this one to use in the mean time, I will look for a new machine that I like (probably another Mister Coffee or a Krups, I’ve owned both and only had problems with Mister Coffee, but they always work for about three years, making four shots of espresso every morning....

    • Use good freshly ground coffee, keep the machine clean.

    • This is a tremendous amount of trial and error and results in too weak coffee if you let it go and creates a lot of guess work
    • What's not to love about the smell of freshly ground coffee beans and hot, frothy milk
    • It’s a budget friendly machine that doesn’t force you to use any fancy pods, so for a heavy coffee drinker like myself you will easily start saving so much money right after the 10th or so cup!
    • Now I enjoy creamy rich espresso coffee everyday
    • Makes great coffee, cleaning is not too difficult, and I really hope it lasts a long time cause it does make good espresso.
    • Good machine to make good coffee.
    • I can have a coffee in less than 5 minutes and the satisfaction of making a good coffee at home is so nice
    • Terrible coffee machine doesn’t work well!
    • so I bought this hoping it would be almost as easy as the homemade coffee but something comparable to the latte
    • The machine produced loud noise and no hot water or coffee would come out
