Very, very cool.
on May 10, 2021
Posted by: zerohalo100
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I told my youngest son that this device was on the way he got incredibly excited. My wife and I have never been ones to shy our children away from coffee as it has been a staple in our family and our extended family for generations. So the idea that we could make espresso at home was a very happy thought.
Let me get this out of the way... the coffee maker is fine. It makes coffee. It's the espresso maker that you want to care about.
First, it's very easy to use; surprisingly so. All of the attachments it comes with make total sense, though I have to admit it took me a minute to realize that one of the attachments was to make two cups of espresso at the same time. Very cool nonetheless.
The milk-frother... wow that was a new one for me. I'm still practicing using it though I don't think I'll ever be able to make neat designs and shapes in my coffee. :)
I'm very happy with this unit and it has a proud and loud position in my kitchen!
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a NICE machine!! It’s easy to use with some great features. Whether you want a simple but high quality cup of coffee or a awesome eye opening cup of Espresso, this machine will fit your needs.

Great machine with so many functions!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a coffee lover, I love that this machine gives the opportunity to brew regular coffee and make the fun, delicious drinks that my family loves. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a grinder on it so I can use fresh beans which is why it gets 4 stars instead of 5.

Meets all of our needs!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were so used to having either a coffee pot or espresso machine. When we had visitors we always had to pull two machines out. This solves that issue beautifully. I love how chic and low profile this is. Delicious espresso and coffee!

All in one
on April 25, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This De'Longhi All-In-One Combination Coffee and Espresso Machine is truly amazing. The espresso machine produces coffee stand worthy coffee and it’s so easy and quick too. The coffee pot produces great quick coffee too and is very easy to set up for automatic brew. I could go on for days about the foam milk frother thing. It adds the finishing touch to every cup of coffee that I can’t even explain, you have to try it yourself.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Powerful combo
on April 24, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The De'Longhi All in One combination and espresso machine is a powerful all in one machine that can make both concentrated espresso or brewed coffee. I'm very impressed with the fact that it has dual functionality and does the job effectively without compromising one for the other. The machine itself took me a mere few minutes to set up and after running a water cycle through to clean it, started working immediately. Pros include:
1. Espresso can be customized to ground coffee or pods. It comes with 3 different filters including 1 cup, 2 cup or pods so that you can customize your coffee the way you want it.
2. Simple: there are 3 buttons to keep it simple. Just turn on, let it heat up and then the button to actually start pouring.
3. The milk frother is a great extra bonus. It has 2 settings for both milk frothing and cappuccino.
4. The coffee maker is a great feature for larger crowds and don't have to worry about having multiple machines since this one will do it all.
There were a couple of things about the machine that could use improvement, not enough to go down a star, but still enough to bother me. The amount of area, especially when making 2 cups of espresso, is not quite enough for a larger mug. When you make just 1 cup you can finagle it to fit a larger cup, but with 2, you really can only use a small espresso cup. Not a huge problem, but something to be aware of. I also would like to see an automatic espresso function; right now you need to start and stop the espresso manually. The machine does not automatically know when 1 or 2 cups are complete.
Otherwise, I'm extremely pleased with the functionality, simplicity and effectiveness of the combo espresso, coffee machine and highly recommend to anyone looking for a high quality combo machine.

Huge functionality, with sharp design!
on April 20, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone with a family who has different wants for their morning caffeine, I was pretty pumped to use De’Longhi All-in-One combination Coffee and Espresso Machine, hoping to streamline my counterspace. And the reviews are in from the assorted connoisseurs in my family (and me!) that the De’Longhi has hit the sweet spot for everyone.
I should start by saying I am not a coffee drinker, but I’ve collated the reviews of my family members that are, but the De’Longhi matters to me as I love simple clean countertops, and beautiful, multifunctional appliances. So for me, the De’Longhi combo machine is absolutely perfect. It looks sharp, the chrome and black fitting in almost any decor scheme. It is smaller than I expected - considering how it handles multiple duties - which was a pleasant surprise. It is sturdy, and well crafted, and I expect it will last. It came in pristine condition, without a ding or flaw.
I own other De’Longhi products (a slow cooker and radiant heater just to name a few), and I’ve been delighted with them all, and they are all functioning flawlessly, even years later. So I have every confidence that this Coffee/Expresso Machine will be the same.
Functionally it works as it should, simplifying mornings at our house. It is super quick to set up, and within 15 minutes of opening the box, we had our first cup. It has a dual heating system, so espresso drinkers don’t have to wait on the coffee drinkers to finish, and vice versa, and because this is so, many small wars have been subverted. I love that it has a reusable filter, which means we are never left in a bind, having to grab an expensive drink when we hit the road.. If you prefer cone filters, you can use those as well.
The frothing wand works okay, but it does take some practice to produce your desired thickness with consistency. For expresso, tamping seems to be the key to producing the perfect shot (which is included, more on this later). Milk steaming is lacking, as the wand has little range of motion and not enough power to spin the milk to get an ideal steam. While not perfect in every area, it more than makes up for it with its versatility and convenience.
For instance, this is a fantastic machine to have when guests stay, as it can pump out so much variety, suiting every taste. Coffee, espresso, lattes and cappuccinos, this thing has you covered, and it does them all well, and even great to some degree.
It is programmable, with an easy to read display and intuitive design, so if you want to think as little as possible in the morning, this is your machine. I like that the water reservoir lifts out for cleaning and filling. In fact, this machine is very easy to clean as a whole, which is a huge plus. Nothing is worse than having a product that performs well, but you don’t want to use because it’s such a hassle to tidy up afterward. The De’Longhi definitely makes clean up a breeze.
The carafe is well built and sturdy, with a wide mouth, and room for 10 cups of coffee (and a bit more). The water heats and brews quickly, so you don’t have to wait long, but not too quickly that it affects taste. On the espresso side, while the taste is fine, it is a bit watery, though again, perhaps better tamping creates a thicker shot. It seems the results vary, so this may be a user issue, rather than mechanical.
You’ll definitely want to give this a clean before using (which De’Longhi says is necessary), and don’t freak out if the first few brews don’t taste quite right. This will go away, so don’t have any initial misgivings. The manual also gives you instructions on how to make the various drinks, cleaning recommendations, programming notes, and general care in an easy to understand format.
De’Longhi has been producing some of my favorite products lately, and this All-In-One Coffee and Espresso Machine fits nicely in that family. I certainly recommend.
I would recommend this to a friend!
