It comes instantly trouble for making coffee, now it leaking the warter from the sides but stop working for the coffee outlet, and it looks not easy to maintain as I can not buy the asssories from any store

I absolutely love my Delonghi espresso maker and use it everyday. It never skips a beat and makes beautiful coffee. The milk frother is also awesome and easy to use to get the right thickness. The machine itself looks smart on the kitchen bench and is also easy to clean. Highly recommended.

Bought the ECOV310 Vintage green Dec 2015, and have no problem since then. Find it t is both easy to use and clean. I only use it to make espresso coffee, hardly have any experience with the cappuccino nozzle. I make 2 to 3 cups a day, usually after meals.

I descale it every 3 months. I always preheat, flushing before and after every cup, so the boiler outlet is always kept clean, and system is heated to the right brewing temperature.

I use a Bodum burr grinder, grinding fresh 7 to 8gm of beans for each cup, selecting fine grind size for espresso, usually with medium or dark roast beans. The result is always satisfying, a nice cup of espresso (about 60ml) full of crema and robust taste and balance, taken without sugar.

Try it !

ECOV310BG We have bought 2 of these machines in 3 years - Grrr! both outside the one year paltry guarantee. i had no real sympathy from customer services, I was sad about this and have no coffee to drink!! :-( The product makes nice coffee, but I am sure will not last unless you use it once a week! Not robust at all

Best thing is you can use either ground coffee or a pod in this machine. Simple to use, looks fantastic and is versatile. Coffee taste great and very easy to clean. Pods are available from Harvey Norman or JB Hi Fi for three different types and prices, these are also biodegradable therefore kind to environment.

This machine is having good vintage looks especially with the light blue colour that we have. We used it everyday as I am a stay home mum and having considerable time to make a great coffee. Coffee produced perfectly as you need to not overfill the coffee holder.

The steam could not work simultaneously with espresso making makes it hard to multitask. After finish just prepare a wet cloth and wipe out the steamer and wash the coffee handler with running water.

It makes an ok coffee (not great) but we picked it up cheap because we loved the retro look. It is a pest to clean and if you like strong coffee you need to run several times as it only has capacity to make one weak cup at a time. It only lasted about 13months and then developed a fault that tripped the safety switch whenever the machine was turned on. really not worth it.

The machine extracts excellent creamy espresso even if I use a cheaper coffee sometimes.
It's simple to be operated and I couldn't find any difficulties to use it.
I use a damp clothe to clean the surface and the cup tray can be washed directly under running water, easy and fast. The water tank is detachable and easy to be filled with water.

Bought this machine because it was 50% off and it looks cute. Regretted my decision after making a few cups of coffee. Firstly, the water drips too fast so the coffee come out bland. Secondly, the heat pump takes a long time to heat up and temperature drops quite quickly and needed to wait for it to heat up again. Not worth the money. I went back to instant coffee and put it on Gumtree.

Designed similarly to our last Delonghi, this one has a new look, whilst giving the option of using ESE pods. It really is a no fuss, easy to use & easy to clean machine, allowing non fussy coffee drinkers the opportunity to make their own coffee. For $170 from Costco, I couldn't resist.

Plastic wand constantly blows while steaming the milk. Danger of steam burns on the face. I have burnt myself a few times.

Decides it hasn't heated up enough half was through extracting a coffee.

Tamp is fixed to machine - which means it's difficult to get necessary pressure

All of this for a very average tasting coffee.

This coffee machine works well, not too complicated to set it up. I have been using for 2 years, it is still working well except sometimes it leaks coffee from the handle. I bought it at a good price and would say it is value for money for the quality

The finish is fabulous. I made a wood block to put under the milk jug so I could other tasks while the milk steams up to temp. Right on about a standard cup not fitting under coffee spout. I fixed that be removing the chrome draining rack permanently and have had no problems since. After couple of months steam spout had steam pouring out of its top and milk wouldn't heat. Email delonghi and they immediately went me an envelope of O rings. Easy to install, fixed the problem and I have had a lot of trouble free wonderful Lattes since. 100s of them. It's a beauty!

It is easy to use, clean and makes good coffee. I do have to use the double shot to make one coffee, but it's mostly just me using it, I don't mind.
Great colours and matches the other delonghi appliances in the kitchen.
Only down side not to give 5 stars is the noise.. It has annoying rattle and when in use.

Used to have a cheep $120 sunbeam that lasted 4 years which packed it in. Thought I would pay extra and get something better. Not the case. Coffee tastes weak. Need to make as double shot with double coffee to get a good coffee. milk frothier is useless. The only way to get a creamy froth is to take of the plastic airraiter and froth manually however under preasure, plastic spout shoots off into the milk, covering you in hot milk. Have had it for 9 months now and have not enjoyed a cup of coffee from it yet. Give me a budget sunbeam any day.
Small. (Won't take up much room in the rubbish bin)
Bad milk frothier, bad coffee, too light weight(need to hang onto machine when locking in handle)

Great little machine much better than capsule machines- used daily to make 4plus coffees. We do the frother and can't comment as to whether it works.
Have had one for over 3 yrs now and buying a new one because the tray is warped from washing in dishwasher- had also started leaking a bit
Reliable, small and nice looking and good colour range
Can't wash accessories in dishwasherand its a bit noisy
