Bought this as a gift for my husband. The whole family love it. Easy to adjust strength & volume of coffee. Very easy to use & clean. My only negative would be that it seems to need descaling very regularly to the point we now ignore the alarm light for that.

I bought this coffee machine as we have had another Delonghi S ECAM22110SB. These machines are easy to use and easy to clean. I don't often use the milk frother but was easy enough to use when I did try it out. The water tank holds a reasonable volume of water.
This machine is great for making coffee before work in the morning.

I bought this machine for a workplace, although the machine creates quite nice tasting coffee it is somewhat difficult to setup and operate compared to previous machines. The coffee machine is also quite slow at turning on and heating up the milk frother, but as a whole it is a quality machine.

Had machine for 2 months now and very happy. Takes a little while to get the grind and strength settings to suit your taste but once you find it you can set and forget. Milk frother/steam wand easy enough to clean after each use. Had been using pod machine prior but would highly recommend this machine.

Bought this model to replace my pod based machines after feeling guilty about the environmental impact. Had to do a little experimenting, but if you buy quality beans and store them correctly, this machine produces good tasting coffee. Disappointed you couldn't adjust the grind and amount of coffee dispensed with more precision. Simple to keep clean and seems reliable so far. Very happy with my purcase.

Indeed I like the outcome of this machine, the frother is good, the grinder as well.

Yes it's simple and easy to use and every member of the family can use it easily.

The way it needed to be clean is automatic, it takes some time but it's efficient and reasonable.

The coffee machine is very easy to operate, you can get a cup of coffee in a couple of minutes.
However, the quality is very poor, next to no crema, coffee is weak even at the strongest setting and finest grind setting.
I suspect that the built-in grinder is a problem, too coarse for real expresso.
I do not use frother, can't comment on the quality.
if you like your coffee strong and with crema, do not buy this delonghi coffee machine

Bought this 2 days ago and the grinder broke/wont grind/making a funny noise.. The milk throffer isnt too good. It will only let you make a capachino type throff.. no good for steaming milk.. Over all this unit isnt too good as a coffee machine.. More of a "gimic" as to a proper barrista type of machine.. You cant get the coffee/milk hot, basically luke warm.... Not too many options when deciding what type of coffee you want. for the high price on this unit.. Ide say "stay away" from it.. Get a machine that has a group head as you have more control.. Now the fun begins to return for the money back.. Im buying another brand.. Sunbeam has been reliable to me over the years.

This was a replacement for my 8 yr old Philips SAECO automatic machine.
I found it Easy to set up & easy to use. Gives great tasting coffee with no hassle. Like the adjustments so you can tailor the way you love your coffee. I like it hot so easy to adjust and to get a nice hot coffee. Purcahsed from Good Guys online, delivered in 2 days so can't complain.

Delonghi's in general are pricey for what they offer. This is a well simplified and cheaply made of the original Esam 3000 series. Most surfaces are plastic and instead of chrome you get stainless steel. The machine is made in Romania which gives me a bit of worry. Otherwise, how the coffee comes out will be up to your fine tuning. PS. You might want to change the coffee/boiler temperature, because it is set to mid out of the box and that just results in lukewarm drink if you only use milk from the fridge.

with the beans I am using (DeLonghi, from The Good Guys) I am having the best flavoured coffee, The machine is easy to set up and use, I have not needed to clean it yet, a light comes on when it needs cleaning, I'm sure that if I follow the instructions I should not have any problems.

This machine makes perfect coffee everytime. You can control everything with it to make coffee the way you like.
The removable tray and water reservoir makes it really easy to clean. The lights on the front of the machine also light up whenever something is wrong like empty water reservoir or rescaling needed.
I would definetly recommend this machine.

Got this machine from Harvey Norman recently.Sleek, easy to use and portable- it was a great buy.
It was easy to set it up. In my opinion, at the moment as far as prices are concerned this is a great product.
This DeLonghi machine also has built in Cappuccino maker and after 2 weeks of using it, I am more than happy with its functionality.Highly recommended.

I have had this machine now for 4 months and can not make a good coffee with it. Have been over the manual many times and played with the settings - wasting a full bag of good beans and still can not get this machine to make a decent coffee. It takes 2.5minutes for the milk to heat to 60deg (which is the normal heat range to make a milky coffee) and there's no way you would get a good foam for a cappuccino from the frother iin this machine. I have written to delonghi with questions and concerns and had no reply. Don't waste your money.
