Great machine
Great machine we use most days we had it for months now
purchased 2nd hand.
Like all machines it does need up keeping / maintenance to keep it in top condition.
Descale regularly (machine will tell you when depending on water condition you choose in settings)
(Filtered water is best)
& clean inside coffee grounds.
I have it set to turn off 2 hours after use so the pipe works do a clean
cycle rather than always on.

Part of the family
Had this for at least 6 years now. What can I say... It's totally ruined me for all the terrible coffee that costs a zillion dollars a cup. If I could sit it next to my bed I would. I'm happy to spend $2400 on a machine like this. Gold. Pure gold.
I've paid less for cars. But, this old boy is worth it. Do yourself a favour, if you can afford it buy one. You'll save $5.00 every morning for the burnt bitter crap they serve in coffee shops. When it dies, I'm buying another with more buttons & lights.
The silver tray has scratched easily though where the cups sit. That's about all the negs. Oh... It's kind of loud.

Had it for years, still love it!
I've had this for years now, and its still going strong. The milk jug broke, last year, but I ordered another one from the Delonghi website, arrived no problem. It is a little noisy, but I'm used to it. Makes better coffee than the coffee shop where I work! I think this model is superseded now overseas, but I saw it still for sale in DJ's last week.

Some problems with it
Had the machine for more than two years now.I have to grease the infuser all the time, I buy the grease from Bravo in Sydney, if I don't do it about every couple of days it gets stuck and delivers dirty water, no coffee, I have to clean it every couple of days,remove the coffee grounds that get everywhere inside the machine when the infuser does not work properly.I am not happy, out of warranty and out of commission now.
When it works the coffee is beautiful

Love my baby!
I have had my machine for 4 months and absolutely love it - really simple to use and does everything you need in a coffee machine! It can use whole beans or ground beans one touch buttons for pretty much everything a real breeze to use. Would highly recommend this machine to people.
Little loud but I think that is normal for a machine like this

This machine is great. You can set it to auto warm up every morning at the same time hence never waiting to brew your coffee.

reliable, have had machine for 4 months and no problems

I was really nervous about choosing a coffee machine, and considered this to be a good 'middle of the road' choice, pricewise at least. It makes fabulous coffee - I've been nothing but really impressed. It seriously rivals what my favourite coffee shop produces. It is a little noisy, but nothing too extreme or unexpected. You can use ground coffee or beans, and predictably the coffee made with fresh beans is the best. Take note that the manual says that upon setting it up it will take several cups of coffee before it consistently starts mak...Read more
ing a good brew, and this is true. I only need to empty the grounds container and drip tray once or twice a week, and other cleaning funtions are needed much less frequently than that. This is one of the few mid-range automatic models it seems where you can froth your own milk, which I think is great. Makes great babyccinos for the kids! Controls are easy to understand, comes with a great DVD that saves you having to read the manual, automatically rinses and other cleaning functions only need to be undertaken every so often, makes great milk froth would have liked to be able to buy it in silver (not white), can't froth a large jug of milk, only small. It's fairly large.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

This is the first coffee machine I have ever used and so far it is wonderful. It is easy to use, easy to clean and makes a delicious coffee with so little effort. It also looks lovely as I have an all white kitchen and it blends beautifully with the decor.
Easy to use, easy to clean, great looking machine.
Noisier than I expected, but this is the first machine I have ever used so I have nothing to compare it to.

3250 coffee's and counting!
We love this machine! With no experience in making coffee we simply wanted a machine that would allow us to make a nice coffee at home with no mess and no fuss.We have had our machine for 2 years now and it gets used daily from 2 coffee's a day for my partner and I or upto 50 coffees a day when we have had friends over for breakfast. We have even loaded it in the car to take away with us and it still makes a great coffee. Simple to use with the option to create a coffee that caters to almost any coffee drinkers tastes. We now have regular frie...Read more
nds and family who visit specifically for their weekly coffee and it is so easy they can even make it themselves. Bigger bonus it is self cleaning! The counter on our machine says we have now made 3250 coffee's in the last 2 years and the machine still keeps ticking. Easy to use push button, simple instruction guide, self cleaningSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Questions & Answers
Peterasked
I have found this machine fantastic and used it extensively However when I pressed the steam buttons (left and right) the buttons pushed in and would not release. Anyone had this problem?
1 answer
Might be worn or debris between the button.
To get to removing the display / buttons,remove the screws behind the unit first then the side panels slide off.
Then you have access to the control panel button screws, remove those and then you can take the display with the
buttons off to clean or replace. (Ribbon cable from the Display can be unplugged carefully)
Easy to order new buttons off ebay.com. appox 15bucks for a whole new set of buttons.
(I replaced all of mine since were worn.)
Bartonasked
How do you get the infuser out if it is jammed in. Pressing the red buttons does not release it. It appears to be held in at the bottom
3 answers
Is your machine off? Machine must be off to do it :)
Yes power is off. Left red button seems to release but not the right one
You must turn the machine off from the power button on the machine's control panel. It will run through the shut down cycle then turn itself off. Then turn off the power switch on the back of the machine, and also at the mains if you wish. This will reset the machine and position the infuser in the correct position for removal.
Odetteasked
I've just had this coffee machine delivered and I note the manual references a water tester to test the hardness of the water which was not included. Could other owners please let me know if it was in the box? Also should a milk jug come with it also? Thanks!!
3 answers
Hi Odette
Yes water tester should be in the box. Just a small strip of paper that gets dipped in the water. Milk jug is also included as it is built to insert in place of water spout.
Yes strip should be included
Thanks!!! I found the water tester OK but no milk jug unfortunately.
