De'Longhi 0132193272 Lattissima One EN500.W Single Serve Coffee Machine, 18/10 Steel, 1400 W, 1 Liter, White

Since lockdown started I've been missing my in-office coffee shop, so this was an essential purchase! Look I've had Nespressos in the past but a much cheaper machine than this one, and I'm glad we went for a nicer brand name one. Everything feels high quality. The colour is really nice, sort of halfway between buff and grey. Its matte finish which means no ugly fingerprints and water marks. Coffee My partner drinks black coffee and I drink lattes or sometimes Americanos with a dash of milk. It works fantastic for a variety of drinks. The milk frother is especially great as it's much easier than the separate ones. To make an Americano you just need to do two lungos one after the other in the same cup. This makes roughly the amount of water you'd expect in a medium American from Starbucks etc. There is also a setting to change the water amounts or the standard button press so you can customise it, however because we have a variety of coffees we have just kept the standard settings and simply press the button a second time. The milk frother is so simple to use. You don't even need to tell the machine that you are making a milky coffee. When the milk frother is full the machine just knows. It provides the latte warm-up setting if the unit is attached and has liquid in it via a sensor, very clever! It makes a good smallish latte, if you fill the frother to the top line. More of a cappucino if you fill it to the bottom line. Cleaning I like to keep the kitchen clean and hate having to worry about scrubbing more bits and pieces. Luckily it's pretty easy to clean. The trip tray and the tray for the empty pods are easy to take apart. They are completely dishwashable or easy to rinse out and dry. The milk frother comes apart into 5 bits which just need a rinse after use (immediately, I would recommend, as warm milk goes nasty very quickly and smells awful!) I just rinse through all 5 parts quickly under the tap after use and then pop it in the dishwasher for a deep clean. We live in a medium hard water area and the "descale" warning feature is great. We just got our first ping after about 5 months of daily use. We bought descaling liquid from Nespresso and popped it through. It has a full proper descaling cycle. Again, you don't have to do much. There is a small pipe attached to the back of the machine and once you've plugged that in the machine just "knows" its in descale mode and carries on its job with little intervention beyond adding the liquid and putting a tray underneath to catch the water. Overall, I absolutely love my Nespresso! Couldn't live without it.

Great little machine, quick and easy to use and neat on the countertop. Compatible pods are easy to get in mosr supermarkets. Coffee is really strong and milk froths perfectly. Much better than my old gaggia. Wish I'd got one sooner!

Hello guys, I waited 5 months before writing a review for this product. I am so happy so far. I had previously a Delonghi product which was kind of manual frothing and tamping (Starbucks style) but I return this product back because air pressure reduced day by day and milk not become frothy anymore. It was too loud and takes 10-15 minutes to make a single cup. But with this machine, literally I leaped to another age. It make perfect latte, espresso that is better than any coffee shops. And It is very quick, like in 5-6 minutes you get 2 coffee. There is 2 issue (not major but need to consider) with this system. 1-If you are doing 2 cups of coffee, you need to de scale around every 3-4th month. This means you need to buy de scale kit from nespresso. (8-10 euro as I remember). If you use vinegar for descaling, you may end up other issues. 2-You need to wash milk frothing module in every use. I get used to wash it very quickly. In every 3 use, I put these things in a Box with full of warm water (45C) and a bit washing liquid, than mix a bit with your hand and wait 12 hour. Than rinse before use. If you don't do this process, milk frothing system blocks and make strange noise with steam. But if you do that, than you are good. You are dependent on Nespresso coffees but they are really good and you can find couple of alternatives as well. Hope the machine will not breaks and I don't have to update this comment 😀 Price performance wise, I recommend this product and happy to bought it. Enjoy!

So to start off I got the white version in Used - Acceptable condition from Amazon warehouse. The description mentioned that there were “cosmetic imperfections” and scratches pretty much all over the item and the price was £100 instead of £200 brand new. So the item arrived without its box/manual/trial pods as described, but the main piece is pretty much in perfect condition. Some very very very minor marks on the top, but it basically looks brand new. Would I pay double(an extra one hundred pounds) for a box I’ll throw out and a manual I can get online that I won’t read anyway along with some pods I can buy for a couple of quid in the supermarket - absolutely not. So if you’re thinking of getting one don’t be afraid to try your luck on the warehouse versions. You can always return it if yours turns out worse. Now to the product itself - £100 is a scandalous price for a little coffee machine, but it’s probably one of the best ones you can get and it cost the same as the more basic ones so it evens out a little bit. The water tank holds enough for a good few cups which is nice compared to the smaller tanks other machines have. The main function for the 2 sizes of servings works perfectly as you’d expect. The milk park also works really well and I’m not sure how you could manage to have any issues with it. The milk pretty much dribbles out the end into your cup(there no way it’ll shoot out all over your floor like I’ve seen others mentioning). It’s quite easy to clean the milk part too which I’d recommend doing after every use. It splits up into 3 pieces and you can just rinse them out and put it back for the next use. The more milk you put in the tank, the more will come out - make sure your cup/glass is big enough to hold that much so it doesn’t overflow. It’s a good device overall if you’re willing to put up the investment and definitely check out the warehouse options.

Bought this as a gift for my partner. He absolutely loves it, uses it daily. The milk frother is a little bit fiddly and never uses all the milk but other than that the machine is excellent. We both love the large water tank and the ease of cleaning. I was unsure about the colour but it blends in really nicely in the kitchen, it’s cool toned so really matches our cupboards well!

This machine is a very good one, but most of the time there's coffee dripping from the nozzle which bothers me a lot.

Aside from being an overall well-designed product, the coffee is delicious! It is relatively easy to use the machine but read the instructions beforehand so that nothing is accidentally spoilt in the unboxing and set-up process. Additionally, it comes with a pack of 14 Nespresso capsules. I would also not recommend using dupes as my reading online has confirmed that even though this machine does not use a barcode system -- dupe versions tend to clog the internal workings or give weak coffee.
