I bought the famous De Longhi EC 150 and I am particularly happy and proud of my purchase. I'm not here to make the pub at Amazon or De Longhi but we must recognize that what I expected from my purchase corresponds to my wishes. Easy to use, fast and the issuance of a nearby cafe or sometimes higher than what you can drink in a bar satisfies me fully. Of course we must respect the rules of use and have with you a water and finely ground coffee quality to have the desired result. Given the price (I had no desire to hundreds of euros for a not necessarily better machine), I opted for a known brand (exit so the machine less than 50) and thus also deal with the some small limitations such as the inability to have a drop or stop an automatic shutdown, the obligation to place only slightly higher cups. These are just minor details. I tested there is little with ESE pods in my family for a meal and was delighted with the result. The only uncertainty remaining reliability. I bought it here in September and I do not have the necessary perspective to say that this is a perfect product. If it were to fall tomorrow stranded despite year warranty would be likely to change the judgment I make myself.
This is a domestic machine and not the one we meet in coffee shops, it is not designed to make hundreds of tiny black may shorten its existence very quickly.
If the delivery was quick after ordering and receiving no problem.
