De'Longhi Dedica Maestro Manual Espresso Machine

The product is perfect. You must figure out how fine the coffee must be to get the nice foam. This is going to take some time. This is the 6th espresso coffee machine I have bought from Delonghi, and I have always been satisfied. They make great products.Though I must admit something regarding the product. The product name at the front where it says "Delonghi", came inverted 180 degrees (the photo is attached). I can not understand how the QA/QC of a manufacturer like Delonghi allowed this product to be sent out to the consumers. I should have returned the product, but since everything else was working properly, I kept it. I am expecting a gift from Delonghi for the mistake they have made.

De’Longhi EC900M – A Beautiful and Capable Home Espresso MachineI purchased the De’Longhi EC900M on Amazon, and it has exceeded my expectations. Its minimalist and elegant design blends seamlessly into any kitchen, making it as stylish as it is functional.This machine truly brings the barista experience home, offering very good espresso extraction with rich flavors and a nice crema. It’s also easy to use and maintain, making it a great choice for both beginners and intermediate users looking to improve their coffee-making skills.The steam wand, while a bit tricky at first, produces a good microfoam texture—perfect for latte art once you get the hang of it. It does take a little longer than some higher-end machines, but the results are worth it.Overall, the EC900M is a fantastic entry-level option with enough features to satisfy those wanting to refine their espresso-making technique. Highly recommended!

Took a few failures to get the quantity and grind right for this one, but once I did it's great.Dislikes: no feet or sticky pads to secure to counter top, small lightweight machine - it moves with every touch. Steam wand will leak excess water every cup, make sure its over the tray...

The first machine I received had a missing filter, and the descaler had leaked and crystallized in a thick layer all over the box and flaked throughout the product box. The replacement arrived in a shipping box with a large blue tag with no print, indicating either a demo or used model, and several cuts along the box seams, and tears. One large tear on the side, revealed a significantly torn and cut inner product box. Intentionally trying to pass off obviously used and probably returned products is inexcusable and despicable behavior by the manufacturer. This machine cost over $300 with tax; thank goodness the damage/missing parts were obvious; who knows who quickly the machine would have stopped working, and I'd be stuck with the tab.

great item great coffee, easy to use, durable quality. worth spending the $$ for delonghi vs. cheaper brands that did not work

If you area an enthusiastic barista to intermediate this coffe maker satisfy the main requirements. Offer an authentic experience about portafilters, filters, tamper and so on. Follow the instructions of the first cycle and everything will well.

The machine works great except that the Descaler light has been coming on every 8 to 13 days since we bought the machine a few months ago. Descaling the machine takes an hour, which is much longer than our previous Breville machines. De'Longhi says the water impacts the descaling process but we use Primo filtered water. They said this may not have enough minerals. I'm currently dealing with De'Longhi customer service and regret buying this machine.
