Lukewarm, Yet Satisfactory.
Review of Delonghi BCO 120 by
Necormancer
Advantages: Quick and easy, nice filter coffee!
Disadvantages: Hot plate is too hot, No crema layer on espresso...
...Cup espresso add on
By DeLonghi (Duh :P)
Now to the review!
Espresso Pump:
The first time i used the espresso pump i was sort of impressed... The problem was the coffee was kinda cold, which i couldn't understand since it was steaming hot when it came from the carafe. Also, i used Illy beans, so i knew the quality, and the creama layer was very small and disappeared soon. A bit disappointing, but the coffee itself tastes good =] But it would ... ...but for £35, well lets just say you get what you pay for. It's lucky chance if you get creama layer or not... It's so unpredictable.
Milk Frother
Not very impressed. You can't leave the darned thing alone! Instead of having a jug and a stand, you need to hold a mug under a flimsy little nozzle (Because the milk frother doesn't go far and you can only get a jug to a certain height, and so you meed to use a mug) and burn your hand. Greatness. To ...

Small but powerful
Review of Delonghi EC7 by
evilmissf
Advantages: Easy to use, very fast , great for a busy lifestyle
Disadvantages: specifically for cappuccinos and espressos
This is the Ideal machine for a Wedding present and the single person.
It comes with adaptors for different size cups and a 3 bar pressure milk froth steamer (not agitator like some small machines), also comes with a coffee strength selection feature so you don't have to put up with coffee thats too weak or too strong. It's small, very fast if your in a hurry, I have a cappuccino ready in about 3 minutes,and it doesn't take up half of your bench ... ...your a coffee power drinker and drink it by the gallon, this machine only makes espresso and cappuccino which is perfect for me.
All the power of a larger machine in a smaller package. Excellent value for money at around £20 and I wouldn't swap mine for anything. Think this one might surprise you. ...

Disappointing
Review of Delonghi BCO 90 Otello by
Queenofsheba
Advantages: easy to use good clear instructions included
Disadvantages: flimsy parts in milk frother
...Model Delonghi BC90 Café Otello This is a combination coffee maker, which basically means you can make three different types of coffee with the same unit, filter, espresso and cappuccino. It comes with an instruction leaflet and video to guide you and two-year parts and labour guarantee. The video shows you all the parts very clearly and how the machine should be used and cleaned. You get one large glass carafe (holds up to ten cups for filter coffee) ... ...at all. So I emailed Delonghi to tell them about it, and to ask for a replacement part instead of going to the trouble of sending it back for repair. About an hour later they got back to me to say that the part I needed was in the post and sure enough two days later it was in my hand. The only trouble was the part in question needs a little plastic seal to stop the milk from leaking into the machine and they hadn't sent that so I had to get the one ...

Delonghi EC730, an honest opinion.
Review of Delonghi EC730 by
pipz1234
Advantages: Great coffee, a must!
Disadvantages: Sticky buttons
...investing. I finally found the Delonghi EC730, it had no negative reports that I could find and looked well built and sleek... Just what I was after.
When I received my coffee maker I was not disappointed. The machine was very easy to use and the coffee it produces is delicious. (I would recommend using ground coffee rather than the pods)
One small problem, I probably should've realised that no normal mug would fit underneath the dispenser, so ... ...but the advantages out weigh this by far.
The cappuccino device is reasonably easy to use. I haven't perfected it yet, but have not felt the need to do so. The machine is easy to keep clean but drips slightly; however, I think this is a problem with most coffee makers.
Once again, not disappointed. This is a good value for money machine that I would recommend to anyone. ...
