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. ...

Review of Delonghi BCO 255
Advantages: None come to mind Disadvantages: A £650 coffee machine that doesn't make coffee
I regret not taking heed of the advice given on this site before I purchased this machine, so I urge you to learn from my mistake - DO NOT BUY THIS AEG COFFEE MACHINE. After 18 months of ownership I would say that I have had 13 months of functioning coffee machine. The rest of the time it lies dormant waiting to be fixed or replaced. I've had 2 machines now and the 2nd one has just broken, so its clear the issue is a fundamental design flaw. No matter ... ...I am in the process of trying to persuade AEG to give me my money back so I can go and buy a decent coffee machine. AEG know how hopeless this machine is, because they have stopped making it. Its old stock thats for sale now, but as I say don't be tempted. ...
Advantages: Ease of use and Cleaning. Disadvantages: Not the taste - no crema
...The crema was amazing. This Delonghi needs something similar. Recommendation is a ‘NO’ purely because of the crema issue.
The whole point of buying an expresso machine is to experience coffee as it should be tasted. Unfortunately the experience is more like a coffee filter machine offering, with frothy milk. My taste has been developed from drinking coffee in Italy and Spain. ...
