Delonghi EC330S Espresso Machine

Advantages: well priced, very easy to use
Disadvantages: steam arm is temperamental

...I bought the Delonghi EC330S after realising I was slowly emptying my bank account paying for numerous Starbucks' every week (even more after they opened one a two minute walk from my flat). Definite plus point in its appearance, it looks stylish and fits in well in modern kitchens especially. It does make good coffee, and although you need to warm the machine up, once you're used to doing this it really isn't a hassle. Although the previous reviewer recommended stocking up on pods, I would advise anyone to either buy coffee beans and a grinder or buy fresh coffee ground for espresso machines, as pods don't really make the most of having a machine such as this. A disadvantage of having this product are the steam arm is very temperamental and sometimes just doesn't emit much steam (despite being thoroughly cleaned). Also, if...

DeLonghi Treviso - By Hook Or By Crook, You WILL Last Three Years

Advantages: Inexpensive, makes good basic coffee
Disadvantages: Tiny tank capacity means filling it every time. A bit noisy

...Oh yes, make that three appliances that have crapped out on us in recent months, having had very little real use ? our Party Gear iPod dock, our Rexel Shredder and now our Morphy Richards Espresso machine that promised so much with its prestigious build quality and yet lasted three years of merely occasional domestic use. With hindsight, the perceived build-quality of the latter appears to have been ?all fur coat and no knickers?. I can?t bring myself to scroll back through my opinions to find out how much it cost, but it was over a ton, of that I?m sure. I?d only upset myself anyway. IT HAD TO GO It?ll come as no surprise that I?ve decided to buy something cheaper, covered with an extended warranty this time. Hence it was that I recently found myself in Comet paying £70 for a DeLonghi Treviso, but before you all start...

Magnificent Espresso - Delonghi Magnifica Auto Espresso Machine

Advantages: Excellent consistent espresso. Fully automatic. Easy to use and maintain.
Disadvantages: Initial outlay. Large footprint on worktop.

...a morphy richards pump driven espresso machine and was amazed with the difference. It was at this point that my love for coffee really took off and I became mesmerised by the different tastes and drinks you could create with the different beans, grind, temperature etc and I was hooked. After a year or two and one or too many trips to Whittard I kept gazing at the 'super automatic' machines that delivered excellent espresso consistently at the touch of a button. These machines cost £100's and it was always a dream until one christmas I took the plunge. I test drove the Delonghi and the closest Gaggia and I knew the Delonghi tasted better and was better for value for money at £100 cheaper. I was sold. I purchased my Magnifica from Whittard of Chelsea, Cheshire Oaks for £349. This included 500g of free coffee, a descaler kit, milk jug, thermometer...

The sleek and sexy Delonghi Kettle

Advantages: Looks great, boils water, makes great tea, can hide chord
Disadvantages: None

...What can you say about a kettle, well not much really, does it boil water, yes, ok great, it's done its job but in conjuction with my review on my fabulous Delonghi toaster I didn't want to leave the kettle out and thought I would write a little about that too. As reviewed with the toaster, my husband and I picked the Delonghi kettle purely for its sleek and sexy design. The kettle comes in a lovely gun metal grey colour and is metal not like theses regular plastic types kettles you can pick up for a fiver in most shops. Ok, so it is a bit more expensive, you can buy it for about £20 in most home stores, such as Debenhams but I have a lovely new kitchen so I wanted something a bit stylish and this fitted the bill. The kettle is almost a dome type shape such as a jug and is bigger at the bottom than the top. It has avery cool arched...

De'Longhi in the house

Advantages: auto stop and humidistat function
Disadvantages: instructions could have been more in depth

...We have been having ongoing problems at our flat for the last few months and have found mould growth to be a serious problem. We were advised to put in a dehumidifier to hopefully be a solution to the dampness in the flat and stop mould from growing any further so I researched into dehumidifiers (honestly, I had no idea what they were or what they did), and finally narrowed it down to a few models from the Argos catalogue. De'Longhi was our first choice with Ebac and Prem I Air to follow. I researched into all the models, prices, manufacturers' websites and read soooo many reviews. I was amazed at how much information there was to learn and understand about dehumidifiers and how they can benefit you. Why do we get mould? It simply starts with condensation. We can be adding approximately 20pints of moisture into the air by our...

Review of Delonghi DEC 180 E

Delightful De'longhi tabletop cooker

Advantages: convenient for small portions
Disadvantages: hard to get hold of

...The De'Longhi 0190 is a fan assisted combination oven and grill. I have owned this little gem for nearly 3 years and I picked it up off eBay for £30. The oven exterior is chrome and black with a glass drop down door. The door has a convenient, well placed handle which keeps finger marks off the glass. On each side of the oven are odd rounded protuberances and I am unsure of their purpose; they could be part of its retro styling or they could conceal some of the cookers innards. It comes with 2 grey enamel cooking trays which are very easy to keep clean as not a lot sticks to them and the stuff that does is easily released with a quick soak. There are 2 shelves and it is possible to raise or lower the position of these. There is one grid insert included to use when grilling foods such as bacon where the fat needs to run off. It...

Review of Delonghi EC330S

Delonghi Toaster - Does exactly what it says on the box!

Advantages: Good toasting quality, looks good, neutral colour suits most kitchens.
Disadvantages: controls a bit plasticy

...Being a rather style conscious individual I had to have the best looking appliances for my first ever kitchen and the Delonghi seemed to fit the bill from both a style bill and a price point. It looks cool and retro and it?s beige colour sits good with any kitchen background. Alone it retails at £39.99 however I purchased the toaster with the matching kettle and got them both for £49.99 all in at Makro in 2007. Since then I have seen this same deal in other retailers so one definitely to look out for! Together it?s a bargain but I don?t think I would spend £40+ on it. Featurewise it has the standard settings one needs in a toaster. It has four slots, which operate in pairs. The toast setting is numbered one to five and is easily operated. The slots are nice and wide and can accommodate thick slices and crumpets, you can also lift...
