Very disappointing and a waste of time. Before purchasing this model, I researched espresso machines under $200. This De'Longhi seemed arguably better than others in the same price range - and in higher price ranges. until I got one of the lemons. The first espresso shots were good, not amazing. My Illy wasn't exactly tasty, but the crema was ok. The next day the machine struggled to force water through my fresh soil. I thought I might have given too many reasons. The next day there was more noise and the pressure seemed weak. I thought maybe I rammed this car too hard. The next shot was a little better, but still loud and slow. cap-cap-cap. A week later, we're trying to figure out when De'Longhi is or isn't forcing water through the bottom and the machine is making more noise when trying to brew a simple cup of espresso. a basket with a minimum of grind and only lightly packed. Nothing. No espresso. Not even a dropper. On the way to work I had to shop in one of the networks. My biggest surprise and disappointment after reading other reviews is that the pressure on this machine seems very light. Some other reviews state how strong the pressure is, but certainly other reviews state the pressure is weak. My car is under pressure. This makes me think the quality control is inconsistent; Some people get good cars and some people get bad cars. I even bought insurance on this espresso machine, knowing that many of these sub-$200 models fail in less than 24 months. However, this failed so quickly that he returned to Revane. Maybe Revain can complain to De'Longhi about all the returns. Update: I've tried a few other De'Longhi espresso machines and am done with this brand. They are no longer the same quality as they used to be. (I like my new Breville.)
