Review on De "Longhi Magnifica ECAM 22.360 coffee machine, black by Edyta Tulwin ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm satisfied with it, there are only some small flaws.

I don’t understand who writes here about supposedly cold coffee, but I once burned my lips at an average level of hotness, for the first time in my life this happened. After the Rowenta Adagio carob coffee maker, the coffee is just very hot. At the office The site indicates that there is a sound signal for confirming the buttons - in reality it is not. Personally, I didn’t like that she constantly rinses herself, so much water leaves, there is always water in the pan from somewhere. This is probably good, but why flush when you turn it on if it was already washing itself when it was turned off? It would be nice to turn off the "preheat" in order to start faster without running water. It is convenient to prepare a cappuccino, the milk is stored in the refrigerator along with an automatic cappuccino maker. The foam is chic with almost any milk (before, only certain types of milk from a certain manufacturer were whipped with a regular nozzle), just like in a cafe. The adjustment of the amount of coffee / milk dispensed is not entirely clear - there are no visual references (percentage scale, or anything else) to determine the max / min adjustment, because the amount of foam will still depend on milk, and the amount poured coffee - from coffee grinding. You can use ground coffee, but only for 1 cup of coffee. When pouring ground coffee, sometimes it must be pushed into the funnel with the back end of the scoop, otherwise this coffee gets stuck and hangs in the air. It is not clear how the coffee strength is regulated, for example, if you fall asleep a scoop of ground coffee. In the 2022 menu, there is no comma after the word "please". Slightly slows down after warnings, it is not clear how to quickly cancel. The kit comes with a water filter, but did not install, because. We use purified water (reverse osmosis). After 500 cups, it still requires decalcification - it takes a lot of time, laziness. A strip for determining the hardness of water was in the German instructions. The water tank is not completely emptied, there is always water (300 ml) when it asks for topping up, so in reality there is less than 1.8 liters of water, while some goes to rinse.

Pros
  • It is convenient to prepare coffee, autocappuccino machine, excellent cappuccino foam. Hot water preparation. Brewed coffee statistics. Good value for money.
Cons
  • Frequent washing, the pallet is scratched. You can only make one cup of ground coffee at a time. There is no handle on the milk bottle. Broke twice. Once during the warranty period after 2 years (purchased in November 2022) and 4 thousand cups, the second time less than a year after the warranty repair with the same symptoms. In the event of a breakdown, you cannot prepare cappuccino, while espresso prepares norms. And, judging by the reviews on the Internet, these coffee machines have one "disease" - the electrovalve that is needed to make cappuccino fails, the gaskets change. I'm taking away a star for this. Before that, I was delighted with the coffee maker, and it’s inconvenient and there is no time to constantly drag it to the service with it, now I would take a different model.
