Review on De'Longhi EC685M Dedica Deluxe Espresso Machine with Automatic Features, Metallic by Agata Cicho ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

Because this is my first coffee maker, my view is necessarily quite personal. This item has been in my possession for close to two years now. I am quite happy because I did not even imagine that the coffee would turn out as well as it does in coffee shops (of course, with a certain skill). Purchased an additional one for my family members. The type of coffee plays a significant role, the machine itself won't perform a miracle if you pour the cheapest coffee there, and judging by the reviews that they write here, people do it, and then they say that coffee is the same as coffee machines. [C]offee is not the same as coffee machines. [C]offee is not the same as coffee. It is not accurate! It is difficult to find a product with a quality build in this price range, but the build quality is neither terrible nor flawless. The horn is of high quality and made of metal; however, the cappuccinatore is made up of rubber hoses and a metal nozzle. Although it is effective in performing its function, the fact that it must be disassembled and cleaned after each use makes it inconvenient to use. They claim that it is loud, but I can compare it to an automatic coffee machine that I used to use at work; not only did it cost three times as much, but it was also significantly noisier. Exist silent versions of these kinds of machines? I made a decision, similar to probably a lot of other people, between a coffee machine and a manual carob coffee maker, and I do not regret selecting this alternative. Less difficult to maintain, and less costly to fix if something breaks. It takes about four to five minutes to make two cups of cappuccino.

Pros
  • Quality of construction and simplicity of design (relatively)
Cons
  • Before beginning the coffee-making process, the temperature of the hot steam coming from the cappuccinatore needs to be reset. It is essential to keep a close eye on the amount of water that is contained in the barrel, since failure to do so can cause the compressor to behave erratically and produce an annoying noise.
