Review on De&quot Longhi Dedica EC 685, white coffee maker by Edyta Suska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

Plus, it has its benefits. Since counter space is at a premium in a little kitchen, we squeezed a coffee machine, sugar bowl, and two teapots onto a teeny tiny bit of it. Strongly suggest for homes with little space in the kitchen. While operating, noise is there (and cannot be avoided), but vibration is minimal. Rumbling is to be expected if the lid is closed unevenly or if something is placed on top. But if you don't prop inappropriate items on the working equipment, making coffee in the room's kitchen in the morning won't wake anyone awake. The machine is not finicky to use, is simple to clean, and will force its way through a mountain of coffee in a cone (or a slide, in which case you will have to wash it). During the first two years of service, there were zero incidents. If you want your coffee maker to warn you in a timely manner before it stops working properly due to buildup of limescale, make sure to adjust the water hardness setting in the first setup. The coffee machine has two volume settings: one for a cup of milk and another for a cup under the lid. If there isn't enough water in the tank, the machine beeps and shuts off the cooking mode, making it obvious that you need to pour some in before continuing (something to keep in mind if the cup isn't actually empty). The negatives: If you add 1–5 tablespoons of cold cream after the coffee has been brewed at the highest setting on the coffee maker, the resulting beverage may not be hot enough to drink, and you will need to heat it in the microwave if you don't consume it within the following two minutes. Without even unfastening the container, I pour water from the filter into it. A puddle will form under the coffee maker if you forget to wake up, at which point you'll need two extra hands: one to hold the coffee machine, and another to wipe it with a second towel from underneath. Not being able to clean under each and every typewriter is actually an advantage.
