Perfect Espresso Machine for Those Who Want Value & Quality

This Espresso machine is great for people who love good espresso but can't afford fancy machines. In fact, I think I like this machine better than the fancy machine my mom has. It's super easy to use and quick- I make a latte every morning before work. And in fact you CAN froth milk with the wand- it takes a little finagling but the trick is to rotate the mug around the wand. It may take a couple of tries to get a routine down but by the third time you'll get the hang of it. And may I suggest- if you're making lattes, make only one at a time to get good foam. Enjoy!

Espressos and Cappucinnos beat a coffee any day

I believe this is my fifth espresso and cappuccino maker (I have worn out the previous four) and this DeLonghi EC5 is by far the best one. It is easy to use, easy to clean, takes up little counter space, while producing the best espressos,cappuccinos and mochas I've made using a Steam-Driven home brewing system. I don't even bother using the glass carafe anymore except to measure and pour the correct amount of water into the machine. I put my favorite cup directly under the filter when I make an expresso, latte or mocha for myself and if a friend joins me I put two cups under the double spouts of the extended filter, which sits lower, allowing me to make two at the same time while foaming the milk. It saves time, makes less mess, and warms the cups at the same time. Perfect for those cold winter mornings allowing me more time to relax and enjoy a hot beverage while visiting with a friend. Less mess, less fuss, less time, and my friends and I believe it produces the best beverage yet while allowing us more time to visit.

Brilliant!

I bought this machine in the UK and will definitely purchase one when we are back in the US. It makes as good or better latte's than you can get at any cafe and pays for itself very quickly. I was surprised how well the milk frother works and the coffee comes out nice and strong. Everyone who I have made coffee for from this machine - has ordered one for their home as well - its that good. You won't be sorry.

My first espresso maker

I really love this little machine! It's easy to use, easy to clean and I make myself a huge 4-cupper each time. I use a soup mug for my cappuchino. It works fine and totally fits under the frother.

Great for the price

While this isn't one of those amazing machines, you get more than your $ worth. I use it at work and make my officemates green with envy as I brew up a triple shot and top it with freshly steamed milk. On my first one, the milk steamer was broken, so for the person who rated it badly - return yours and get a new one - I did and now I love it! If you're a coffee snob, go spend $500, but if you just like convenient, tasty espresso this puppy is an absolute workhorse. I use it every day, my meetings go very well ;^)
