I purchased this coffee machine 3 or 4 years ago. Initially I had issues with the O ring which would come off every time the frothing spout was removed for cleaning (and then it wouldn't froth). At $12 for a replacement from Delonghi this was an extortionate price for a tiny rubber ring. I ended up getting one for free from my local coffee machine repair man. Since then it has NEVER come off and the machine has worked perfectly these years since. I love my machine now! Just hope Delonghi has done something about the ill fitting O rings the machine comes with.

I was given this machine by my kids after I had bought another machine for myself (a Xmas mix up). Now I wish I had kept the machine that I had purchased for myself, but gave to my son. Point is, within the first week, the coffee strength knob fell off, and it took a lot of wrangling to get it back on. The strength of the coffee, even at maximum level, is not enough for me. As for the milk frother, don't even get me started. It is a BIG FAT ZERO from me. For the price of this machine, the milk frothing function is beyond pathetic, whereas the m...

This machine is easy to use and if you drink black coffee, you'll probably love it. However, I drink cappuccino or flat white and it's been a struggle to get coffee that's strong enough. Out of the box factory settings made brown milk. Adjusting it to finest grind and max dose only made slightly browner milk. The crema was really thin and silty also. Tried different beans, still no good. It was suggested to me to use the double shot button, and yes that is stronger, but with 120ml of coffee & 100ml of milk, it's too watery. Started readi...

After initial settings practice and finding good beans the results are great! Have made about 500 great lattes with this machine so far. We always make double-shot by hitting the two-cups button for a single cup or hitting it twice if making 2 cups at once, and the grind set to fine. Someone complained about the alignment of the drip tray holes which could be better, but we catch the machine's start-up and shut-down water in a cup anyway, so less emptying of the tray, its no problem at all. The machine instructions are ok but we found it much quicker / easier to initially learn by watching the machine demo on Youtube. Just search the model name in youtube.

If I could I would give this machine a zero star rating but unfortunately “ProductReview” is a nice crowd and only allow a one star rating and up.
Bought this piece of whatever as a Black Friday – Cyber Monday special as an early Christmas/Birthday present from me to me. Set it up (full of excitement) 3 hours after purchase and did everything according to the instructions. When I reached step 6 of the instruction manual “Turning the Appliance on” this is where the fun and games started.
During the start-up rinse cycle it squirts hot water out ...

Reall poor coffee machine. Used same high quality beans I have used for 10 years in a Saeco, this produces dirty water, no depth or body. Undrinkable, hope they will let me return.

This is a fantastic coffee machine. I prefer it to the fully automatic, and much more expensive Delonghi machines as it makes a hotter coffee if that is your choice. Manually frothing the milk is no hassle at all. Had this after a Krups and Breville machine. Haven't had a problem with it in almost 4 years.

This is one of the best coffee machines I have ever owned, its very user friendly and makes the best coffee to kick start you on your day.
Very easy to clean, clear instructions and just a fantastic all round machine. I use Grinder creama beans and the machine just makes the perfect coffee

Hi,
I purchased my machine about 3 months ago. I have not had one enjoyable cup of coffee yet. It’s very weak and all I can taste is hot milk.
I’ve googled and YouTubed everything. I’ve adjusted the grinding dial, my bean dial is turned to MAX, I’ve purchased the strongest coffee bean available and I’ve descaled. Can someone please help me! I’m really disappointed.

This is a wonderful coffee machine and easy to use. My suggestion is to watch all the videos available about the machine before use.
Do prefer the Grounded coffee cycle as get more coffees than the powdered.
Highly recommend

I purchased this machine a couple of weeks ago as my kids are starting to drink coffee so i needed a solution where i wasn't having to make it on my old manual machine.

I've owned a Rancilio Silvia for almost 10 years, roast my own beans blah blah so wanted a machine that could be a worthy replacement. I knew an automatic wasn't going to deliver quite the same flavour as the manual but getting close was our goal.

In regards to coffee, my gripes are even at highest temp it isn't hot enough but 20 secs in the microwave fixes that so not a hass...

i absolutely love this machine i had breville before which was good but was getting difficult to use with health issues i have .this is like as using a pod machine except you can use beans or ground coffee .havent mastered how to make milk more latte style but am quite happy with it anyway and i found videos on youtube by delonghi which were great which cover everything you need to know

i purchased the machine 3 years ago and use it every day. Once the grind and blend where adjusted correctly it makes a great espresso to long black. Highly recommend

We bought our machine quite a few years ago... four or so, and use it every day. As big coffee drinkers it has had quite a tough life. What we have found is that if it is cleaned and descaled regularly and treated with care it seems to go on and on. Overall I would rank it very highly and when it does die would be happy to buy another.

Terrible product, we had another brand coffee machine for almost 4 years without even single issue, bought magnifica in Feb 2020 after 3 weeks went to JB HI Fi and exchange it due to some issue with coffee blending, after a month put it in repair centre due to frothing issue and was waiting for almost a week without coffee machine, it’s not last, week a go noticed that we could make a coffee once and if need another one waiting time is at least 2 hours due to frothing problem!!!
Rang to warranty team and asked for return or even exchange it,no chance...today put it in repair centre again. Terrible product and useless warranty.

I bought this coffee machine in December 2019 after 15 years of faithful service from a Gaggia coffee machine which finally had to be retired! I was reluctant to go to another brand as my Gaggia had served me so well but bit the bullet and bought the DeLonghi Magnifica S. What a wonderful coffee machine. It is a lot quieter than my Gaggia was and makes a lovely cup of coffee with great taste. I only have a couple of criticisms of it which is why I rated it 4 stars and not 5 and they are I bought the machine in black. It looks beautiful when bra...

Bought this 18 months ago and has been used heavily as we work from home. Just one niggle is that there is a leak under drip tray now and then if not pushed fully home so have to put machine on a tray.

For the last 10 years we have enjoyed many daily cups of coffee with our Saeco Intelia machine. When it at last needed servicing we decided instead to purchase a new machine and keep the old one as a spare. We purchased our De Longhi Magnifica S in January 2020 and have been very disappointed with the flavour and strength of the coffee produced. A couple of weeks ago the De Longhi broke down so we dusted off the old Saeco and using the same beans we were amazed by the quality and strength of the coffee produced. Although our new De Longhi has now been repaired under warranty we will sell it as we can’t go back to drinking such disappointing coffee.

This machine is part of our family - from break fast to after dinner coffees. It makes beautiful coffee and so simple to use and maintain. Just make sure to clean out the insides well every now and then

Coffee is average. Easy to use though drip tray is ridiculously stupid for cleaning. After sales service was not too good. I prefer my old Saeco which I had for thirteen years
