DeLonghi ESAM3500.N Magnifica Digital Super-Automatic Espresso/Coffee Machine This is my second DeLonghi Magnifica Digital Super-Automatic Espresso/Coffee Machine I have owned within the last 2 years. I got my first model 4500 from Starbucks and it lasted about 2 years. My warranty expired on my old machine so I bought this one on Amazon. I have checked all the online vendors and Amazon has the best price on this machine. Free shipping and no taxes saves you about $250. I found this machine on Ebay for less but DeLonghi will not honor Warranty service on Ebay stores. So beware. DeLonghi customer service has been top ... Read Full Story

Pocket-Lint.com came up with a good review of the Lavazza A Modo Mio coffee machine . About its style Pocket-Lint.com says: As for styling the Mio is undoubtedly retro, but the cute curves, high-gloss two-tone finish in silver with red, black or white mean it will sit happily in the sleekest of modern kitchens.

My old ... Read Full Story

DeLonghi ESAM3300 Magnifica Super-Automatic Espresso/Coffee Machine I've had this machine for over 3 years now and have used it daily with whole beans only (self imported from Brazil or Vivace from Seattle). Makes a decent espresso every time. I've never had to do any maintenance on it except for a weekly 1 min cleaning. I only wish that it could make a stronger espresso shot. I always have it the on max setting, but the espresso comes out slightly on the watery side. Still much better than starbucks and cheaper in the long run, but doesn't compare to the high end coffee joints like ... Read Full Story
