DeLonghi ESAM6600 Gran Dama Digital Super-Automatic Espresso Machine
this is a great machine. it makes perfect cappuccino and coffee, with very little work. if you can afford it get it. the only reason mine went back is that there are alot of plastic parts inside the machine, that I could see wearing out. At this price point I don’t want to see plastic parts. however my friend has had his machine for over two years with no issues.

I have bought two DeLonghi machines and both have failed within a year and both have been sent back for repair two times each. I will not buy another one as the quality is so poor. Find another one to fulfill your needs.

I had a Jura Capresso F9 for a year before it went bad – the company replaced it with a refurbished machine. I had upgraded to the Jura from a Saeco which was an absolute nightmare.
Ultimately I enjoyed my Jura but hated that none of the parts were user-serviceable and I had to rely onthe cleaning tablets to ensure that the machine was ‘clean’.
After seeing the Delonghi in a William-Sonoma store demo I thought it was great – fully integrated single-touch operation and it was SOOOO much quieter than my Jura. I decided to upgrade.
Setup was easy and all the pre-programmed touch buttons seemed to fill to the right quantities. I was nervous after seeing a couple reviews on here complaining about the milk container, but I’ve not had a problem since and I use the machine 3-4 times daily without any issue.
There was another reviewer on here who made a statement I couldn’t agree with more: you DO NOT purchase a fully automatic espresso machine with the idea that it eliminates cleaning or maintenance – that includes cleaning/cycling after each cup. However, this machine makes that process much easier.
The construction and parts are all solid-steel. It shocked me that my $2000 Jura had silver plastic in the front with the audacity to call it ‘chrome’. Yeah, I’ll call that chrome when pigs call themselves fat-free.
Anyhow, I’m quite pleased with this and would certainly recommend the product for those looking to replace or upgrade their current systems. When I have guests the machine has NO problem brewing lattes, regular cups of coffees or straight espressos – I also love that I can change the strength and taste for each individual cup; this is really ideal for multi-person use or guests and something that many other machines can’t do. Or at least without completely changing the taste programming; the DeLonghi has a simple one touch button to change this between multiple taste/strength preferences.
My only ‘con’ is I wish I could turn off the pre-brew function – I don’t see this as an option in the programming screen.
Overall pluses:
– Big water tank
– inter-changeable accessories
– overall construction
– cleaning system/self-cleaning
– taste/strength change (on-the-fly)
– many more…
Cons:
– Instructional DVD didn’t work
– Pre-brew function cannot be modified
– No in-line water filter
– cleaning container by count only – doesn’t recognize if you’ve emptied or cleaned it out sooner

I have owned this machine for about 3-4 years. It faithfully grinds and presses three double long shots every morning, and maybe a decaf preground in the evening and then goes into heavy duty load when my wife plays “barrista” when guests are over.
Not a single problem, never an error and low, low maintenance. Occasional descale and clean the parts.
My only complaint is my spouse set the milk temp too high and I dont know how change it. (but then I rarely drink lattes)
Overall, one of the best purchases I have ever made. I think the magnifica is similar, just different facade.

I purchased this machine around 6 months ago, and absolutely LOVE IT! I was concerned that I would buy an espresso maker and that the lattes would not be of the same quality as I buy from Starbucks, but they are! I can not rave about this machine enough. It is the best appliance I have ever purchased without a doubt. LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!
