No need to worry about going to a coffee shop for a espresso. With De'Longhi espresso machine you can make a good espresso at home, quicker and cheaper. This was a great addition to my kitchen and happy that I have it. It makes a really good cup of espresso or cappuccino. Heats up quickly so you're not waiting around for that caffeine boost! Holds a decent amount of water, you wont need to refill it after every drink made. Its also easy to clean. Easy to use and doesnt take up a lot of counter space. The photos make it look very bulky and large but it's not huge. It's a nice addition for any coffee lover!
