For a long time I've heard good things about De'Longhi machines, and I finally caved and got one. After unboxing and getting it connected I was greeted with a water testing kit, from that point on I knew this was going to be an amazing experience. 

The machine itself is great, it grinds the beans and makes the cups in one motion. It has adjustable cup size settings, and I love the little flip out holder for the tiny cups, its so cute.

But let me tell you, being able to go to sleep, wake up, walk to the kitchen, and have a fresh ground cup of coffee first thing is a real game changer. I can't imagine going back to regular drip coffee. If you are on the fence, get off the fence, because it's worth it.
