REVIEW: DeLonghi EC155 Espresso Maker

Submitted by Paula on November 30, 2008 – 11:49 pmNo Comment

delonghi-ec155-espresso-makerThe DeLonghi EC155 Espresso Maker would have to be one of the best value for money espresso makers on the market today. With it’s Italian design and engineering this Delonghi coffee maker has the features that make this stand out from its peers.

One of the best features of this machine is the ability to take both ground coffee and pod coffee. For convenience sake, the pods are a quick and easy way to make coffee but the beauty of this machine is that you can also use your own ground coffee. You have the choice of convenience or complete control.

The second really cool feature of this espresso machine is that it has a dual-function filter holder. So not only does it filter but it also mixes air into the brew. So what’s so good about that you’re probably asking? Well the air is what creates the smooth frothy topping, or crema as it is called, on the top of your espresso.

What We Like

  • It has a removable water tank which makes it easy to fill.
  • It has a removable drip tray which makes clean up a lot easier.
  • The self priming operation means that you don’t have the problem of start up preparation.
  • You can use both ground coffee or ESE (Easy Serve Espresso certified) pods in this coffee maker.
  • It comes with a swivel jet frother for making cappuccinos and lattes.
  • The nice compact design means it won’t take up too much space on your counter.

What We Don’t Like

  • The frothing wand is quite low so will require a frothing cup to fit.
