Great buy!
I bought this as an upgrade to my previous Delonghi Coffee machine. I wanted a machine with the milk frother attached. I was a bit worried that the coffee would not be hot enough for me as I like my drinks hot,but I altered the temperature of the coffee & it’s great. The machine was really easy to set up & I even managed to set up the app which I don’t really use but there if I ever want to. Lots of coffee options & can’t wait to try out the Cold options in the warmer weather. Really happy with this machine.

Awesome Features
Only had this coffee machine for a few weeks. This was an upgrade from a previous Delonghi machine and it’s great. I love the ability to use the mobile app to switch the machine on 😊it’s the little things in life! Very happy with our purchase.

Fantastic purchase!
Very happy with it, I drink different types of coffee throughout the day so being able to customise your drinks and save them as favourites is a game changer. Foam milk and self cleaning is awesome

Great machine
I first bought a Melitta machine to replace the one i already had but it was rubbish so sent it back. The De'Longhi Eletta Explore is an excellent machine. Have made 56 cups so far, with Americano, Latte and Latte macchiato. Easy to set up, the machine gives you step by step instructions. I followed the instructions to set the grind, Heat and strength this produced a great coffee using 100% Arabica beans. I have set up the app on my phone which makes it easy to set up the drinks how you like them. I have set up accounts on the machine and phone for myself, wife and son and you can save your favourites. When you turn the machine on it runs a cleaning cycle then it's ready to use. My wire does this when she gets up for work then leaves my mug ready. I can then use my phone to make my coffee in bed and it's ready when I go down, so lazy lol So far it's an excellent buy although the price is high. I would definitely recommend De'Longhi.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS MACHINE.
This replaced a previous De'longhi I'd had for years in my caravan. I looked carefully at the features. I have a built in Siemens at home but I decided to keep with De'Longhi - I am so glad I did! It's much better than the Siemens. It was sooo easy to set up - within minutes, because it told you what to do. There are step by step instructions for whatever you choose to make, and you can save your favourite combinations. The display is in colour so it is easier and looks good. It does water only, and milk only. The water is nice and hot so the coffee is hot - my Siemens makes it warm. The hot water only is hot enough to make tea - you don't need a kettle. It has a feature that fills a carafe - which is ideal for breakfast etc table. You can make hot chocolate. It has an app, if you choose to use it. I bought it on offer, but comparing it to dearer models, it offered many more features for the money. This is by far one of my better purchases lately. I absolutely love it, and I would recommend it 💯 %

Easy to use and select coffee required.
I bought this as an early retirement pressie for my partner, he absolutely loves it, he finds it very easy to use and it cleans itself after use. Great machine and very pleased.

Great automated bean to cup
First bean to cup I’ve had and im impressed. I didn’t want anything too fiddly and this fits the bill perfectly. Very simple to use and the coffee blows my old Nespresso pod machine away. The temperature of the drinks is very impressive too.
