"This coffe machine is the best option"
"The coffee machine is very nice looking and looks very professional for coffee people. I received it but didn’t use it yet, I am moving into my new home in February and going to use it in new home to make delicious coffee! Also, the customer service team member Jenn, she is very helpful and tried her best to meet customer needs! I could tell she is a very caring person, she helped me a lot on purchase the coffee maker!"
"Recently purchased DeLonghi La Specialista Maestro . Coffee machine came with a tray slightly bend . Contact the rep from Hime Coffee solutions and she resolved everything and it was very pleasant experience over all"
"Great machine after a few dry runs to set up grind and dosage. Espresso was near perfect after adjustment but you will need to tweak things once you change beans. Milk based beverages were very good with the latte crema system but be sure to carefully clean all parts after you are done for the day. Soaking in hot water with a bit of detergent does the job. I would not recommend placing parts in a dishwasher. The manual steam wand works well. I use only low TDS water from an R/O system to reduce descaling down the road and to optimize flavor. Be careful with power outages as the memory for the machine is lost with a power outage! You will then have to let the machine ' relearn' optimal setup and 'my' settings will have to be reset. Overall a good machine! Hopefully it proves to be as durable as it's good looks!"
"I’m writing this review, after having this coffee machine for almost 10 weeks. It’s a great machine easy to use, it’s just take a little time to learn the tricks how to make perfect morning beverage. I was looking for something that is not fully automatic, and the same time gives you opportunity to play with the process of making expresso. The process of making cream, foam is fully automated the timing to prepare cappuccino or flat white is very short , so you don’t have to spend a lot of time to enjoy your beverage in the morning. Machine is easy to operate, just get your perfect coffee beans, which may take a while."
"Great coffee machine so far!! it's amazing"
"Amazing coffee maker. I also have the DeLonghi Dinamica and this unit allows a much more tailored cup of coffee. As for customer service, if I could give 10 stars, I would. Mo was awesome to deal with. Highly recommend Home Coffee Solutions."
"Best espresso machine I ever own!! It’s like drinking an espresso or cappuccino from your local corner shop every morning in your own house! Every cups is perfection!!"
"This machine doesn’t make nearly as good coffee as some of the other machines I’ve tried. Gaggia is a beautiful machine that makes excellent coffee compared to the new Delonghi La Specialista Maestro, believe me when I tell you. I had my cousins fly in from Fondi Lazio to come see the machine and have dinner and they were not impressed. However; this machine is fairly new and could take some time to cycle the grinds and water through before it starts making some true espresso. Money is not a factor when it comes to espresso, espresso is supposed to be an art. And coffee should taste like you’ve just been around the world to some of the most beautiful places. The coffee tastes like I got it from a nespresso machine lol"
