This is a great sturdy little machine. Does all it needs to do and that is make nicely extracted espresso and frothed milk. Easy to use. Great for small kitchens where bench space is precious. Highly recommended.

Follow the directions and it is perfectly functional. Quality of coffee depends on the bean you use. The plastic scoop is the perfect quantity. Water dispenser slides easily up and down.

This machine is compact on the kitchen bench. Delivers excellent froth and great coffee. Easy to use and clean without complication.

I had the exact same model before which was great. This one works well at the espresso level however does not froth the milk for a cappacinno for some reason, ie the frother system doesnt work, just heats the milk. This model had two options on the milk maker, one for hot milk and one for frothing, The previous model simply had the single system which you could do either. Disappointing,

The De'Longhi Dedica Style EC685 uses ground coffee or pods to make drinks you’ll love and has a space-saving silhouette

Big machine features in small package; Takes ground coffee or pods; Makes hot milk; too

Drips a bit after use

Once you find the right grind setting for the machine this is a cracker of a coffee maker. The frother is very easy to use but it's a shame it doesn't come with a steel jug (but can get the perfect one from Kmart for $6). Easy to clean and easy to operate too

A slimmer version of the traditional bar pump machine, the Dedica aims to incorporate all that's attractive about this type of coffee maker, but with a few extra features and in a smaller, more worktop-friendly package.

Barista-style espresso; Slim dimensions; Variable settings

Some boiler overheating issues

Received and doesn't work. Im on vacation and a reorder doesn't make sense. Im very sad about this product. Maybe if i receive a new machine before i leave my holiday in key west i can write a new review. Does not work.

Replacement for a very disappointed melliti ci. Slim light very easy to manoeuvre around the kitchen as I dont have the space. Easy to use . Only down side is after using the steam wand you have to purge the wand that means switching from steam to water and emptying the rest of the tank ,before you...

Makes a lovely coffee, easy to set up and use. Doesn't take up much bench space. Very happy with it.
