Is this thing reliable?
By Buddha
I don't often write reviews, but this machine deserves every good word said about it. I have owned one for 3.5 years now, and it's still going strong. So if reliability is what has you sitting on the fence, jump off and buy one. On to the details.We bought 3 of these in Germany; one as a wedding gift, one for us, and one for my office at work. Unfortunately, when I moved to the UK, I lost the one in the office (office personnel had "joint" purchased it). The one that was a wedding gift is used every day and is still running fine. The office one was used EXTENSIVELY and was still working at the 1.5 year point when I bid a tearful farewell to it. The one in my home... wow. I'm an espresso nut, having lived in Italy for four years. I work that thing to the bone; it has made at least 5 espressos ~every~ single day of those three years that I was home and is still running strong. The only "bad" cup of coffee that I've had from this thing is when I bought low-quality beans.To address some specific things mentioned in other reviews, I'd just like to say that this thing makes crema so well that sugar will sit on top of it...if you know the trick. Use a properly-sized espresso cup and heat it before making your coffee. Rather than relying on the heater on top of the machine (the silver part in the picture), just boil some water in the kettle and dump it in the cup; it's a lot faster. Adjust the dispensing spout -- the part with two little silver spouts directly above the cups in the picture. That piece moves up and down. The closer you get it to your cup, the better the crema. Adjust your grind; regardless of what others may have experienced, I find the adjustable grind to be perfect. It is, however, VERY dependent on what type of beans you use. I've had to tweak it nearly every time I use a different type of beans to get it to the perfect grind. Also, if you find that the puck grounds get mouldy from sitting too long, my only comment is this -- you're not drinking enough coffee. ;-) Last note before pros/cons/tips -- this machine requires that ~you~ put milk in a container and froth it for cappucino; it's not "fully" automatic, but the frothing bit works great (when used with skill).Pros*Extremely reliable (3 machines monitored over 3.5 years with no flaws)*Near-perfect espresso*Capability to use pre-ground (separate compartment, one cup at a time) for the decaf crowd*Great frothing tool for cappucino (see tips)*Fully adjustable grind, strength (amount of coffee used) and water (for "long" coffees) with single or double cup buttons*Auto shut-off after about 2hrsCons*A touch on the noisy side during start up and when it grinds*Can scramble your freeview signal (though this is the fault of house wiring/antenna, not the machine)*Doesn't know when I'm going to wake up and automatically have an espresso ready for me when I get to the kitchenTips*Read the manual. No, really. Read the manual.*Use quality coffee. Always. (Lavazza Rosso or Espresso is good, Il Pascucci from southern Italy if you can find it)*Pay attention to getting your grind set right*Heat your cups with boiling water before making the coffee*Make all of your espresso shots BEFORE switching to frothing mode for cappucino*Use the descaler that comes with it, then switch to white vinegar for cleaning (has worked for me for 2 years)*Go on vacation to Italy and learn how to make proper espresso and how to froth milk -- it really is an art*Honestly -- it takes time to perfect the frothing. Don't give up until you've talked to someone that knows how.So what am I doing on Amazon looking at these if mine is so reliable? Yep, you caught me ... I'm thinking of buying another one for the office here...

By Clifford
I've had the machine for a few days now and it makes great coffee, using Lavazza expresso beans from Tesco. I have the burr grinder set at a very fine setting to try to get the most out of the beans.The temperature of the coffee is spot on - you can adjust how hot you want the coffee (read the manual).As others have said pull the spout as far into the cup as possible to preserve the crema layer which is excellent (sugar will float on top).Please Don't heat your milk before frothing - micro bubbles are best formed when the milk starts ice cold (5oC)!If you need to make another expresso shot after using the frother just open the milk steamer knob, it only needs a minute or so to cool the machine to allow another shot - do people not read the manual??Its a doddle to clean and you can heat the cups up from the frother attachment, don't be boiling a kettle! I haven't used the ground coffee option yet so can't comment.Buy and enjoy!

Still early days, but promising so far.
By Mr. S. Gascoyne
OK Amazon, no pressure but I decided to buy this machine specifically because of the number of positive reviews. The way I see it, people are far more inclined to report when things are bad rather than good, so this many good reviews had to be a good thing right?Anyway, what about the De'Longhi Magnifica ESAN4200 then? Well I'm going to start with the one thing which prevented me giving it 5 stars - It's no super model! Don't get me wrong, it's not hideous, but there's no getting away from the fact that it's silver painted plastic, and then only the front panel. All the rest is just plain black plastic. If you want a thing of beauty then you need to be prepared to fork out £600-700 on a Jura Ena 5.Now the good stuff:1. It's thoughtfully designed and quite compact. It hardly takes up much more space than my old, manual Dualit espresso machine that it replaced.2. Having the water tank accessible from the FRONT is a great idea, as you can slot it between other stuff on the counter and still fill the water easily. In fact you don't even have to remove the tank, just slide it out a bit and top up with a jug rather than carry it full across the kitchen. I don't understand why other manufacturers think hiding them round the back makes anyone's life easy....3. All the bits that need cleaning (drip tray, coffee grounds bin and brew unit) are easily accessible and removable, and access to the insides is easy for a wipe round. I'm not going to make any comments yet about the build quality as it's early days, and as I say, it's all plastic, but it looks pretty robust.4. The controls are VERY easy to use. I particularly like having rotary controls for water volume and amount of coffee and it's easier to fine tune to suit your taste.5. IT MAKES GOOD COFFEE! You will need to have a good play and experiment to get things right, but so far I'm really quite impressed. Assuming you want an espresso strong enough to use to make a latte or Americano (the latter by adding hot water to the espresso, NOT but running extra water through the grounds using the machine), I'd recommend the following:- Crank the right-hand coffee strength (amount) dial all the way to MAX- Set the left-hand water volume (drink size) to about 9 or 10 o'clock (i.e. about 1/4 of it's total travel)Subject to your particular beans, the above should give you a properly strong espresso shot, with the water stopping just as the colour of the extracted brew starts to fade, rather than continuing until it's like dirty water.Despite the warnings in the instruction manual, I've not found any problems with the speed of coffee delivery, as the pump seems to cope just fine. Obviously this might not be the case if you start adjusting the grinder settings down towards 1 from the factory pre-set 5, but again, this is something to try out.Overall then, a promising start and hopefully the start of a long and happy relationship. If things work out, I'm planning to work this machine like a dog and possibly treat myself to an upgrade to a Jura next year if I find I use this one enough.p.s.After some investigations, I've discovered that the basic internals of this machine (brewing unit, grinder, basically the bits that actually make the espresso) are the same as Delonghi's most expensive machines. So in terms of quality of coffee and robustness of the mechanical bits, this unit is as good as some three times the price. All you get with the more expensive machines is fancy frothing sections and a posh case.
