The Dedica Maestro Plus is super compact and lightweight, compared to some of the larger espresso machines that take up a lot of counter space. This sleek machine also comes with a quick start guide and there are many tutorials on Delonghi.com to get you started, especially if this is your first espresso machine. I was happy to see that this comes with single and double wall filter baskets, single for those expert, or more seasoned baristas and the double baskets which are perfect for beginners and when using pre-ground coffee. I did appreciate the tip to warm up your cups before making your drinks. I let some hot water sit in my cup for about 30-45 seconds prior to making my latte and it kept my drink at the desired temperature.Now the really good stuff… this device also has a top compartment to store your accessories and an auto steam wand with 3 preset milk temperatures and 3 selections for desired milk texture (microfoam, fine, and dense textures) so you can get creative with the steamed milk in your espresso beverages. The milk comes out sweet, light, and frothy. It also has a removable water tank and the compact design makes for easy clean up.This is my first espresso machine, and I could not be more pleased with the quality and beverage outcomes! This will save me a lot of money frequenting the coffee shops! I am excited to continue to craft different drinks and show off my new barista skills when we have company over and for the holidays. Well done De’longhi!

We had a prior Delonghi espresso machine and an awesome customer service experience with them when it failed under warranty a few years so (quick full replacement, after about a year!), so when that machine died we confidently bought this one, a small upgrade. It was great, so we bought a second a few months later to send with a household family member who was moving out as a gift. This one was half dead on arrival, with the steaming/foaming function not functional. We all tried troubleshooting to no avail… while the first worked perfectly the second did nothing. The first one continues to work great on a daily basis - my point being, it’s not operator error, x 3.Amazon refused a return within the first week of purchase stating it had to be taken up with the manufacturer. Delonghi, instead of being helpful, first sent a clearly AI response doubting all three of our human abilities to properly use this machine, then after calling to force human interaction, required extensive video documentation of the product failure which wasted time, effort and at least half a gallon of milk. After several weeks, they then required the *brand new* device be shipped back in for “service.” This process was prompt, but after returning back home the machine doesn’t work at all and they are still not offering any helpful resolution.I raved about our prior experience when we had a machine failure under warranty which made us happy repeat customers, but this experience with a machine that was non-functional straight out of the box has been so incredibly infuriating. Hours and hours of time wasted on the phone, email and creating video, and it’s looking like $300 down the drain.Lesson learned to not buy appliance like this through Amazon, but I will certainly not buy another Delonghi product with this experience. A 50% chance of losing $300 are pretty crappy odds.
