Editorial Review

Caffe Parma is about the easiest and most sensible way to enjoy the taste of espresso, without any fuss. Though, perhaps, not considered true espresso because the bar pressure may be considered too low by afficionados, this steam powered maker delivers the essence of what espresso is like and provides a deeper, richer, and more satisfying experience to the avid coffee drinker. Convenient top-fill water tank Large removable drip tray for easy clean-up Espresso filter, espresso tamper, and measuring spoon are all included

I wouldn't reccomend this product. It doesn't heat well at all, and it runs out of steam before the mild is even room temperature.

Comment:

The expresso part of this machine works great, but it does not generate enough steam to froth the milk. Very disappointing, would not recommend this product.

Cheep plastic Steam Nnob melted on first use, where is the safety ? The old saying you get what you pay for is correct here. Price looks good, the the Quality is very poor. If you want a Espresso Maker pay the price and get a quality one.

While the machine may make 4 espresso shots it only steams one cup of milk per 4 shots. Very ineffective when everyone wants a latte. I wish I had purchased the Mr. Coffee.

i've owned this product for several years now. it may be plastic, but don't let that fool you. for the inexpert, this machine is super easy to use. and for the expert barista like myself, the espresso tastes pretty darned good. i make a mocha nearly every morning. i don't use the frothing wand 'cause i'm used to a high-powered one. i heat my milk on the stove or in the microwave. for this price, it's worth the money. lately, however, i have noticed the steam is escaping from the lid. which means, i think, the seal is not working properly. but, i've gotten what i paid for out of it, which was about the same price as amazon. like i said, i've had this machine for several years. and for a delonghi product, the quality can't be beat!
