- Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2025Color: Stainless SteelVerified PurchaseI’ve been using this machine for about a month now but I wanted to use all the features and give it some time before I wrote a review. I was a barista for several years and this is my fourth? at-home espresso machine in a few years, and I LOVE it. I genuinely didn’t know you could make espresso with bright crema on top at home until I got this machine. The texture of my lattes is smoother and creamier, the quality is better, and it’s so easy to use.
I’ll start with the cons because I only have a few:
•the steaming wand doesn’t move as much as others I’ve used and if I have a full pitcher of milk I either have to life the machine or spill the milk to remove it once it’s steamed. It also occasionally takes a bit of time to get going.. initially it seemed like it was getting slower over time but it seems more sporadic now.
•the auto shutoff is way too quick, IMO.
PROS:
•The water tank and drip tray are both really large and do not have to be refilled or emptied often
•very straightforward and easy to use once you figure out your initial preferences
•there are several options for grind level, water heat, etc and once you figure out the best one for your coffee it makes really high quality espresso every time
•the double shot is larger than most which I really like, but there’s also the single shot option
• it’s SO easy and mess-free to grind and tamp the beans
•milk frother can get milk really hot, and really smooth
•I love the americano option, it makes things so easy
• the cold brew is pretty good considering how quickly it can be made

- Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2024Color: Stainless SteelVerified PurchaseAs an amateur coffee enthusiast, i was excited to upgrade my home espresso setup with the De'Longhi La Specialista Arte Evo espresso machine. After just a week of use, I'm already impressed with how it's transforming my morning routine. Setting up the machine was a breeze and i was pulling my first shot within minutes of unboxing. Speaking of shots, i was blown away by the quality of the espresso this machine produces. Rich, full-bodied, and with a beautiful crema - it's cafe quality right in my kitchen. What sets this machine apart is its versatility. Not only does it make excellent espresso, but it also offers options for cold brew and Americano. A pleasant surprise was the hot water function - it's super convenient when i want to change things up with a quick cup of tea! The programmable buttons for single and double shots, along with three temperature settings takes the guesswork out of brewing. I love that it automatically knows when to stop the extraction, ensuring consistency with every cup. The pressure display is a game-changer for an amateur like me. It works in perfect harmony with the built-in grinder, allowing me to easily adjust the grind size and dosing duration to dial in the machine quickly. By watching the pressure gauge, i can see when I've achieved the optimum pressure for extraction, helping me fine-tune my technique with every shot. The steam wand deserves special mention. It heats up quickly and products silky microfoam without scorching the milk. Cleanup is a breeze which i greatly appreciate. The tamping mat is a thoughful addition, ensuring even tamping every time. It's these little details that make the De'Longhi La Specialista Arte Evo stand out. This machine is user-friendly enough for beginners like me but offers enough customization to grow with as my skills improve. I'm excited to continue exploring all its features and perfecting my home barista skills with this fantastic machine.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2025Color: Stainless SteelVerified PurchaseMade great espresso but the grinder adjustment stopped working after 10 months of use. Tried to make a warranty claim through a Delonghi phone call and an email. Sent them a video and had responses from how to descale the machine to resetting espresso settings. None of the responses were related to my problem. Then they kept on trying to close the ticket. Finally gave up on their poor customer service. For a mid priced machine I expect better longevity. Do yourself a favor and get a grinder independent of your espresso machine. And avoid Delonghi unless you like disposable products with no support.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing Experience with De'Longhi La Specialista Arte Evo EC9255.M
I recently purchased the De'Longhi La Specialista Arte Evo EC9255.M, attracted by its features and the brand's reputation. Unfortunately, my experience with this product has been far from satisfactory. Within a short period of ownership, I encountered significant issues with both the grinder and coffee pump ceasing to function. Efforts to resolve these problems through the designated repair service proved frustrating and unsuccessful, compounded by a lack of professionalism and accountability from the service team. Despite multiple repair attempts, the machine remains dysfunctional, with issues unresolved and additional parts missing post-service. This ordeal has not only inconvenienced me but also led to unexpected additional expenses without a resolution in sight. I had high expectations for this coffee machine and the support services behind it, but my experience has been disheartening. I cannot recommend this product based on the quality of customer service and reliability issues I've encountered.

- Let Me Say This:Reviewed in Canada on November 10, 2023
5.0 out of 5 stars Welcome to the coffee snob community.
Let me tell you about my latest kitchen upgrade: the De'Longhi EC9255M La Specialista Arte Evo Espresso Machine. This isn't just a coffee maker; it's like having a personal barista who's always on call, minus the hipster beard and the attitude. With the promise of crafting everything from a robust espresso to a smooth cold brew, it's been like Christmas morning every morning in my house.
The machine itself is sleek, like it's dressed to impress at a coffee connoisseur's ball. And the cold brew function? It's like discovering your dog can fetch the newspaper—it's unexpected and delightful. The espresso it produces has enough kick to wake up a hibernating bear, and the flavor is as rich as my imaginary future as a lottery winner.
Is it the best espresso machine out there? I can't say for sure, because I'm too busy enjoying my home cafe experience. It's like this machine has cast a caffeinated spell over me, and now I'm whipping up coffee creations I didn't even know I craved.
Would I recommend it? If you're looking to add a little flair to your morning routine and expect your coffee to be dressed in its Sunday best, then absolutely. Just be warned: You might become a coffee snob, and there's no going back.
