    From the start, wand frothing pressure was inadequate. We have only used deminalized distilled water. After one month, frother pressure is so low it cant generate bubbles, micro, small, or big. I am actuallly returning it to Best Buy today at the recommendation of Delonghi customer service. Would not recommend this item until frother improved.

    Open box in good condition issue.

    "May be missing non-essential parts" I purchased an open box espresso machine in good condition and this quote is taken directly from the website for an item in good condition. It was missing the coffee basket, usually there's a single shot and a double shot basket. When I inquired for an additional discount because I had to order essential parts from Amazon, I was told no additional discounts will be made. I also asked for an extension on the 15-day return policy because I could not use the product when I brought it home and was told that 15 days is all I get.

    This machine is so much fun to use. It’s the talk of the house. It’s amazing all around from someone not knowing anything about coffee turning everything from this machine. It feels great to have it in my possession. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good high-quality coffee machine

    Same issue on 2 different machine.

    I have purchased 2 of these in 5 hours. Both have the same issue. Before anything can be done, you have to prime or run hot water thru it. I set it up, filled the resevoir with water, pushed the "tea cup" button (the only one that is lit). Nothing. The motor was running but no water coming out. I dod it over and over. Called support and did a video with them. We did all the troubleshooting I had already done and she told me to return it as it was broken. Same dang thing on two machines! Ugh. No more Prestigio for me. I'll try the La Specialista Arte next then on to a Breville if it doesn't work. Very disappointed.

    Great looking machine, but only has dual wall filters. For a $699.00 machine the espresso quality is mediocre at best. For this money get yourself a Breville Barista Express, doesn't get any better than that.
