According to our semi-automatic espresso machine expert
With the De'Longhi ECP35.31, you can make not only a delicious espresso and cappuccino at home, but also a latte. This is because the steam wand has 2 settings, allowing you to foam up milk for a cappuccino, or just heat up milk for a latte. Keep your cups on top of the machine so they'll get nice and warm. As a result, the coffee will cool down less quickly. With the hot water function, you can also make a cup of tea. The machine is also suitable for making coffee with a coffee pod. That's useful if you want to have a cup of coffee in the morning despite being in a hurry. Did you forget to turn off the espresso machine? No problem, because the machine switches off automatically after 9 minutes.
Tip: don't forget to buy a separate coffee grinder for making coffee with freshly-ground beans.
Note: it takes time and patience to learn how to prepare a tasty coffee with a piston machine. This isn't nearly as easy as with a fully automatic espresso machine.Built-in coffee grinder | ||

Design
Predecessor was a Saeco Poemia, who gave up the ghost prematurely due to insufficient decalcification. Was a nice device. The ECP35.31 feels more solid and better materials have been used than with the Saeco. Use is similar to the Saeco. Coffee is hot and tasty, but with less foam. I can't judge long term. In any case, descale this appliance more regularly.

I bought this coffee machine as a second chance and it was really as good as new, makes good coffee if you have a little experience with it so I'm super happy with it

Making coffee takes some practice because the piston is a bit difficult to enter the device and it is not well described what the correct position is in which the piston should be. Once you figure that out, the device is simple to use and makes good coffee/espresso. It is also very simple to froth the milk using the steam nozzle. All in all, I think it's an asset to the kitchen, especially if you like good coffee for a reasonable price.
