According to our Fully automatic espresso machine expert
You can control the De'Longhi PrimaDonna ECAM550.75.MS remotely using your tablet or smartphone. With the De'Longhi app, you can create your own favorite coffee recipes without leaving your couch. Save them to your personal profile so you'll always have them available. You can do the same for your partner or friend, so they can enjoy their favorite cup of coffee as well. A cappuccino or latte macchiato only takes the touch of a button. After making a milk specialty, you can clean the milk system by pressing on the clean button once. The espresso machine has a separate ground coffee container. That's great for making a cup of decaf. The included hot water spout can be used for making a cup of tea.
If the coffee machine malfunctions, De'Longhi offers home service with their own technicians and you get a 3-year warranty.With the free Coffee Link app, you can view entire option menu. With the scrollbar, you can adjust the amount of coffee and milk up to a millimeter for each coffee specialty. You can also choose the exact temperature and aroma strength for every cup of coffee. Thanks to the app, you can turn off the machine or turn on the heating plate remotely. Last but not least, the app gives you access to useful instruction videos, which contains a step-by-step guide to cleaning the machine.

It is our second De'Longhi espresso machine. The previous one had made 17807 delicious cups of coffee for us, so the successor had to be from the same brand. This offers even more possibilities to make different delicious coffees. A big, well deserved compliment to both Coolblue and De'Longhi !!!

I think this coffee machine is the most complete device you can buy for the amateur user. Most coffee recipes can be made at the touch of a button including: Coffee, Espresso, Cappuccino (few variations), Latte macchiato, Doppio, Long, Caffelatte, Coffee Americano. While unpacking the device, you have to put it together yourself. A manual is included, but I don't find it very clear. (I don't want to read texts but drink coffee!) The machine has a clear display which can be operated with the touch buttons next to the display. The main menu has the option to switch user profiles where you can easily switch between 8 users. You can adjust and save all coffee recipes per user. Unfortunately you can only choose an icon for the user and the name (Profile 1 to Profile 8) of the profile cannot be changed. It is therefore important to remember who has which profile number. In the settings menu you can check how the recipes of your profile are set. To change the settings for the recipes, you must create the relevant recipe. So you can't adjust the profile on 1 point, but you have to reset the entire drink. When adjusting the recipe, the device shows what the factory settings are for each part of the recipe. I think the coffee itself tastes good and there was a nice foam layer on the coffee. The grinding of the beans is fairly quiet, which is pleasant for the environment. The big disadvantage is that you can't make 2 cups of coffee at the same time. For the beauty there is a warming plate on top of the machine, but making 2 cups of coffee is still my preference. By the way, you can make 2 espressos at the same time. You have to choose this as a separate recipe in the menu and can therefore not be done with a simple push of the espresso button. You can tap hot water with different types of tea settings. The idea is that different types of tea should be drunk at different temperatures. I don't go that far with tea so I've used the hot water feature a few times. Actually, I don't think the device is suitable for tapping hot water for tea. It takes a considerable amount of time for the cup to fill with hot water and my tea glasses were too big to take full out from under the fill opening. Of course, tea is not the drink this device is intended for, so I don't really think this is a negative point on the device. To be able to tap the hot water, a pipe is needed which must be removed if you want to connect the milk reservoir. The milk reservoir consists of a container, an upper part with a pipe and a tube through which the milk flows out of the container. The whole can be easily assembled and disassembled and connected to the device separately. So you can easily put the milk in the fridge after use. The milk layer is a nice foam layer and the amount of milk can also be set in the recipe. After each drink in which milk has been used, the device will show in the display that the rotary knob on the milk container must be turned to the cleaning position. After this, the device will rinse briefly, removing milk residues.
The appliance rinses during switching on and off. I find that this takes a bit long and a lot of water is also flushed through. The water tank and waste container of the appliance are both a decent size, so refilling and emptying should not be done too often. The water reservoir itself is not very easy to handle. It's easy to hold the full reservoir with both hands, but you still have to turn off the tap while filling. In the end everything works and when the reservoir is back in it does not have to be for a while. I think the look/design of the device is neat except for 1 point. On the right side is the transparent water reservoir containing the white water filter. You see this filter very much, which is not really nice. DeLonghi could have handled this a little better.
The LED light is a nice addition, but the light goes out very quickly. The light is turned off again almost immediately after the coffee is prepared. It is a pity that this does not stay lit for a while so that you can remove the cup lit from under it. Finally, I tested the app. Unfortunately I couldn't get a cup of coffee from the garden as my range was limited to about 10 meters. I don't think the app really adds much since you still have to put your cup under the device to fill it.
In summary: A very clever device (may also be for the money) with which the whole family can drink all their coffee recipes and store them how they want. But it's a shame that 2 regular cups of coffee can't be tapped at the same time. I filmed a few things, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zp3S5UrIb5o

Great machine! if you really like chappocino or latte machiato this is a super machine, within 1 minute you have every drink ready while if you have a cheap device with a steam pipe it takes much longer and cleaning afterwards also takes a while.
Everything is easy to set up!
