Detailed Commentary
The Caffe Figaro worked great for what I needed for the first two or three months. I was very pleased with what it did for the money I paid. It frothed the milk very easily, the coffee and espresso both tasted good.
However, you could not use the coffee maker and the espresso maker at the same time. After the coffee maker registered as needing to be cleaned, no matter how many times I would clean it or what I used, I could not get it to register as clean again. Since then, it has gotten progressively slower to brew a pot. The last pot of coffee I made with it, took over two hours and tasted very stale and bitter.
I will not buy anything made by Delonghi again. I feel the Caffe Figaro was a waste of my money. Not to mention the pain it caused me, when I had to wait that long for a cup of coffee.
Buying Experience
Everything was fine, I got my coffee maker one day after I ordered it- without paying for overnight shipping.
