DeLonghi EC701: 5 facts you should know about the DeLonghi EC701

Made in Italy – Most people will overlook this; But when you have a real Italian espresso machine like mine, you learn to appreciate the Italian manufacturing process more than you do your plastic coffee pot. I used to use a Black and Decker coffee machine, and just run the coffee through it twice to get the same effect as an espresso machine. Upgrading to the EC701 Italian espresso machine has really made me appreciate the quality of a genuine product. And I’m not alone here; DeLonghi EC701 sales have increased, as have searches on search engines.

“Semper Cream Filter” Patented – I didn’t know what this was when I was thinking about buying an espresso machine, so you probably don’t either. It is this new idea that DeLonghi came up with. It is a special filter that allows air to enter the brewing process of the ground espresso, which in turn gives you a thick and smooth crema. From there, the cream is mixed with steam and milk, which creates the foam. This special filter is unique to DeLonghi Espresso machines and really creates a rich creamy froth.

Long manufacturing warranty – One year standard manufacturer’s warranty. Alright, when I heard this I thought, so what 1 year is standard? No, it is not when it comes to espresso machines. Maybe when you buy a TV or a watch, but the standard warranty for Italian espresso machines is NOTHING, Zilch. I’ve read horror stories of people spending over $1,000 on a new espresso machine, only to have it break or make a terrible cappuccino. DeLonghi offers a standard 1-year manufacturer’s warranty. He can still get a warranty on other espresso machines, but you have to buy it separately.

Space saving design – The DeLonghi EC701 [http://delonghiespresso-review.com/delonghi-ec701-espresso-machine]measures about 1 square foot. 11x11x9. Pretty small, I keep mine right next to my toaster. I have a very small kitchen, so this was important to me, and most people aren’t millionaires, so obviously this is important to most people. But if you are a millionaire you will have more space available for other things.

Easy to use – Very good, I knew this one before I bought it from the photos. It has 3 buttons and a knob, as simple as possible. When I wake up in the morning, my eyes are glued shut and my brain is half asleep, so simplicity is very important. It’s fast too, you’ll be drinking a fresh cup of “your choice” in 4-5 minutes.
