De Longhi bean to cup coffee makers

[Spacecadet]

Anyone got one? How do they measure up? If I buy one is it going to last?

a previous client co had one of these in the kitchen. It was frequently used by about 20 staff and did't develop any faults in the 6 months I was there.

It made quite nice coffee too
What it also does nicely is that even when its full of beans, there is a secondary hopper if someone wants decaf.

Ive got one of these and I love it

Its expensive but it makes a really good brew and takes seconds. It gets through a lot of beans and the water tank is a little on the small side, other than that its great.

It doesn't need to be especially cheap, but I can't have one that needs it's own plumbing which most of the professional ones do. Could do with one that uses pods or a bean to cup one to keep the mess down as well.

alternatively buy a second hand professional one.
