America Dinamica Fully Automatic Coffee and Espresso Machine with Premium Adjustable Frother, Stainless Steel, ECAM35025SB

I absolutely love our De'Longhi Dinamica TrueBrew machine! I've been eyeing this for more than a year and finally made the decision to purchase it. Knowing this is pricier than the average machine, I wanted to make sure this was the right one for us. The things that finally influenced my decision to purchase included: - Hearing about De'longhi's outstanding customer service. I did a ton of research and time and time again, I heard customers and friends share their positive experiences. This is always important to me, but especially when purchasing a more expensive item. - I liked the idea of being able to make a full range of different coffee drinks at home. With this machine, you can make single and double espressos; coffee, iced coffee, cappuccinos, americanos...the list goes on and on. - I read so many reviews of just how good the coffee is. I'll admit that I'm a bit of a coffee snob and there are very few things I look forward to more than my first sip of coffee each day. This machine doesn't disappoint! Now, I do need to say that there is a bit of a learning curve with this machine. It’s a bit of a process to get it setup and ready to use the first time around. There are instructions and as long as you follow the directions you should be fine. Beyond the setup, however, the instruction booklet isn’t very helpful. Your best bet is to google or search for videos on YouTube to learn how to program the coffee machine (if you want to tweak the pre-sets) and to learn how to properly clean the machine. Another tip would be to keep a glass under the spout when the machine is not in use as it goes through a self-cleaning process each time it turns on and shuts off (which is awesome!). While there is a drip tray to collect the water, the glass makes for easier clean up. Now that we’ve gotten our machine configured the way we want, it’s the easiest thing in the world to use and we LOVE it! My only regret is that I waited a year to purchase it!

I was lucky enough to have a very high end built in espresso machine at a place I once lived in. This machine was in the $5K range. Does this one measure up? Almost! Of course you need to keep the Dinamica in context. $5K espresso machines (at least good ones) are expensive for a reason. So if you are a real coffee connoisseur who can differentiate between bean types, want to tamp and fine tune and want a coffee shop level frother, the Dinamica may fall short. But if you appreciate a very good coffee drink and want to be able to have some control over your coffee, the Dinamica will be one of the best machines you can own. I did a great deal of research on the type of espresso machine I wanted to buy which was in the $1K range. Eventually, it came down to the Philips PicoBarista and the Dinamica. I opted for the De’Longhi because the Philips was almost too automated and I wanted the iced coffee function. Some reviews note the iced coffee does not produce legit cold brew. I don’t think the manufacturer was aiming for true cold brew but rather the ability to produce a better iced coffee drink. As noted, the espresso still waters down the ice so I actually put sweetener in the cup, brew it without ice, stir and then pour the espresso over a glass full of ice and milk for a yummy iced latte. You still get the benefits of this function without watering it down as much. Other reviewers were overwhelmed by the set up and figuring it out. Set up was simple. Compared to programming VCRs in the 80’s or putting IKEA furniture together, this was a breeze. Learning its ins and outs was also not too hard. While I did have some experience with the aforementioned expensive machine, I don’t think the Dinamica was complicated if you focus on learning one function at a time. So figure out how to make an espresso. And then the next day figure something else out. Frothing is lots of fun. The quality of the froth can carry the weight of caramel sauce on top so not bad for the little guy! Once you figure out the functions you will wonder why you thought you’d be overwhelmed. In short, this little machine punches way above its weight. Not only does the Dinamica make close to coffee house level drinks, it allows the creative inner barista to come out. Before you know it, you will be making all sorts of drinks and ordering a variety of syrups to spice things up. Thank goodness I leaned toward using this machine during the recent shelter in place drama instead of baking cookies — probably saved me a few pounds!

We've sampled several at home brands of Espresso machines and this one is the ultimate best. Plenty of choices to choose from when making your morning cup. Produces great flavour, love the design and brew speed is fast. Cleaning is easy and its holding up just great to our needs. You will not be disappointed.

We have had WONDERFUL customer service every time! We had to have a repaid in April 2021, 14 months after purchase. The machines was dumping to much water in the drip tray which made the grounds soggy and hard to get out. They sent a shipping label and we shipped it back for repair where they went over and above what was asked, even giving us a free part that we had scratched. That was not required under warranty. We received it back in perfect condition; better than new! All within one week! The report showed how many liters of water went through the machine, how many times it was descaled and how many cups of coffee were made and the coffee temperature, was was perfect. They also replaced a couple of other parts which we did not ask for. We just called again today and the service was exemplary again. We needed a new drip tray and they are sending one at no charge. They have a neat video system that the agent can view live while you are doing it which shows them the problem. Real Nice! The warranty is fabulous at 2 years but it had it extended to 3 years, by simply registering it. Sweet! This Expresso Machine is so much better than our previous Gaggnia Machine. There are a lot less problems. Warning lights would go on all the time with the Gaggnia. I finally sold it for parts on eBay.

This coffee machine looks nice. That is the only good thing I have to say about it. Having to empty the grounds and put water in constantly (after only 2-3 cups) the grounds tray needs to be emptied even when it already looks almost empty. None of these are why I hate this machine. The cleaning process is absolutely ridiculous! The whole process is nothing you can ever remember how to do. The manual has to be pulled out every time and the 100 step process works sometimes, sometimes that red light just keeps flashing. (which the manual says is because you did it incorrectly) After less than 6 months I have pulled it out, packed it up and will be donating to the next sucker. I already feel a weight lifted..... $800 huge mistake

I really liked the espresso this made, but the frother stopped working after less than 3 weeks. Cleaned it, followed all instructions, had descaled it a few days ago even though I use distilled water (descaling is a pain in the butt w this thing). Amazon doesn’t offer replacement parts so a return it is. This expensive of a product shouldn’t break so quickly when all instructions have been followed meticulously.

After our 3rd Jura automatic espresso machine broke in less than 10 years and the customer service was terrible, we decided to try De'Longhi. So far, we are really impressed with the ease of use, quality of espresso and the ability to clean/maintain it without "sending it back to the factory" like Jura. My wife always got iced lattes from Starbucks and the home espresso machines were intended to do the same thing at home. This machine works great and needs very little "fine tuning" to duplicate commercial quality espresso. I drink americano's and this machine has produced better drinks for the both of us compared to the more expensive Jura machines. I would recommend this to family and friends. Update: Over a year later, this machine still works amazing. Really happy with this purchase 👍

This coffee maker is fairly easy to use. Love the steamer and the default settings right out of the box are pretty good. We were able to unbox, and get it running for the first drink in almost no time. It has taken some time here and there reading to understand other features, how to use the milk steamer, how to maintain, and how to program some things. I find the program-ability a little limited. One minor problem is right out of the box the front of the coffee grinds holder was all scratched and nicked up. Box appeared unopened and everything else brand new - so this defect raised some concern that the manufacturing/packaging quality process missed this. Will email/call De'Longhi to see if it can be replaced - it is just aesthetic, but was disappointing to receive it this way. One other diappointment is that there is no frothing pitcher or espresso shot collectors with the unit. You will need to purchase separately. Reached out to De'Longhi via chat which was convenient. Unfortunately they cannot replace scratched part. My only option is return to Amazon for replacement, or open a warrantly claim and ship back to De'Longhi. What a pain. Note that if you do purchase one of these and receive a scratched part - I would pack it back up and ship back right then.

Il est très important de bien lire toutes instructions (pas juste le « Quick Start Guide » qui manque d’info) avant d’utiliser la machine. Mais dès que vous l’aurez utilisée quelques fois, elle devient facile à utiliser! La qualité de son café se compare très facilement au café des compagnies spécialisées en café. Le créma est belle, le lait moussé est parfait! Un peu cher à l’achat mais je ne regrette aucunement mon achat pour les jours où je n’ai pas envie de sortir aller chercher mon latté préféré! Dommage cependant qu’à ce prix, elle ne vienne pas avec le pichet pour le lait. J’ai acheté ici le Star Café de 600 ml qui convient parfaitement à la machine!

I wanted a coffee maker that could serve espresso, but also just a good cup of joe. I like my Nespresso machine for coffee but I don't like how it costs $1.35 minimum for each coffee. The coffee this machine brews is better than my Nespresso. I can actually differentiate the taste of one medium roast from another, which is something I haven't found too often from machines in the past. The only downside is that it serves about 1/2 mug. I believe that I can program it to serve more though so perhaps that's something I just have to read and understand from the manual. The espresso is as I thought it would be - top notch. Want to know what's even better? The iced coffee! Really, the iced coffee feature wasn't something I was too excited about - but its really what knocks this machine out of the park.... its amazing. Overall, I'll give the machine a 8/10. If I can solve the amount of joe per mug problem, then probably a 9/10. It would get a 10/10 if the grinder was a little quieter.

La De'Longhi Dinamica es como tener un Barista del Seattle's Best de planta. Estamos contentos de haber decidido en este modelo. Rogelio P. Ensenada BC

Comparativement à mon ancienne Saeco d'entré de gamme, elle fait du meilleur café mousseux avec le même café ordinaire que je ne paie chère. elle ne nécessite aucun entretien autre que de rincer le compresseur de temps en temps. Je l'utilise avec un filtre à eau pour diminuer la fréquence de détartrage. Ce qu'il me déplait dans cette machine, c'est le bouton grosse tasse qui nécessite 2 compressions successives pour préparer la dose programmé, donc 2 fois la dose de café et 2 fois le temps de préparation. Je n'ai pas encore testé la préparation du cappuccino, car je ne suis pas un vrai adapte. Je la recommande.
