Fantastic machine! Can’t recommend enough
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a huge step up from our stove top espresso maker, but we are so pleased to have made the switch! The Eletta Explore has many features, but among our favourites are…
- the ability to create different user profiles on the machine to store individual favourites
- the wide selection of different coffee styles
- the ability to make both hot and cold coffees automatically.
The machine is very easy to clean and maintain, it’s also stylish and quite compact!

Love this so much
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such an amazing machine, i love the fact you can have your drinks either hot or cold. You can choose from so many different verities of coffees and you can adjust how much coffee/milk you would like in your cup, I love the fact you can use this machine for coffees on the go no more wasting money on take away coffees. I would recommend this product to anyone who is coffee mad like me.

Huge range of great tasting coffee choices!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really happy with this coffee machine, it has a great range of options, which will take me a long time to get through! Hot or cold options, as well as customisable sizes, make it great for the a bigger household. You can also save a number of different peoples preferences for easy access to your favourites. The coffee tastes great and the milk frother ensures a cafe standard finish. The machine itself looks great and fits well in a smaller kitchen. It also has handy reminders for cleaning which make it really straight forward to use and maintain. I’m a big fan and would go as far to say it’s the best coffee machine I’ve used. Using the portable cup is also saving me from buying daily morning coffees on the way to work.

Incredible
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazing coffee machine that is well worth the money. It makes coffee shop quality coffee at home. Having some barista experience when using this machine was useful however it is very easy to use for anyone!

Game changer for cold brew fans
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The cold brew and cold foam features are definitely the standouts for me with this machine. I am very much an iced coffee man. Before this I was using an espresso machine, waiting for it to cool down over ice then trying to foam up some milk with a little electric whisk thing. Although it’s not truly ‘cold brew’ it drips out the coffee a bit at a time so it has that same smooth, less acidic taste which is fantastic. I’m used to just making a jug at a time in the fridge so having it on demand whenever I want it is great. And the cold foam is amazing! I’ll make a cold brew cappuccino for my walk to work and the foam is still sitting there 45 minutes later.
The saved drinks function is a nice idea but I think you need to be able to name the presets - for me it would be most useful for remembering which size is right for different sized cups and mugs. This isn’t an option so it was still a bit of a guessing game every time. Not the end of the world though, the cancel button is surprisingly efficient and pretty much instant if your cup is overflowing and if your cup isn’t full enough you can just add more coffee or milk or water on top no problem.
I do find the milk carafes more annoying to clean (and I wish there were only one for storage sake) than the little milk jug with my previous espresso machine but the foam you can achieve is honestly much better and more consistent so it’s worth it. One thing I did find a bit annoying - with a machine like this I would expect it to tell me the exact measurement of milk to put in the carafe to make my chosen size of drink - but it’ll tell you to fill to level 5 then only use up to level 3 or 4? So now I have this tiny bit of milk leftover. Eventually we started just remembering how much to use but for a machine with this many bells and whistles I would expect it to just tell me accurately.
The WiFi feature didn’t really work - it kept disconnecting and it would take a hundred tries to get it back on so I stopped bothering eventually. I’m not a big coffee connoisseur so I didn’t really mind about the smart bean thing but if you’re really into coffee you might like it.
The enormous menu of drinks was perhaps unnecessary but still fun to scroll through and try something different occasionally.
Appearance wise I don’t think it’s as attractive as a traditional espresso machine, but it’s actually pretty compact for all that it does. It is INSANELY heavy though so watch your back lifting it out of the box!
One other (very minor) thing I would love which is a bit of a shame isn’t a feature considering it does so much else is just a timer function. I quite like coming downstairs in the morning to a pot of fresh coffee waiting for me (and it does have a pot function) so it’s a shame this isn’t an option. Also be aware this model doesn’t come with the pot but it does come with the travel cup.
In a nutshell, the machine has a lot of bells and whistles which might be appealing to someone who is super into coffee. But for your average every day cold brew/iced coffee lover, this machine is worth it just for how well it performs those functions. Love this machine and would recommend!

Amazing coffee machine
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazing coffee machine. It makes fantastic coffees better than the coffee shops and cheaper too. So easy to use. Gives you reminders for cleaning and emptying. Touch screen is easy to navigate. Walks you through set up. And you can save your favourite coffee to the perfect size and strength so it is one touch and go. Even has the setting for your to go cup

The best coffee machine!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow what a machine. This is definitely a must have and has changed how we drink coffee. The machine is really easy to use, comes with the tools to help clean and makes it a joy to make your own coffee.
Love the fact you can personalize the machine with each user. So you can add your own favourite coffees to it.
Also really easy to make iced coffees too.
We have found this a joy to use with wanting to socialise and show our friends! It's most definitely a smart coffee machine and tastes exactly as it's brewed from the coffee shops.
The milk frother lets you dictate how frothy you'd like the milk. Easy to change for each person.
The touch screen is really user friendly and has lots of options to choose from. You can change the temperature, strength, size and even has an option for extra coffee or milk too.
Cleaning wise this is really easy to do too. Once the beans are ground, we recycle our coffee in the garden, the machine lets you know when this needs doing.
Also a cleaning function after each coffee to ensure it tastes the best too.
The machine itself is heavy and a little big. Expected as it's an amazing coffee machine.
Ours came with the travel mug too. There's a function so you can change the size of your coffee to fit your mug, size up to a grande for on the go in the travel mug.
Absolutely this is the best coffee I've ever had! 10/10 and friends and family love it too. Outstanding quality.

An incredible and easy to use everyday necessity!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Delonghi Eletta Explore!!!
It has become an everyday staple in my life due to the ease of use and quality of the product.
Design: the machine looks gorgeous! So sleek and timeless. It is compact and has great functionality to allow for various sized cups, hot or cold, different grinds/coffee beans. It has a clear and vivid digital display which is easy to use and very helpful.
Functionality: what doesn't the machine do!! A wide variety of hot drinks, cold drinks and even my favourite cold brew. There is a function of to go coffee and also comes with the special Delonghi mug for this too. You can link up the machine with an app and also are able to have 4 different profiles within the machine to remember favourites and specifications. All coffee types are dispensed quickly and mess free. The machine also self cleans after each use which allows for stressfree and clean parts.
Taste: wow! Coffee tastes rich and fresh. The machine adjusts to each type of bean to ensure you get maximum and optimal flavour. It really is so clever! The milk to frothed within the machine and is the machines best function. Milk is smooth, frothy and complements each sip very well. The cold brew function is amazing and allows for quick coffee which would normally take hours!
The box comes with everything you would need; ice tray, hot carafe, cold carafe, to go mug, descaler, cleaner etc.
I highly recommend this product and is perfect for any home, office or restaurant. Thank you Delonghi for allowing my busy mornings to be stress free and easy!

Brilliant
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this coffee machine, it is so easy to use and makes a range of fantastic tasting coffee's. On screen instructions help me through the process of making each drink and it also reminds me to empty out the drip tray and the coffee grounds. I love that it has an app so I can programme the machine to make my coffee so it is ready and waiting for me as I walk through the door at the end of the day. It is also really easy to clean

Amazing coffee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best coffee machine I have ever had makes a coffee hot or cold just as good and even better than a coffee shop. Simple ro use and so many options. Tastes great and with the froffer option you can even choose how much foam goes on top. Cleansed itself when turning off and has saved my favourite drink for a quick to go option in the morning. So highly recommend

A great machine that has thought of everything
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love that this machine has been designed to make everything as straightforward and easy to use as possible. The on-screen instructions guide you through the process and remind you to empty the grounds container and drip tray, fill the water and bean hopper and to descale the machine. Even having a little red indicator showing when the drip tray is full is a nice touch. The range of drinks is great and I like that you can save your preferences to save time when you come to make a new drink. Having two carafes is a bit inconvenient because it feels like you have to wash them so frequently (though they're easy to dismantle and wash). However, the frothy milk it produces is great, for both hot and cold. And, whilst it's expensive and inconvenient to buy skimmed milk especially for the cold foam, I found the foam produced was almost as good when using semi-skimmed so I'd just stick to that. Overall, a great machine that makes great tasting coffee, and doesn't make you figure everything out yourself.

Wow! Best coffee machine yet
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sleek, stylish, compact, convenient and really easy to use, maintain and clean. I really couldn’t reccomend the Eletta Explore coffee machine enough. The machine has an easy to use touchscreen display allowing you to select and customise your coffee. To make grabbing a coffee even more convenient, the machine comes with an app, so you can make a coffee even when you're not near the machine which is great in the morning! The built in milk carafe can be used to froth hot or cold milk for your coffees. The Eletta Explore also features customisable profiles which is excellent in a household of people who all enjoy our coffees slightly different. Really couldn’t live without this now! Love the fact you can make amazing cold coffees too.

100% worth
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Delonghi has made a great decision to bring this machine, the coffee options are essential sorted in to 3 buckets: hot, cold and to go. This really helps to cut down on the choices from the menu. All the options produce great coffee.
The machine is very easy to use as this "talks" to you, the machine explains everything as it's doing it .
The pros of this machine are:
1. hot and cold milk options with 2 diferente carafes for hot and cold foamed milk.
2. Over ice coffee function
3. Touscreen display
4. Very easy to use
5. Travel mug can fit under coffee spout.
Finally and very important this machine is very easy to clean, carafes and drip tray they are easy to take apart and thoroughly clean. As easy as desmantling the grinder too for a deep clean.

Wow, what a machine
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first I was dubious as it was very expensive and the instructions were quite thorough and daunting. It was well worth reading through the instructions as it made things easier. The on screen instructions were simple to follow and made the processes easy.
The Eletta Explore makes a great coffee, both hot and cold brew. It also does hot water and tea too!
It is bigger than the other coffee makers we've had before, but it fits nicely on our kitchen worktop.
Looking forward to many years of great tasting coffee...

Genuinely, my favourite household machine
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sleek, stylish, compact, convenient, easy to use, maintain and clean. Just a couple of the main features of the Eletta Explore coffee machine and I really couldn't rate it highly enough!
The machine has an easy to use touchscreen display allowing you to select and customise your coffee. To make grabbing a coffee even more convenient, the machine comes with an app, so you can make a coffee even when you're not near the machine!
The built in milk carafe can be used to froth milk quickly and easily. You'd be surprised at how different your coffee can taste just by frothing the milk! The only negative here is that the tops to the carafe just sit in place, they're not secured in any way. Which has led to more than one incident of me grabbing the carafe from the fridge by the lid and dropping milk everywhere.
The Eletta Explore also features customisable profiles which is excellent in a household of people who all enjoy their coffees differently and in different sized cups/mugs.
Genuinely the most loved machine by everyone in my house. Probably the most used too! I couldn't do without it now, though I probably consume way to much coffee now as its so easy to make and tastes incredible.

Outstanding barista coffee machine!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly the Eletta Explore coffee machine is best the on the market, it's amazing. We are big coffee drinkers and this machine make the most outstanding tasting barista hot and cold coffees.
Every detail is made and thought out to perfection all the parts are very highly quality and everything fits into place with ease. The touch screen gives endless coffee choices that then can be adjusted to your preference and stored in your favourites for next time. I have had so much fun trying out all the different types of coffees I didnt know existed.
It gives you step my step instructions on how to clean and maintain the machine and the parts are really easy to clean.
The bean adapt technology is great and makes the perfect frothy coffee everytime. The coffee to go us pure genius and has saved me so much time and mone and my coffee stays hot for hours.
It's the best investment and we are blown away with it. Also delongi sent a coffee bean welcome pack out which was a lovely touch.
Top tip.. always have a cup underneath because it cleans the machine everything you turn it off and on, same for milk jugs.

Endless coffee choices
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely fantastic product. You can make endless drinks, be it hot or cold, with this coffee machine. It looks stunning in my kitchen and it's like having a a coffee shop open 24/7 in the house with this product as it makes almost anything. It's stylish, sturdy and works effortlessly. It's so easy to set up and start using.
Certain parts can be removed and easily washed so that's a bonus.

So how good can a bean to cup machine be?
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] And the answer is exceptional
This is my first expensive bean to cup machine so I wasn't sure what to expect or whether this would be worth the high price tag.
First off this is a substantial machine, it wouldn't look out of place in a business. I was quite intimidated when I unpacked everything and that it would be complex to operate. In reality the on-screen guide literally talks you through every step in the set up and coffee making process. It really is idiot proof
The drink choices are perfect and can be fast tracked between hot and cold to save time scrolling the menu. You can set up your own profile and the customisation options seem endless, such as size of your own travel cup, grind off the coffee, level of milk froth. I've been using is it for a month now and still finding new features.
Operation is as easy as pour beans in, plug in the milk carafe and pick your coffee! It also allows you to add pre-ground coffee too. It's really that effortless
Everything is well made and sturdy. The coffee grounds get whisked away to a storage tank behind the drip tray and the water tank holds a substantial amount of fluid. Nothing feels flimsy, cheap and it dismantles easy for cleaning.
My only criticism is when the machine first turns on and off it purges water to clean itself. This deposits in the drip tray (a fairly large amount) I prefer this in a container instead as it's cleaner. For the money I'd have liked to have seen a tub provided for this reason. It's the same for the milk carafe cleaning cycle which fires out hot milky water.
However, I would not hesitate to recommend this machine. Quite frankly it's an amazing piece of kit and the drinks it makes rival anything you get in a shop, minus a fancy milk pattern. However even this you can steam the milk and pour yourself, if you wished.
Worth every penny and looks like it will last for years!

De'Longhi Eletta Explore
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is amazing with how much it can do! From the different types of hot coffees (latte, cappuccino, expresso, white coffee etc) to cold coffee or cold brew. The machine has automatic steam clean cycles to keep each cup of coffee full of flavour. Touch screen to scroll through and choose the coffee style you prefer, for example; bean strength, milk froth etc. Cold milk or cold coffee drinks are perfect for on the go or to enjoy during the summer! Bean adapt technology means the machine can change it's settings if needed for that great coffee taste. The machine can also connect to app on your phone to create your drink remotely without having to touch the machine. So easy to set up, use and clean! Also doesn't take up much room on the kitchen side. Great for guests coming round and feel like treating them with a gorgeous coffee of their choice and flavour.

Wow, wow and wow
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the delonghi eletta explore coffee machine, I love the fact it has hot and cold drink options, because my go too drink is a cold coffee. The machine is so easy to use, this is the first bean to cup machine I have ever used or owned and I do not regret having it. The machine blends the coffee beans perfectly, froths the milk beautifully and the coffee you get from this is just like a barrista coffee. If you love coffee this is the machine for you. Well done delonghi

Outstanding features and incredible coffee
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this Delonghi bean to cup coffee machine. It is a compact machine considering the amazing amount of features it offers. Fits easily in my smallish kitchen and looks really good with the glossy black and silver design and an easy to read screen. Quick to assemble and comes with a video link as well as a booklet so it was ready for use 10 minutes after opening the box. It offers hot and cold drinks and you can personalise all your favourites and the screen keeps you informed while the coffee is being made and reminds you to clean, put the milk in the fridge and to fill the water container. I am amazed at how quick and easy it is to make the best coffee I have ever tasted. From a frothy cappuccino to a milky latte this Eletta Explorer just makes incredibly good coffee. There is an option for cold drinks and hot drinks and you can pick a size option from an espresso to a large to go latte. You can choose the strength of the coffee and you can save your favourite combinations. The box contains a travel mug and I no longer buy a coffee every morning because I can make my own. It’s very easy to keep clean on the outside and everything is easy to clean on the inside - from the coffee ground tray to the milk jug; all can be pulled apart and washed. I am still working my way through all the drink options but I am so happy with the quantity of incredible machine and the coffee it makes. The difference between this machine and my previous pod coffee machine is that I now know what a really good cup of coffee tastes like! I really can’t recommend this DeLonghi coffee machine enough.

Amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a brilliant machine for my coffee addiction.
I love how I can programme each person profile to have their coffee how they like it. I like how I can make hot and cold coffee drinks.
It's bit of a bulky machine so not good if you have limited counter space.
Travel mug fits in to make coffee for morning runs

Wow!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love fresh coffee and wanted to try one of these machines that grinds the beans. While I expected a semi decent coffee what I got was so good literally, I was amazed. Better than a major brand coffee shop ! My cafetiere is now retired and this is my machine for every single cup! I love it! Its brilliant! Once you've set it up all you need is to press the buttons, it's easier than the instructions make it out to be. Whole heartedly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was an upgrade from a Delonghi Authentica and it’s honestly made such a difference being able to touch a button and have my coffee pour itself while I get ready for work. I like that it also has hot and cold options which is great for summer approaching. I use the take away flask everyday as it keeps hot drinks lovely and hot. Totally in love!

Premium barista-grade coffee, at home
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is high quality, professional and worth the money. The options and customisation of coffee products is endless, we are especially pleased with the profiles option, allowing all family members to have their own preferences. I would say the app could be easier to use, we had a lot of connection issues early on but once we were set up it's been pretty straight forward. Having an at-home coffee system with fresh ground beans is a game changer for us all, we will likely save money by the end of the year by not drinking out as much! The fresh milk option is elite in comparison to other at home machines, and the choice of 2 easy to change units is great to alternate between cows milk and oat milk depending on who's using the machine. 9.9/10, love it.

Fabulous machine!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is simply the best coffee machine I have ever had. I have had pod machines but hands down this bean to cup machine wins!
So simple to set up and it looks the part too. Makes an amazing cup of coffee however you like it. I have always wanted a machine that has a milk frother and you can control how frothy you want it and now I do- makes great hot chocolate for the kids if you just use the frothy milk.
My coffee is made really quick and easy I love a nice milky latte and this delivers with the press of the touchscreen, great features and the display gives guidance and tells you when to clean. Amazing.

The best coffee machine I've ever used!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an excellent coffee machine that I didn't know I needed in my life. I've been using this machine to make a bunch of different coffee types, the lattes in particular are fantastic.
The machine is so simple to use, just use the touch screen to swipe along, find the coffee you fancy, hot or cold, select it, dial in whether how intense you want it and what cup size and hit brew and then just watch and wait it prepares the perfect coffee.
I love the fact you can use the coffee link app to help dial in the flavours of the coffee using the bean adapt feature, it's really helpful for maximising the taste.
It's not too loud while pouring but can get a little loud when grinding the beans, but that's to be expected. The machine is really good at letting you know if there's an issue, whether the water tank needs filling, the coffee beans are low or if it's having trouble extracting the coffee due to the grind size. It's never been so simple to get delicious tasting coffee.
