Not as bad as the rest of the reviews say...
Have purchased two. Received one as a gift, and given as a gift. Had the former for almost a year now. No issues. Espresso is always hot, and no leaks. The coffee pot dribbles a bit if you pour too fast, and once in awhile the frother will drip condensation. Well folks, the moisture has to go SOMEWHERE. Overall, seems like a good product. Would buy another in a heart beat. Like the option to set the "strength" of the coffee brew, in addition to the timer option.

Ditto to profuse leaking
As others have said, the coffee side leaks a lot. The espresso side is sub-par. If this combo product looks to good to be true, that's because it is.

Leaks all the time!
The coffee maker side started leaking after 2 years of occasional use. First it was leaking by the filter basket. That stopped but now it is leaking under the water compartment onto my counter. I called the company and they told me it was not a known issue, my unit is out of warrenty and I would have to pay to have it serviced. I told them there are 3 pages of people complaining about this same problem on Amazon and why haven't they fixed it. They had no answer. I will not be buying any more DeLonghi products.

Worst purchase ever made
I've had this machine for about 18 months. After about 6 months of use, the coffee side started leaking until now it does not work any more. I contacted DeLonghi and all they had to say was to take it to a service center, which by the way are few and far apart. My previous coffee/espresso machine was a Krups and it lasted for 10 years. I will never buy DeLonghi products again and certainly do not recommend this product. Mine will go into the trash and we'll replace it with another brand.

buttons get Steamed
Over time steam will ruin this machine.. As above reviews wrote, my machine stopped working after about 8 months.
This is a terrible engineering design. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
