Dedica Arte EC885.​BG, Traditional Barista Pump Espresso Machine, Manual Coffee Machine, My LatteArt Steam Wand, Compact Design 15cm Wide, Fit Mug Up to 13cm, Beige

Pretty much the perfect beginner-intermediate machine for the budding coffee aficionado. Gives you all the tools you need to make great coffee, in a sleek and slimline model that fits perfectly on your copy tattoo. Coffee temperature is ideal for good tasting coffee, noise level is akin to an average espresso machine (no issues!) and the price is incredible for the package you get! It has 3 functions - single espresso, double espresso and the steam function, which you have to let it “load” to the correct heat for the steam and then if you want to revert back to espresso you have to open the steam valve and wait for the steam to leave (the lights tell you what to do!” An all round incredible machine!

It’s taken a bit of time to establish the function of this lovely machine. Have to allow it to heat up at least 10 minutes before use. When using the steam use an empty cup to allow the excess water to drain out or you’ll get a cup of watery milk! Otherwise all good ChatGPT was very helpful!

Love this little espresso machine! I’ve had the De’Longhi Dedica Arte EC885.BG for a few weeks now and love it. It looks great on the counter and doesn’t take up much space at all, which was a big plus for my kitchen. Using it is really easy, even if you’re not a barista. I was pulling good tasting espresso right away, and the coffee comes out rich and smooth with a nice crema every time. The steam wand is better than I expected too. it froths milk really well for lattes and cappuccinos once you get the hang of it. Overall, this machine feels high quality for the price, super easy to use and not too noisy. Highly recommended

Coffee machine is great but the plastic lip of the water tank lid had broken off making it necessary to replace the whole water tank. Disappointing! Cost me £15 to replace it from E spares (Screwfix)

De’Longhi have clearly sent me a retuned coffee machine. The box has clearly been previously opened and the coffee machine has a large scratch on it. This was a Christmas present so very disappointing.

Makes a great coffee.. easy to use with consistent results.

The espresso machine was promptly delivered and well packed. It is my second espresso machine of this specification. I have been using it for a few weeks now and has met expectation. Good value.

Very good machine

Funktioniert super!

FAVOLOSA!!! Cercavo una macchina per il caffè in POLVERE perché mi ero stancato di usare quelle a capsule che ti obbligano a prendere caffè loro! Io che uso solo cose BIOLOGICHE non avevo e non ho mai avuto (e ancora non esiste) questa possibilità con le capsule! Oltre alla rottura di doverle aprire per togliere la polvere e separarla dalla plastica! Ma con quello che costano, mi tocca anche fare lo scassinatore di capsule! Anche NO! In più cercavo una macchinetta compatta che si potesse inserire in piccoli spazi, che magari avesse un design elegante e che avesse la possibilità anche di usare CIALDE (BIO!) e ho trovato questa meraviglia! Oltre a fare il cappuccino con la lancia vapore, Sono rimasto anche meravigliato oltre che per i dettagli, anche dei “gadget” compresi nella scatola! Ovvero: Bricco in metallo per il latte! Tampone per schiacciare la polvere di caffè (molto professionale e tosto!) Misurini per il caffè! Filtro per cialde Filtro per 1 tazza Filtro per 2 tazze Arnese di pulizia per la lancia vapore E DECALCIFICANTE DeLonghi! La macchina si presenta molto stabile e ben costruita, con una linea sofisticata ed è elegante e stretta per essere posizionata in spazi piccoli! Devo dire molto bella e ottimo il caffè che esce! Io ho aggiunto un piccolo cassetto raccogli polvere usate (dove si sbatte il porta filtro) e l’angolo caffè é davvero completo e bello da vedere! Consiglio vivamente! Anche per evitare il consumo di capsule che la maggior parte della gente (se non tutti) butta nel pattume indifferenziato senza remore e non dividendo la plastica dalle polveri, ma che comprendo vista l’enorme difficoltà nel farlo! Bello anche il portatazze nella parte superiore ma scordatevi che possa scaldarle! Anche perché dopo poco tempo di inutilizzo la macchina si spegne da sola.

I couldn’t be more delighted with this Dedica Arte machine — it’s an absolute game-changer for my home coffee setup. From the moment I unboxed it, the elegant, compact design grabbed my attention: brushed stainless steel finish, slim 15 cm profile that fits perfectly in my kitchen, and intuitive controls that feel premium. The espresso quality has exceeded all expectations. With the 19 bar thermoblock pump and precise temperature control, I’m pulling rich, aromatic shots effortlessly. The milk frother is just as impressive — creating silky micro-foam with ease for creamy lattes and cappuccinos. Whether I use the portafilter or the convenient ESE pod adapter, each cup feels like it came from a high-end café. User-experience is outstanding too. The single-button operation makes switching between espresso, lungo, and manual modes straightforward. The removable water tank is easy to refill and clean, the drip tray slides out neatly, and the machine warms up rapidly. I also appreciate the quiet pump compared with other machines I’ve tried. Maintenance is simple and efficient. Descaling alerts help me stay on top of upkeep, and the machine’s components are all accessible for a quick clean. The foot-print and wattage make it ideal for daily use without dominating the countertop or the power bill. In summary: if you’re serious about great coffee but value style and convenience in your home setup, the Dedica Arte is an outstanding choice. I’m giving it five stars without hesitation!

J'ai acheté cette machine en occasion, et elle est presque comme neuve, à part une petite égratignure. Côté performance, rien à dire : elle est super efficace et fonctionne parfaitement depuis des mois. Le design est compact et pratique, et la buse MyLatterArt fait des mousses de lait vraiment top pour les lattes. Je l'utilise presque tous les jours et elle est toujours aussi performante. Très content de cet achat !

Makes a great coffee, all from espresso to other types and a great machine! Easy to use and good looking. A do recommend it!
