Third-party reviews

What customers like about De'Longhi EN220.T

  • A 1 L water tank means fewer refills.
  • The removable tank is easy to fill.
  • It works with powdered coffee.
  • A hot water dispenser makes tea without a kettle.
  • The adjustable cup clearance fits cups of different heights.
  • It switches off on its own and has a sleep mode for idle time.

What customers don't like about De'Longhi EN220.T

  • No display to show what the machine is doing.
  • No drip tray full indicator, so you check the tray yourself.
  • No milk frother or cappuccino program.
  • No app control, so the machine cannot be run from a phone.
  • No iced coffee program, so cold coffee has to be made another way.

Verdict

A 1 L tank and a 19 bar pump make the De'Longhi EN220.T a sensible choice for someone who wants real coffee at home without much fuss. The removable tank is simple to fill. It works with powdered coffee, and a hot water dispenser means tea can be made without a kettle. A cleaning alert and a descaling program help keep it in shape. It switches off on its own, and sleep mode saves power. The trade-off is what it leaves out. There is no display, and no drip tray full indicator, so you check the tray yourself. There is also no milk frother or cappuccino program. It suits a buyer who wants a plain pump machine for everyday coffee and does not need milk drinks or a screen.
