Verdict
De'Longhi EN80.CW is a simple, compact capsule machine that is cheap and easy for everyday use, though its coffee is less elaborate than espresso.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about De'Longhi EN80.CW

  • The compact body takes little counter space.
  • It is ready in under 30 seconds in tests.
  • A hot water dispenser makes tea without a kettle.
  • A cleaning alert tells you when the machine needs care.
  • It switches off after nine minutes of inactivity.
  • It works with powdered coffee.

What customers don't like about De'Longhi EN80.CW

  • The 0.7 L water tank needs frequent refills.
  • The design is plain, with nothing to make it stand out.
  • No cappuccino or other drink options.
  • The coffee is less elaborate than from an espresso or automatic machine.
  • No adjustable coffee temperature.

Verdict

A small kitchen with little counter space is where the De'Longhi EN80.CW makes most sense. It works with powdered coffee, and in tests it was ready in under 30 seconds, so the wait is short. A hot water dispenser means it can also make tea without a kettle. A cleaning alert tells you when it needs attention, and descaling has its own program. It switches off after nine minutes of inactivity, which helps when you forget it. The trade-off is the water tank, which holds only 0.7 L, so you refill it often if you make several cups. The design is plain, and there is no cappuccino or other drink option. It suits someone who wants a quick, no-fuss coffee in a compact machine and does not need many drinks or a stylish look.
