Hi guys,
Since the solenoid valve of my coffee machine (BES820) has gone bonkers, and I don't think a solenoid replacement at $130 is a good deal (the machine is quite old and something else may fail). I have decided to look for a new machine.
There has been quite a long time since I looked at machines, and my budget is not great to be honest.
The options I found are:
1 - DE Longhi ECO310BK Icona Espresso Maker @ $159 (brand new). I know very little about De Longhi Machines, but st this price...
2 - De Longhi Dedica Pump Espresso Maker @ $299 (new)
3 - De Longhi EC860M Pump Espresso coffee machine @ $359 (new)
4 - BES840 (new) @ $399
5 - BES500BSS - Bambino (new) @ $499
6 - Gaggia Pure Espresso (used) @ $180 (without negotiating)
What do you guys think is the best option (bang for buck)?
Any comments on De Longhi Machines?
I have not seen many Gaggia Espresso Pure machines around.
Thanks for any help.
Cheers
