My parents' DeLonghi Auto machine has finally packed it in after 10 years' of regular use. They are looking for a new replacement that takes whole beans (roasted for them freshly by myself), and froths milk. They don't have a demanding palate but I have a vested interest in a decent machine for when I visit. 
They make around 4 cups a day, more on weekends, mostly milk based. They don't need an auto frother, but would probably be happy to have one. I have only just started looking for them and have no idea what is available or in what price range.
Does anyone have suggestions?
