De’Longhi is known for making some of the best coffee makers with their line of automatic espresso machines, manual espresso machines, and collaboration with Nespresso machines. The De’Longhi La Specialista Maestro is the most expensive of the manual espresso machines, but it also has the most bells and whistles.
For starters, it really does look like the type of professional espresso machine that you’d see in a coffee house. Literally every component is made of stainless steel (aside from the black trim on the panel and bean hopper). The cup warmer on top, and the three gauges (technically, only one is a true gauge and the other two serve to display selections) add to the beautiful design.
