DeLonghi or Krups! HELP!
Parvini
12-12-2007
Hi,

I am looking to buy a coffee maker/ espresso maker or a combination of both as a Xmas gift...

I'm just wondering though, which is the better make! DeLonghi or Krups?

I've found quite a nice Krups one, it's the Krups Pump Espresso XT4020 and it makes cappucinos too. It works via filter, so I'm wondering whether it will be able to make normal filter coffee too?

Any useful advice much appreciated!

Thanks

We've got a Krups panini grill and it's ace. Mrs Scott has got a Krups waffle maker for Christmas. Shhhh.

Wikipedia sites them as being the world leader in coffee making machines....and they are German - which is always a good sign.

DeLonghi always strike me as looking a bit cheap / second rate. Whether they can do the job, I don't know.

I'd go with Krups every time though.

I've got a Krups one - the one that takes the little capsules.

Do you mean the XP4020? This is an Espresso/Cappuccino coffee machine only. You need a combination machine for filter coffee as well, like the XP2070 or XP2000. I'm looking for something simliar. Also, may be worth looking at Gaggia machines.
