From the country that invented and perfected espresso comes a machine of unrivalled versatility. The De'Longhi Prima Donna embodies everything truly Italian about coffee--style, quality and the perfect intensity of flavour. PrimaDonna is simply the best domestic bean-to-cup espresso, lungo, latte and cappuccino machine on the market, with ingenious design and patented innovation. It allows consumers to make 15 bar restaurant and coffee bar standard coffee in the comfort of their own homes, and in the simplest way. All aspects of a typical professional pump espresso machine (like the ones you see in your highstreet coffee bar), such as grinders, filter holders and steam pipes, are found working inside PrimaDonna, De’Longhi has simply redesigned, compacted and hidden them inside the machine. Instead of grappling with filter holders and fiddly cappuccino steam pipes, PrimaDonna expertly performs all of these functions at the touch of one button. It's not cheap but it's guaranteed to make 30,000 coffees in its lifetime, certainly a quality investment.
