Hi Guys,

Deal as above, other machines available and other colors available on the site however prices may differ.

176 Euro with VAT removed plus around 27 euro shipping to Aus via DHL Standard Shipping.

About to press purchase on this myself.

Some other deals on this website with other goods, great time to buy given the strength of the dollar against the euro.

Edit: Went through all fine, payed through paypal.

Edit 2: Even the mighty Germans cant keep up with Ozbargain demand, Red colour on backorder

    My parents bought one of these and they can work it even though they are scared of anything that is electronic, has buttons and lights and makes whirring noises.

    It also makes suprisingly good coffee.

  • hellbound on 30/07/2012 - 15:14

    Any idea what the difference is between the 520R, 520S and 520W? I'm guessing this is the older model, but have there actually been any noticeable changes between versions?

        Oh lol, well that makes sense. Thanks!

  • DJ on 30/07/2012 - 15:30

    For those interested in a higher model, the EN720M is also a bargain. AU$387 shipped to Australia and that's including 8.18 euro's in Paypal fees. Credit card surchage is only 5.71 Euros so can save a few dollars there if you wish.

    Cheapest on Shopbot is $755 + $27.95 shipping to Perth. This makes it ~50% of the Australian cheapest price.

    Computer Universe's paypal charge is a bit of a PITA, ordering by Credit card imposes less of a surcharge.

    • Ahan on 30/07/2012 - 15:36

      I guess you are protected if using paypal?

      I saw people mentioning this.

        Not true. Paypal only protects you on eBay auctions

      • MementoMori on 30/07/2012 - 19:07

        Unsure.

        Has anyone actually tried to resolve anything via PayPal?

        I think I'm just as 'protected' using my credit card.

        • Repi on 01/08/2012 - 08:15

          Tried PayPal protection for undelivered goods a while ago. Absolutely no help, they twist and turn with excuses, refer you to fine print in their condition etc. Ended up using the Credit card protection offered by the Bank

    • flashback on 30/07/2012 - 15:39

      I think the issue with this model is the milk frother is not as hot as the L+ and results in a luke warm cup of coffee

      • unco on 30/07/2012 - 16:13
        +2

        Yep, the main reason why I didn't buy the Lattissima was the reviews saying the coffee wasn't hot enough.
        People had written to Nespresso about the temperature issue and they said the Lattissima was made with "European" coffee drinkers in mind because they like a warm cup that they can drink quickly.

        The Lattissima+ heats the water to 60 degrees though, nice and hot!

        • djz on 30/07/2012 - 19:37

          But isn't this the Lattisima PLUS? it says "Lattisima+" in the title…

          I'm about to pull the trigger on it and I was previously aware of the lack of heat in the older Lattisima but it seems this is the new model yeah?

        • unco on 30/07/2012 - 19:49

          Yes, sorry to cause confusion.
          Was just continuing on the discussion about the EN720M which isn't the plus.

          The one linked according to this bargain is the plus.

    • quangahh on 30/07/2012 - 16:14

      Where did you find the EN720M for AU$387?

      Dont understand. You can just buy other machine if you want any capsules other than Nespresso

      • Holysmoke on 31/07/2012 - 14:31

        theres better coffee than Nespresso out there and its good to have some variety at times.

    • unco on 30/07/2012 - 16:01

      http://www.espresso1882australia.com/

      These capsules can be used in Nespresso machines.
      Officeworks stocks them, I just got a few packs the other day to try.

      http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1922486&p…
      The feedback seems to be pretty good, my thoughts are that they're definitely on par with Nespresso, though I'm not a coffee expert.
      Some people are saying it's a better flavour than Nespresso.

      • Shin0bu on 31/07/2012 - 15:25

        If you want to buy compatible pods, you might as well buy a Nespresso pod compatible machine. It'll be cheaper and have local warranty. Then you can still use Nespresso and other compatible pods.

  • superforever on 30/07/2012 - 15:49

    wow $500 at Hardly Normal.

  • SteveAndBelle on 30/07/2012 - 15:54

    How difficult are these to keep clean? I own a couple of the 'Citiz & Milk' Combos posted here last Christmas and they're brilliant as they're so easy to clean. I assume these Latissima machines heat, froth & pump milk through pipes etc. so can anyone comment on how difficult/easy they are to cleanout each time?

    • unco on 30/07/2012 - 16:03
      +1

      There's a cleaning button which helps clean out the machine and sends some hot water through it.

      The milk container is simple to just pull out of the slot and dismantle (take the lid off, pull the straw thing out).

      Definitely not hard at all.

    Good deal, just a note, this isnt DHL express, but DHL standard. It basically standard German Post delivered via Australia Post in Australia and usually takes around 30 days to arrive!! I've experience it first hand. Also not really trackable.

    • flashback on 30/07/2012 - 16:35

      Thanks for this now I know how long I have to wait!!

  • jahnks on 30/07/2012 - 16:19

    Do you have to purchase an outlet adapter for this? I have never purchased electronics from Europe so I am not sure.

    • SteveAndBelle on 30/07/2012 - 16:36
      +1

      Yep but it shouldn't cost more than a few bucks form eBay or from the travel section of your local '$2 Shop'. Alternatively you could get a sparky to chop the plug off and thrown an Aussie one on as this will keep it neat & tidy.

  • bragains on 30/07/2012 - 16:39

    Never tried this "nespresso" thing, but how do the coffee compare to standard coffee?

    • SteveAndBelle on 30/07/2012 - 16:44
      +1

      Amazingly good and far more consistent than most local coffee shops I've found… but the secret is all in the milk you use so you do need to experiment with different types & especially quantities to find the exact taste you prefer.

      • unco on 30/07/2012 - 16:57

        Agreed, you can customise the amount of milk and water and save that as your presets. Took a few goes to get it to my liking but once that's done it's one touch from then on in!

      • superforever on 30/07/2012 - 19:45

        If you have Nespresso shop near you, you can try it for free. They are better than I expected.

    • cornbeef on 31/07/2012 - 16:25

      If you can manage to ignore your conscience in favour of self indulgence then buying coffee shots in small packages will (bizarre as it seems to others) make perfect sense to you. Plus you get to wank on like most folks seem to when it comes to coffee. Perhaps it really is Manna!

  • Trueno on 30/07/2012 - 17:05

  • MementoMori on 30/07/2012 - 19:10

    I've tried all the options for making coffee at home, and nothing beats my simple Bialetti stove top mocha paired with a mid range grinder.

    Cheap, simple to clean and doesn't create waste with all the pods.

    • StewBalls on 30/07/2012 - 20:12

      I agree, the two best tasting coffee makers are stove-top moka & the Arabic/Greek/Turkish brika…unfortunately, they are also the most time & labour intensive (particularly the latter).

      Espresso (in all its forms) was designed for a decent cuppa, real quick! ;)

      • Hahuh on 30/07/2012 - 21:34

        Ahaha. Takes 2 mins to make Turkish coffee. I also have an electric ibrik that takes a couple of seconds. You can buy them from various italian, arabic, turkish shops though they put a hefty markup opposed to importing it yourself.

        • StewBalls on 31/07/2012 - 11:29

          I wish! I can't even make it myself, I stuff it on the 2nd or 3rd bubble-up each time…I must be lacking patience. I saw one of those electric ones recently too, I was thinking of buying it but realised that I've got too many kitchen gadgets already!

          Also, my Saeco auto heats up from cold in ~20 sec, then 10 sec later I have a shot poured…vs 2mins = WIN! ;)

    • Choc0 on 30/07/2012 - 22:04

    I like to drink Long Macchiatos, but looking at the DeLonghi website, it doesn't make them specifically. How easy would it be to set the parameters to make one? Would it be a case of setting it at the espresso function, adding more hot water, and then setting it to stain 2 teaspoons of milk?

  • Shin0bu on 31/07/2012 - 10:30

    Just a tip for those buying. Delonghi Australia will NOT cover warranty for non-Australian machines. Therefore, if you are buying this from Europe, it will not be under warranty. No point going to Nespresso Australia or Delonghi Australia. It is not covered and will not be covered.

  • hewell on 31/07/2012 - 11:53

  • WV2 on 01/08/2012 - 21:02

    I've ordered with them on 30 July, they advise that it will take about 8 weeks after they dispatch from their warehouse, but could vary.
    I've received an email today, they cancel my transaction with AMEX, they advise me that they can't use credit card as I haven't purchased before.

    They asked me if I can repay with paypal or bank transfer,

    I told them I will pay with paypal, then they cancel my order.

    I need to order it again and still thinking whether this could be better as I probably better to buy in Christmas time with 2-30% discount price.

    The discount price would be still about 100 dollars more, but will have warranty and no need to wait for 4-8 weeks.

    What do you think?

  • WV2 on 01/08/2012 - 21:05

      Yeah I had the same thing
      Initially paid with AMEX and got the same email - did it through PayPal afterwards and they honoured the original price
      Got an email today and they are shipping it in 2-3 weeks when the new stock comes in
      I have researched them and they appear creditable. Communication has been very good so far with them.
      Hope this helps.

        Lucky you, I got an email confirming that I have to order fresh, and red one has unknown delivery time, suggest me order other product, which the product they suggest me purhase is far more expensive,

        I think it's rather better as I was unsure with no standard warranty and long waiting on delivery,

        I will wait for big discount in late this year mm

        • hungqd on 04/08/2012 - 14:32

          Got another update last night… it has been shipped
          It's obviously up to the individual buyer but I'm just never sure how much of a discount you'll get come Christmas
          Don't think I can get one from the store for $240… and the delivery only takes a few weeks, so in comparison to 4 months till Christmas the delivery wait time doesn't seem so bad after all

        • WV2 on 06/08/2012 - 21:45

          I heard that this machine EN520 is great, and I saw the ad. So I decided to buy it. But I really don't need that urgently as most of Ozbargainer does. I also thought that half price is really great.

          I don't expect to get it below $300 locally, but I do get somewhere near it will be great.

          I just don't feel right after communicating with this online business, but again they advise me it will be 8 weeks after shipping, so you will get sometime on October. hope you registered the insurance in case damaged item is received.

        • WV2 on 06/08/2012 - 21:47

          Tell me once you receive it as I might still consider to buy from them if price range is similar in 2 months time

    Has anyone received their machine yet? Is there anyway of tracking it once it gets to Australia?

        The DHL tracking for mine told me it arrived in Australia two days ago… not sure how to track it once it gets here though and I'd be interested to know if anyone has found a way to do so… I don't expect it'll be much longer before it arrives on our doorstep
        Admittedly, it has taken a long time to arrive but it seems that is DHL for you…

          I just talked to DHL and they confirmed that once it's in Aus and it's given to Aus Post there's no way to track it - but if it hasn't arrived in a few months (!) contact DHL Germany for follow up…
          Hope it arrives soon, mine shows as having arrived in Aus on Monday 20/8.
