Review: DeLonghi Barista Coffee Machine, worth £24.99

Review by VIP Club Member Tayla Reynolds

We were very excited to be chosen to do a review for Toddle About.

All in all our daughter really enjoyed the Casdon Delonghi Coffee machine. Looks wise it is just like a grown up coffee machine and to have a well known brand is also nice and looks great in her play kitchen. Its great that it comes with a couple of coffee options to pretend with and the sound effects make playing with it a little more realistic.

To start with the attachments are a little tricky to get going with but with practice it becomes easier.

I think it would be nice if the other buttons on the front of the machine also made a realistic noise and maybe if the silver parts were also metallic in colour to make it look even more like a real life machine.

Our daughter really enjoyed the different types of coffee she could make and the milk separation makes it clever and realistic.

When packing away the machine it is nice that the attachments can be packed away into the back of the machine, this is good so they do not go missing but also so that it makes it easy to take the machine to her grandparents to play coffee shop with them also.

I would say that the toy is well priced and in keeping with other toys out on the market, this one offers slightly more and as mentioned to have a branded toy is also worth paying slightly more if you wanted to make a toy kitchen as realistic as possible. It is also available at various stores which is also good.

To conclude, we would highly recommend this product and would look to purchase it as a gift or for our own daughters use.

Available to buy from Smyths
