Dualit coffee machines

British manufacturer Dualit claims its Espressivo coffee machine ‘combines professional quality with ease of use’ and says ‘every aspect of it is designed to create the perfect espresso, cappuccino or latte every time’.

We’ve put these claims on trial by running extensive tests on the Dualit Espressivo 84202 in our test lab. To find out exactly how it scored, visit the Which? coffee machine reviews.

The Espressivo typically costs around £150. If this doesn’t suit your budget, use our compare coffee machines tool to find one that does.

The Espressivo 84202 can be used with ground coffee or coffee pods and can make two espressos at once.

It comes with a removable water tank, cup warmer and a steam pipe for heating and frothing milk. If you want a machine that’ll let you prepare cappuccinos quickly, make sure you check out our coffee machine test results and choose a model that scores well for speed of steaming.

As part of our coffee machine tests, we ask Giles Hilton, head buyer for Whittards and a member of the Speciality Coffee Association, to act as our expert taster. Find out how he rated the coffee produced by the Dualit Espressivo by visiting our coffee machine reviews.

Giles has a palate that can discern the difference between espressos produced by different machines using the same ground coffee, and though taste is a big part of this test, appearance, texture and aroma are also judged.

The Dualit Espressivo weighs 6kg, which isn’t that heavy for a coffee machine, but there are lighter models available. If you're planning to stow your machine away when it’s not in use, you might want to check the specifications in our coffee machine reviews to find a lighter one that will be easier to lift.
