I had an initial problem with my product when it arrived, but the guys at Caffe Italia were really helpful in helping me resolve the issue and as a coffee lover, spending a lot of money of a coffee machine and a grinder, I was really appreciative of their help. In the end they helped me resolve the problem, and I'm so happy with my machines and the service from the guys at Caffe Italia. I wouldn't hesitate to contact these guys in the future for my needs. Great guys.
Bought a Gaggia Classic Evo Pro 2023 a few months ago. Checked before buying and in the FAQ it clearly stated that they are "authorised dealers for all the products we sell". This is absolutely NOT the case for Gaggia. I have a warranty issue and have had to spend £30 on courier costs that I wouldn't have had to if I bought the machine from the only real reseller in the UK. Check the Gaggia website (image attached for the only UK authorised reseller). I was aware of Gaggia grey imports and thought I had checked first but this statement on their website is a lie and I have been duped, please don't be! Next stop - Trading Standards.

Rating from Taiwan, It is a good and cheap machine.Not only it can brew espresso well, but also its powerful steam can steam milk quickly.And It is made with high quality of stainless materials, fantastic and shiny like a mirror. Moreover, it is very convenient to use in the kitchen because of its small volume.
It is really a nice machine for coffee lover to treasure!
Great service, perfect products, decent prices. Outstanding service, very efficient. Fast and professional.
My experience started with a question around what coffee machine best suited my needs, I was able to speak to someone at your firm and they provided me with clear guidance on the type of machine, the recommended brand and a grinder that would also suit as part of an overall package.
A number of things blew me a way, the speed with which the machine was dispatched, the ongoing communication regarding its delivery and the quality of packaging to ensure the machine arrived safely at our home.
The fact that the machine makes better espressos than any coffee shop I have been to anywhere in the world, well that is a huge bonus. The machine demonstrates that Italians know how to make beautiful machines that function as designed.
I cannot recommend these guys strongly enough!

I bought a Simonilli Musica machine on Coffe Italia website. It took 2,5 month to receive my order. The company does not exist in UK, or other EU countries. Just in Italy. Within 6 month my Coffee machine is defect and they don't take any responsibility for repair. All phone lines are answering by an answering machine. Finally I found their real shop in Italy. They don't support anything and mostly even don't take the phone.

Customer Service from Coffee Italia is appalling. My machine was faulty on delivery and 5 weeks later I still dont have a replacement. They expected me to fix the problem, the Call Centre provide updates or information, the manager refuses to call, you only get occasional email updates. No apology or attention to the issue; its as if they dont care about me as the customer. We all expect very good customer experience these days but this just isnt good enough.
I want to give 5 stars, because I bought an excellent espresso machine for a very competitive price, directly sent from Italy, plus instant customer service when I needed a warranty exchange for the damaged water tank. I just needed to provide a few photos of the damage, and they instantly sent me a replacement tank. Now a short comment on the website: It is a great website with a huge variety, but I could not make my purchase while being logged into my account, it only worked while being logged out. That led to the purchase not showing up in my account, which worried me a bit. But in the end, everything was correct. It would be nice to fix this bug on the page, for the customer's peace of mind.

Had an awful experience with this company over the last month, would really recommend avoiding.
I tried to purchase a new lever espresso machine because their prices are slightly lower and didn't want to purchase through a big corporate giant. They say they sent it to me but it was incorrectly labelled and so got held up, first in Italy and then apparently in the UK. I'm now getting messages from the shipper that the package has been lost en route, but Caffe Italia are refusing to refund me - just responding with abusive emails, threats, and repeatedly hanging up on me saying they "dont' have time to help" when I check in once a week.
I understand that some aspects of shipping are beyond a company's control, but according to the shippers Caffe Italia made errors that caused the delays, and are now sitting on £500+ of my money and refusing a refund. Extremely distressing.
When things go wrong they do everything they can to avoid their responsibilities. They will not repay. Consequently they now have County Court Judgements (CCJs against them). Despite this, they are still trying to avoid repayment. On other review sites like Trustpilot they challenge every bad review (there are many of them) so that the bad reviews cannot be seen, this disguises how bad they are.
Thank you for the accommodating service, and the reasonable price in comparison to other online stores. Without Coffeeitalia I wouldn't own such a coffee grinder.

After checking out reviews we settled on the Rancilio Silvia V6. Received excellent service from the get-go with Mateo from New Caffe Italia keeping us informed every step of the way with trackable delivery from DHL. Since its arrival, we've been most impressed with our Rancilio and feel it lives up to its reputation. Love the quality of the coffee produced. Worth watching Youtube videos to familiarise and perfect the coffee making.
I had the V3 of the Silvia for many years and when it finally failed I had no hesitation in getting the latest model as a replacement.
The boiler on the new model seems a little more powerful, and the portafilter and tamper supplied are an improvement, but the basic functionality is as good as ever. I'm no barista but I love the coffee I can make with this machine, from espresso to flat whites. The automatic 'turn off after 30 mins" (of inactivity) is a plus for me as I did accidentally leave the old machine on all day on a couple of occasions.
As with the previous machine, I ordered from Caffe Italia, mainly because it worked before and was substantially cheaper than UK sources. It's a week for delivery and the packaging was fine - it actually arrived a day earlier than originally stated.
I bought from coffee italia a Quick Mill Monza Deluxe Mod. *******A EVO.
In my view QuickMill builds the best fully automatic coffee machine In the world, but the german manual is horror.
I had a problem programming the machine and it was solved via email and Cube transfer by MATTEO DE STEFANI.
Very great service, thanks a lot Matteo.
Highly recommended

I bought a portafilter after written confirmation that it was compatible with my machine. I received it and it was not compatible. I had to prove with photos and videos that it was not compatible indeed. They confirmed in writing from the UK that I would receive the compatible product at no extra cost to me, as the error was not mine. They passed the ball between the teams from UK and Spain and, in the end, from coffeeitalia.es they asked me to pay an extra cost of 35 euros if I wanted the compatible product (of course without justifying why such extra cost). In the end, their mistake had to be paid by me as a customer. I refused. After almost two months and about 20 emails, they finally made me a refund (what I paid for the non-compatible portafilter plus the shipping costs to Italy for its return) but not in its entirety, since 2.71 euros were missing. Very shabby. I asked for the reason why and never got a response. In short, the management of coffeeitalia.es (Caffè Italia) is terrible and really shabby due to its lack of transparency and ethics with the client. If you have a problem with your order, most likely you will also waste your time and money too.
I don't often leave reviews, but here I had a desire to share my opinion. At the time of registration of the application, namely the too low price for the product I selected, namely, personalized ground coffee from the Coffe Italia trademark, I was pleasantly surprised. The work of the manager is at a high level, they explained everything, agreed on the delivery time, offered rational payment terms for me as a buyer. And in the shortest days of transportation, the goods were received by me. Thank you for the pleasant moments.
Hi Marco,
Just like to say thank you.
My Bezzera duo and Mazza grinder arrived on Thursday a day earlier than expected.
I have set them up and both machines working perfectly serving up super Espresso and latte (Love them).
I hope to keep both machines for the next few years but when I am ready for an upgrade I will not hesitate to contact you again.
Great recommendation choices and a super fast delivery, along with a great shopping experience and the best prices on the net.
Many thanks,
Tony.
I have just received my Bezzera Unica PID espresso machine today- it is beautiful, I can't wait to start using it! Excellent service, fast delivery (within 3 business days) and answered all of my queries within a timely manner. Would definitely recommend!

Purchased a new Vibiemme Domobar digital ….an expensive machine.
Delivery was a little delayed but it eventually turned up only to find that the boiler would not heat. Within 2 hours I had made contact and received advice on what simple steps I could take to ensure it wasn't a straightforward issue.Tried those but no joy.
Then received advice about dismantling the base under the boiler ….really? ….on a brand new £1000 coffee machine, asking me to dismantle it?
Anyway I refused and rejected the machine forthwith and advised that unless I received confirmation of either a replacement or a refund by the end of that day I would contact credit card company which I subsequently then did. Not a peep since….a £1000 coffee machine that doesn't make coffee but no responsibility taken by this company.
I like drinking coffee and basically I cosnider this beverage is one of the best. I also like tea, but coffee is my passion anyway. I started to explore various websites and coffee shops online in order to understand which sorts of coffee I didn't drink mainly to acquire such coffee and drink couple of cups. I found i nthe internet this coffee shop, which claims that this coffee is from Italia. I contacted customer support and found our how much I would pay for the delivery of this coffee. It wasn't so much and ordered it. It was shipped pretty fast and I have already tasted some cups. Definitely recommend this place.
Processing payment took over a week no order updates parts missing on delivery and left to sort it out myself. 3 weeks after the delivery I still have no parts and I have asked to return the item and get a refund. Since then they have gone quiet and ignore my emails.
From time of purchase to delivery was 3 weeks. This time is insignificant when compared to how long I hope to have the machine! I also had some initial technical issues with an airlock (common in brand new machines) which I called Matteo and he sent me some simple instructions on youtube which helped.
I definitely recommend Caffe Italia to anyone looking for a legit quality Italian espresso machine.
I purchased a Gaggia Classic Pro with Caffe Italia in November 2020. I reported an issue with the portafilter within three days of receiving the product but was told that this would fix itself over time. Two months later the issue has worsened and I cannot use the machine at all. I have emailed and called Caffe Italia many many times since mid-December. Barbara from customer service keeps promising to get the technical team to call me but still no-one has bothered to contact me. I am appalled that my complaints continue to go unanswered and that the machine has not been fixed or replaced. Please avoid this company so you do not experience the same issues.
I have Ordered Espresso machines From Coffe Italia last week. The product is very good and deliver on time.
Will happily update this review depending on how the support process goes - but my first experience hasn't been ideal. It took a little longer for the tracking info to be sent onto me than I was expecting, assumed it would be an automatic process, but had to ask for details - not a massive issue, but I though this was coming from within the UK - not a deal breaker but just a little conflicting.
Finally arrived (ordered 9th Oct) on the 20th. Sadly the hopper is cracked quite severely and has an EU plug (not UK) - this is a £240 grinder so not really the welcome I was expecting! While I can arrange parts and fixes if required (awaiting what happens next) not the out of box I was experience and sadly means a quite a bit more waiting!
Hopefully the customer service can deal with this - and I will update this accordingly, but not overly happy to begin.

This customer was not able to froth the milk with his coffee machine, we nicely provides instruction to learn how to use the product and advising to which brand of milk to use.
Customer preferred to return the product because he did not like it we provided then the specific address to return the product.
So far product was not returned.
So this statement in the claim posted here is completely false.
For anybody interested we have full conversation with Mr Mavis Rockett which can confirm this response.
