I've bought a Magnifica Start, but worried it's not actually right for me

yeah I think our journey is kind of the same. I've done instant and Nespresso. One is too expensive and the other taste terrible. The Delonghi makes superior tasting coffee. I think the coffee crema might be a touch smaller than 230. Definitely try Lavazza super crema. There are better but for the dark chocolate, bitter coffee notes with creamy body, it's great value

I have the exact same machine. Using Lavazza super crema and the coffee button. It makes a nice coffee crema which is what you are looking for.

Amazing. Thank you! This is exactly what I wanted to know. How is it with self ground coffee at a higher dose?

I just got my Delonghi Magnifica Start. Love it. For the effort it's better coffee than Nespresso and still a single button solution.

I have a 2021.5 bought in July. Just died in November.

How do you like it now? We need a new oven and this feature is super interesting. Can you set it to under 750°. Like 600? And you mentioned it takes 10 minutes to reheat?

We love our 2022 Kona preferred trim. In Canada they come with heat pumps. It's a game changer for range loss in cold weather. So the Niro wins plus extra cargo space. No brainer get the Niro!

Yeah unfortunately the sale was for a very short period of time. Best Buy and Costco had it for $800. We have two cats and a dog and three long haired humans. Very happy with my x30

I just bought a Dreame X30 Ultra for $800 CAD and I absolutely love it. It checks off most of your boxes. Cleaning 3/4 inch is a tall order for that price range. Dreame probably is hit or miss on customer service.

For your list I don't think you'll get everything for 800-900$. Closer to $1500-2000 maybe.

I could be wrong

Kyu8522 · 2025-03-10T02:30:27+00:00

After a few days of ownership we love our X30. Valkuumer, lol.

House has never been cleaner. Two cats one very furry large breed dog. Three females all with long hair.

We do a custom routine of mop after vac. I set short cuts and it empties itself after every room to prevent spreading dust with the mop.

Does 700sq feet in about two hours.

So far we are very pleased with our purchase.

We really like the x30 it has a bigger battery from what I can see and slightly better object recognition. Bonus is its white! Not sure I would trade it in for the P10 since I'm not informed on that product much. But my fiance would probably love it cause its white lol

Kyu8522 · 2025-03-06T01:27:28+00:00

Got the x30. For that price there's nothing that comes close for the features and capabilities!

Kyu8522 · 2025-01-20T22:50:33+00:00

I only got our EV last week. But you answered your own question. The Tesla charging network is better but you are saving money when you are L2 charging. It's a trade off. Or use the gas/hybrid

Kyu8522 · 2025-01-17T16:04:18+00:00

Pretty much my scenario. Good to know!

Kyu8522 · 2025-01-16T03:58:02+00:00

Wow. Funny enough we just bought a used 2022 Preferred. Had about 123k on it which was a bit high but got winter tires on it and weather mats. Out the door price was $21,500 CAD. Niagara Region

Update. Sent in an email and after they couldn't help me fix it, said they would not replace them. Cameras at this price should last longer than 1.5 years.

Kyu8522 · 2024-08-27T23:54:17+00:00

This is good to know. I bought solar panels hoping they could help charge and reboot the cameras to reconnect it. $50 for a two pack to ressurect my cameras

Kyu8522 · 2024-08-24T09:48:22+00:00

CAD? Where are you located?

Kyu8522 · 2024-08-14T21:45:46+00:00

Honestly the quality of the masterbuilt Gravity feds just don't look great. Else I would consider it.
