From across the kitchen, you can usually spot a DeLonghi appliance because it has that something extra in its presentation and design. This attention to style and line permeates their entire collection, from DeLonghi espresso makers to DeLonghi toaster ovens. But performance is their invisible ace-in-the hole, ensuring their place as one of the top brands in the country for small kitchen appliances.

All this design know-how is spread across a broad range of prices to fit any budget. Take their espresso machines, for example. On the lower end of pricing is the their Espresso and Cappuccino Maker. They've streamlined the process in this Italian-designed machine without sacrificing the ability to achieve a luxuriously frothy caffeine kick in the morning. A swivel jet frother delivers the hot air needed for your milk, there's a patented safety cap for the steam-driven 4-pounds of power, and the durable glass carafe is heat resistant. It's easy to use and even easier to clean. On the other end of the scale is the super luxe Digital Super Automatic Espresso Center. With a patented "Single Touch" hot milk system, it makes lattes, cappuccinos and macchiatos. There are settings for coffee strength, start times, reheating and bean grinding—even a Clean Button. And it might just walk the dog for you, too, if you ask it nicely.

Other popular appliances include the Perfecto Electric Grill, for healthy indoor grilling, the DeLonghi Deep Fryer that's extra large for family meals, and a Nonstick Toaster Oven with Integrated Panini Press.
