We have Delonghi super-automatic (Costco version, from when they were selling it) - it makes incredible capuccinos. My wife maintains the machine because she'd probably die without it. :-)

It's very similar to this model and although it requires attentive maintenance, ours has lasted a few years already and is working perfectly still:
