Buying the Gran Lattissima in Canada
- Canadian machines run on 120 V like US models, but warranty support is normally handled in the country of purchase, so a Canadian listing is the safer buy.
- Our link opens Amazon.ca with pricing in Canadian dollars. The same machine may be sold under the De'Longhi or Breville name; the coffee system is identical, so compare colour, bundle and price.
- Manuals and packaging sold in Canada are bilingual, English and French. Original capsules are available from Nespresso, Amazon.ca and many grocery chains.
