Thanks. Will update the post. Couldn't find the model number.
Yep, unfortunately ALDI just has very basic information on their product page.
Apart from some expresso machines offering/doing the addtional "cold brews" these days,
somehow the machine does look the very real mc-coy of the coloured different (as noted), version of the "DeLonghi LaSpecialista Arte manual Coffee Machine" sold elsewhere.
For information to ponder:

De'Longhi La Specialista Arte EC9155.MB
There is a newer model out now, 9255, so perhaps clearance?
$530 at Amazon et al.
Does this look like a knock-off of a Breville, or just a generic coffee machine?
De'Longhi La Specialista Arte EC9155.MB
Looks similar to the DeLonghi LaSpecialista Arte EC9155MB, but with some difference as mentioned above.
I suspect it a variant of the same model just for ALDI.
A badge-variant. They just don't want people price-matching, probably. Or it showing up in searches.
The model will be on the box once you see it on sale, then we can find out for certain. But I'm pretty sure that grinder is going to be very hard to dial.
@ATangk: 8 grind settings would drive me nuts, even with 25 on my machine I wish I sometimes had some extras.
Refurb Breville Express is around this price through their ebay store when a coupon pops up (probably will again with the next ebay sale), I'd go with that as a minimum. This looks to be a budget version of that machine anyway.
Reminiscent of a BES870 but with distinct differences.
BUT WHAT BEANS 😭😭
After many bags of trying different beans the only logical option was vittoria, half price often at coles/woolies, always available and taste was pretty decent if you get the grind right.
The luxe ones are quite enjoyable
I purchased De'Longhi La Specialista Arte EC9255 from David Jones at $575 last months, I paid with discounted DJ gift card. At TGG commercial, it listed below $600 depends on your employee. ALDI one is full of plastic and De'Longhi 's build quality is much better than Aldi one. for EC9155, the price is $465 at TGG commercial, just without cool brew function.
hey mate - your comment seems to suggest that the aldi one is not a delonghi branded product? But on the link for this deal it is in fact delonghi…
Kind of looks exactly the same build quality wise (when comparing to the jbhifi link) ..
I wouldn't be surprised if this was a slightly different model number to the one being sold by TGG/JB.
The ALDI one doesn't have 'La Specialista' printed on the machine (and looks like a different colour coffee grinder top).
