The media could not be loaded.
I am thrilled to finally have this machine. It makes delicious fresh coffee and milk based drinks. You will see in my video that I add my favorite creamer before my latte brews. I like mine a little sweet, and that’s what works for me. I have bought some organic syrups and can’t wait to try those, too. It has been so much fun and a delicious experience getting to know my machine.

I will try to keep my review list short and simple:

Pros:

*Makes a delicious coffee beverage (haven’t tried iced coffee yet, but I’m certain it won’t disappoint
*Reminds you to clean the milk spout with a touch of a button when finished making your milk based drinks, as you will see in my video

*Automatically does a quick rinse of the coffee/water spout when turned on or off, as you will see in my video (always keep a small cup there to catch the water)

*Allows to reconfigure settings to your preference and memorizes the settings you chose - I.e. more water, less foam, etc. (you can find videos on how to change settings - super easy)

*Has a decent sized water tank that provides multiple drinks before filling up again
*VERY easy to learn and start making coffee right out of the box (just be sure to follow initial cleaning steps first)

*Accommodates whole beans and ground coffee (be sure to read how to do ground coffee, as the machine is supposed to be on, can’t go over a certain amount at a time, etc. - easy to grasp but I want you to get it right)

*Alerts when it’s time to refill water tank or remove coffee grounds from its disposal tank.

*Very quick process and well worth the drink - it’s definitely a treat for my husband and me.

*Has a hot water feature for teas, oatmeal, etc. You pick how much you need (no preset for that, I don’t think). Just be sure to have the hot water spout attached (original spout that you remove to attach the milk container for milk based drinks)
*Very hot temperature, which I love. Just be aware and careful when you first brew and take that first sip. Temperature can be adjusted - just watch a YouTube video or read the manual to learn how.

Cons:

*Ive only found one, and I could be mistaken. But I don’t recall getting an alert when my beans needed refilled. I am new to ground beans and maybe it expects we know how many we should use. I don’t yet know, so I put enough beans in to cover the base. However, I could tell it was out during one of my drinks because I didn’t hear a strong grind. The drink was not good. Not a big deal, but it’s worth calling out if you’re wondering or like me and a newbie to whole beans. We will get it down!

I love this machine, and I am so thankful it was on a deal. We splurged and got it for Christmas for us. My advice - don’t wait another morning without this machine. You deserve this; You won’t be disappointed.

12 month update: We still absolutely love the De'Longhi Magnifica. No issues whatsoever. Guests all rave about how simple the machine is to use, no one needs to clean a portafilter, and drinks taste wonderful. Price has dropped over the past year, it's totally worth it!

3 Month Update: Still loving the De'Longhi Magnifica. Zero issues using it. It’s fast, straightforward, and worth every penny.

Here's my coffee journey through many, many years: Mr. Coffee -->mini-espresso-->French Press-->pour over—>Keurig-->Breville-->De'Longhi.
I LOVE this De'Longhi Magnifica! If I had to narrow it down to one reason, it's that I do not have to wash a portafilter each time I make espresso! Honesty, this is worth every penny. We make 2-6 espressos or coffee nearly every day and some days I would just skip the drink if I have to wash everything again.
Not only does this Magnifica deal with the portafilter for me, I can make a plain cup of coffee, tea, or use other grounds to make any drink.
You can make espresso drinks (hot/cold), coffee, tea, froth milk. So many options in one machine with very little clean up.
At first I was a bit overwhelmed with the buttons, but a little practice and it was a cinch! The espresso taste great and the options are outstanding.
One complaint (which is really minor): the water reservoir is small and must be added to often (lack of water can disrupt a pour). Every night, after my tea, I fill the water reservoir and the beans to be ready for the morning. I dump the grounds every 3-5 days (the machine will notify you) and wash everything that needs it.
When you turn on and off the machine, it will run a quick clean cycle. Place a small glass or pitcher underneath and then the tray won't fill up as quickly.
My first espresso machine was the Breville, which I have loved for years. I've retired it for this one and I love the Magnifica!

*This machine does not come with a milk pitcher.

**The first machine we got had an issue with the steam/water. Anytime we used the steam/water, the machine would freeze for 20-30 minutes! I requested a replacement and that issue did not come up with our new machine.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great machine at a great price

I don't write reviews often and wanted to wait about 6 months to see if I still like the Magnifica Eva. So the answer is yes! I shopped various others and at the end opted for this one because it really does make high-level espresso drinks with a 'one-button' approach. So here are some pro's, con's, and highlights:

Pros: Very simple to use once you get past the instructions. They do need to improve these. But it does make excellent coffee with minimal care. You just have to follow the descaling instructions every few weeks. We use it multiple times a day and it has not failed at all. Also it doesn't consume much counter space.

Cons: Well we have all got used to touchsceens with easy instructions. This is not that machine. Harken back to the 2000's when multi-function buttons were the thing. But once you get used to those, it is very predictable. The water reservoir is a bit on the small side so if you are a big coffee drinker, you will have to fill it daily. Also I haven't used the foaming milk attachments since I really don't want to clean those and a battery whisk is much simpler.

Pro-tips: 1) Use espresso roast beans. They just work better. The per-cup cost is very low since the grinder is very efficient. 2) The isn't much useful guidance on the grinding adjustment settings. After much experimentation, I feel that setting the knob to a "5" worked the best for me. 3) Empty the drip tray daily and give it a quick rinse.

Overall I am very pleased. While the instructions are a bit archaic, you can can understand them with a bit of effort.

I've been a DeLonghi user for over 5 years. This model is a good value. They have improved the espresso machine model by making it simpler to use plus it is quieter than my earlier ECAM model. The footprint is a little smaller which makes it nice on the counetop! I would recommend that you purchase the 4 year extended warranty because I have never owned an espresso machine that didn't begin to have problems around the 2 1/2 year time frame. My last DeLonghi machine started having issues at year 3. The company does a nice job of fixing the issues and only keeping you without a machine for for about 6 or 7 dyas.

Love the machine! Enjoy the whole bean grinder. The freshness and the how the coffee turns out is amazing! The milk frother is extremely handy. Cleans itself after every cup. I chose this model over other models for the type of grinder it uses. The grinder is more robust and uses a metal grinder vice a ceramic grinder. Of course it's a little loud, but nothing that is obnoxious. Overall really enjoy this expresso machine. Recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great & support helped resolve the milk carafe connection issue
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2024
Style: Magnifica Evo with Automatic MilkVerified Purchase
We got our De'Longhi Magnifica Evo with LatteCrema System in December 2023 and it has worked really great up until recently. Beverages are hot and frothing is always perfect. We make sure it is cleaned daily and follow the maintenance instructions; it’s actually not much work at all, it has an easy clean up process. Because of this it is a complete surprise to have it suddenly machine experience trouble recognizing the milk carafe. It has no problem using the clean button when it is connected, but the milk drinks lights no longer turn on when the milk carafe is connected. When I do press the latte button, the clean button light appears and there is an exclamation at top, but even after it finishes the clean process, it doesn’t recognize that the same milk carafe it just finished cleaning is attached. We reached out to support & they helped us resolve this issue (the sensor stopped seeing the milk so we placed a white piece of paper over the bottom sensor as suggested by support & now it works).

I had decided I was tired of going to coffee shops, spending a ton of money and creating more garbage/plastic in the world. I am so grateful I got this machine as I literally do not purchase any coffee outside of my home (unless traveling). I have found my perfect cup for me is 2 x espresso and 1 latte macchiato makes me a perfect cup. And as far as tea goes, it brews a very delicious cup of tea. You can also adjust the water by pressing it a second time (as first time makes about 4 ounces of tea) and when you have your cup filled to your liking, you press the water button again and it will stop the water flow. The temperature of the water is so critical in making an excellent cup of tea, and this machine accomplishes this beautifully. I do wish I had the option to only steam milk to make a London fog latte ( but I also haven’t really done a lot of research to see if I can accomplish this- to be fair).

5.0 out of 5 stars Product delivers - no downsides for those who want to spend time enjoying not making.

I've owned a few days over two months. and product delivers hot (not scalding) drinks made to excellent standards. For the best results use the best beans, water, double walled glasses. Truly fully automatic.
Not complicated but follow directions carefully. Downsides: not a lot of experimentation allowed. Yes you can program a double - but it's easier to just drop in a second shot of expresso.. Also, Use coldest & freshest 2% milk (or preferred substitute) in creamer and don't store overnight in creamer supply container. Use best supplies and clean/descale etc on schedule or ahead of schedule. If warning indicator comes on - First check water and bean supply, and be sure creamer/foamer is attached firmly. Great product so far.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Automatic Espresso Machine I've Owned!!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2022
Style: Magnifica Evo with Automatic MilkVerified Purchase
Ok, that'll probably sounds like a click-grabber since it's the first that I've actually owned. But it's not the first I've used and it seems on par with much more expensive machines I've frequently used (and drooled over).

Set-up was easy and after doing the initial pump-priming I was ready for my first espresso. After the recommended 1st couple of runs I was ready for my first espresso to drink.

It took a few tries to get the balance of grind level/coffee strength to where I wanted it (which was expected) but the pulls are pretty consistently where I want them now. My moment of fear was when I chocked it by making the grinds too fine while I had the strength up to max. I calmed down and figured this out after I looked at the troubleshooting to find what the angry little lights meant and dialed back the grind settings and all was fine. Lesson learned: Don't turn the grind setting wheel too much at a time. Baby steps. My expectation is that if I change the type of beans I'm using I'll probably have to tweak it, but again that's expected.

Those few times when I want a latte or cappuccino the LatteCrema system is a nice alternative to the more time consuming manual process. I got that option mostly for my wife so she could easily make her own cappuccinos and that alone was worth the price of the option. Fat free milk seems to work best for a thicker foam. Higher fat seems to = bigger bubbles.

As others have commented the water container could have been larger. The rinsing cycles will help you go through a lot of water but I appreciate the rinsing to keep all the 'pipes' clean. The LatteCrema system also does it's own rinse cycle which will contribute to the water usage as well. But overall a very small issue and it's easy enough to refill it. Might be nice if they did an 'extended' tank that extends out from the side, but I doubt that we'll see that.

Time will tell on durability. I'm sure taking care of the machine correctly will be a factor in that. As in any automatic device they're more complicated with many moving parts. Your typical coffee machine has a lot less break points and moving parts than an automated one. As a result it will be important to follow the maintenance directions to keep it running and in tip-top shape.

UPDATE: 3 months in and I'm still very happy with the machine, no issues. I've been cleaning it monthly and it's pretty easy. Been putting a new filter in monthly. Personally I've found I like the medium espresso roasts with an Arabica/Robusta blend. So far we've been using Lavazza beans exclusively because the quality/freshness has been good as has the price point. In three months we've gone thru about 6 KG (13 LB) of beans so I guess we're drinking a fair bit of espresso?

This machine is everything I hoped it would be. It makes delicious drinks quickly at the push of a button and takes care of its own cleaning. My only complaint is that I can't easily change beans. Now that I can make espresso so easily I want to drink it all day but can't switch to decaf without using preground coffee, which doesn't come out nearly as good. I might just make it a decaf machine permanently and get my caffeine some other way!
