New Entry-Level Espresso Machines by Delonghi. Magnifica Start Review: ECAM 220.21, 220.22, 220.30, 220.31 etc

Delonghi Magnifica Start is, as the name suggests, the new entry level automatic bean-to-cup espresso machine by Delonghi. New models are in stock since October-November 2022, so it might take some time to arrive to your local distributor. Please also check my video review on this machine at YouTube. In fact, Magnifica Start is a name for a whole range of slightly different models։ ECAM220.21, […]

Delonghi EC702/EC710 Review. An Old Premium, Still Worth Buying.

The Delonghi EC702 espresso machine (EC710 in Europe) is one of the last models from ’00s, which is still available on the market. It was a ‘pre-flagship’ model in Delonghi’s range and it’s still worth buying it – it’s better built if compared to modern models, however, have more usablity issues. The construction and all the main parts – boiler, pump etc – didn’t change […]

Should you buy Delonghi’s outdated espresso machines in 2019? De’Longhi BAR32 Retro and EC190/201/220/221 Test & Review

BAR32/EC190 has an outdated design and one of the lowest price. However, 99% of espresso-related parts are the same as used in modern models by Delonghi. One model in Delonghi’s range of manual espresso machines has the record high number of ‘clones’ – different names, under which this machine is sold on different markets. It is known as Delonghi BAR32 Retro or EC220CD in the […]

DeLonghi EC9335 La Specialista Review. Semi-professional? Nope.

De’Longhi La Specialista EC 9335 will be available on the global market since 2019. However, I had a chance to test this machine during the IFA 2018 Trade Show in Berlin this September. Thus my article is probably the first DeLonghi EC9335M review on the Web. I will add more information and thoughts later because DeLonghi is likely to make small modifications before launching serial […]

Delonghi EC155/156 and EC145/146. They both look the same, so which one should I buy? Review and Comparison.

In almost every country, the Delonghi EC155 is the cheapest espresso machine on the market from an Italian brand (Ariete, Delonghi, Gaggia or Saeco). It is a quite old, well-known model and the web is full of positive reviews of this coffee maker. However, now in 2018 I would rather recommend buying the Delonghi ECP31.21 (ECP3420 in the States), which is in fact the successor to […]

Delonghi ECP 31.21, 33.21, 35.31 review. The right balance of the price, the metal body and the quality + unique milk foam regulator.

What I like most about Delonghi company is that its engineers are constantly launching new models trying to fulfill expectations of different customers. While Saeco’s main pump espresso maker Poemia has been produced with minor changes for almost a decade, Delonghi now has a huge model range of espresso makers. Most of them are identical under the hood as I mentioned in Delonghi ECOV310 review. Nevertheless, […]

Delonghi Magnifica ESAM 3000/3300: detailed review and comparison with the ESAM 2200/2800/3200

Holy War In the class of the most affordable bean-to-cup coffee machines, a fight to the death has been raging for quite some time. Everyone knows the key players: the Philips Saeco concern represented by the Saeco Xsmall, which I have already described, and the Delonghi ESAM range. Their price policies differ depending on the market: Delonghi offers a better price in some countries (for […]

DEDICA EC 680.R control panel and cup heater on the top185

Delonghi EC 680/685 Dedica: a narrow and compact espresso maker with automatic dosing and a thermoblock for lovers of long coffee.

Compared to its more affordable competitors, the De’Longhi Dedica EC 680.M espresso machine looks like a classic limo next to a Hyundai Accent. There can be no doubt that its design is a success. It looks classy, respectable and expensive. The width of the full-metal body is rather impressive – only 15 cm, which makes it one of the narrowest espresso machines on the market. […]

Delonghi Icona Eco 310 and 311 Espresso Coffee Makers Review

Delonghi ECO 311 espresso coffee makers replaced the ECO 310 Icona model that had been produced since 2010. In fact, these two models have almost no differences. All inner parts remained the same. However, this can be said about almost any other espresso coffee maker of this brand. It is Simply a Matter of Marketing. The Manufacturer has Decided to Update a Product Line Every […]
