ViperScore breakdown
Should you buy the De'Longhi Magnifica Evo?
The Magnifica Evo is for the household that wants a super-automatic with more drink options and a bigger tank than the Philips 3200, and doesn't mind paying for it. Seven one-touch recipes, a removable milk carafe and MyLatte personalization make it the more 'featured' of the two.
Where it earns its score
- Seven one-touch drinks plus MyLatte. Save your own drink size and strength.
- LatteCrema carafe. Automatic milk with a removable, fridge-storable carafe.
- 60 oz tank. Bigger than the Philips.
- Removable brew group. Rinses under the tap; a genuine maintenance advantage.
- Features 88. The highest feature score among the super-automatics.
What to know first
- $599.95 list. Value 72; it's regularly discounted, so check the current price.
- Quality 74. Plastic-heavy like its rivals.
- Milk carafe cleaning. More parts than the Philips LatteGo.
Our verdict
The Magnifica Evo scores 77, Fair Buy. It's the better-equipped super-automatic; the Philips is the cheaper, simpler one. If it's on sale near the Philips's price, buy the De'Longhi.
