From the country that invented and perfected espresso comes a machine of unrivalled versatility. The De'Longhi Magnifica embodies everything truly Italian about coffee: style, quality and the perfect intensity of flavour at the touch of a button.
The unbeatable bean-to-cup experience
About De'Longhi
De’Longhi has been a high-profile Italian brand for more than 100 years, providing high-quality, efficient, innovative and stylish domestic products. Instantly recognisable, De’Longhi possesses a unique design quality that, when combined with De’Longhi technical expertise, creates products that truly stand alone.
De’Longhi Quality and Coffee
Your perfect cup, every single time
Every single bean-to-cup coffee machine is tested and makes a cup of coffee, before being thoroughly cleaned and released to be sold. Each machine is also given a unique barcode to track its history should anything happen to it, certainly a quality investment.
ESAM4200 Magnifica
The ESAM4200 is a must for any budding barista taking their first step into domestic bean-to-cup machines. You can make Espresso and Americano with ease at the touch of a button and using the traditional frothing arm make the perfect lungo, latte, cappuccino or any other milky drink. It produces 15 bar restaurant and coffee house standard coffee in the comfort of your own home, and in the simplest way.
All aspects of a typical professional pump espresso machine (like the ones you see in your highstreet coffee bar), such as grinders, filter holders and steam pipes, are found working inside the Magnifica, De’Longhi has simply redesigned, compacted and hidden them inside the machine. Magnifica expertly performs all of these functions at the touch of one button. The traditional frothing arm allows you to impress your guests by manually frothing the milk whilst making them the perfect cappuccino or latte! Magnifica is one of the best domestic bean-to-cup espresso, lungo, latte and cappucino machine on the market, with ingenious design and patented innovation. It allows consumers to drink 15 bar restaurant and coffee bar standard coffee in the comfort of their own homes.
Simple and stylish
The Bean-to-cup Journey
The function of a bean-to-cup machine is just as the name suggests: literally delivering coffee straight from freshly ground beans into your cup. Magnifica does this in seconds, and yet the coffee is as good and as fresh as any you’ll buy in a coffee bar. After pressing one button to select ‘espresso’, the bean-to-cup journey starts at the integral coffee bean grinder. Magnifica has an adjustable, professional conical burr grinder to expertly grind the beans to your desired coarseness with a choice of 7 settings.
The ground coffee is then packed tightly and the internal brewing unit pushes hot water through the coffee at professional 15 bar pressure. The espresso is then delivered straight into your cup, the whole process taking just seconds. The hallmark of a perfect espresso is recognised by the ‘crema’: a creamy layer that sits on top of the espresso to seal in the temperature and flavour .The thicker the crema, the better the espresso and the quality of the machine that produced it.
If you have run out of coffee beans or want/prefer to use ground coffee instead, using the control panel, just change the settings and put ground coffee in the ground coffee compartment, it’s so convenient and easy to use!
Cappuccino, Latte Macchiato and Caffelatte
Fabulously frothy
The electronic steam and coffee thermostat ensures accurate adjustable steam control. The Magnifica can be set to adjustable quantities of coffee and water which help create that perfect, individually tailored cup of coffee every time!
Style and Design
ESAM4200 Magnifica is such a well-designed machine that it will suit any type of user. It is extremely easy to make espresso, cappuccinos and lattes at the and yet it also has lots of programmable functions for the more serious user, so that strength, temperature and quantity can be easily set.
The stylish silver finish will look stunning in your kitchen. It’s so practical too, as it will inform you when it's time to descale the machine (an automatic function that takes a mere 30 minutes) and it will also tell you when the grounds container needs emptying and when the water tank needs filling, will take you through all the steps of making espresso and cappuccino, and much much more. .
The stylish design and quality build of Magnifica is as you would expect from the high standards of De’Longhi. Magnifica is a stunning machine which will certainly impress your guests and will be an icon within your kitchen.
Let the De'Longhi Magnifica enrich all of your senses and give you an intoxicating and unforgettable coffee experience every day.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Is this thing reliable?,
By Buddha (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: De'Longhi Magnifica ESAM4200 15-Bar Bean To Cup Espresso/Cappuccino Maker, Silver (Kitchen & Home)
I don't often write reviews, but this machine deserves every good word said about it. I have owned one for 3.5 years now, and it's still going strong. So if reliability is what has you sitting on the fence, jump off and buy one. On to the details.
We bought 3 of these in Germany; one as a wedding gift, one for us, and one for my office at work. Unfortunately, when I moved to the UK, I lost the one in the office (office personnel had "joint" purchased it). The one that was a wedding gift is used every day and is still running fine. The office one was used EXTENSIVELY and was still working at the 1.5 year point when I bid a tearful farewell to it. The one in my home... wow. I'm an espresso nut, having lived in Italy for four years. I work that thing to the bone; it has made at least 5 espressos ~every~ single day of those three years that I was home and is still running strong. The only "bad" cup of coffee that I've had from this thing is when I bought low-quality beans. To address some specific things mentioned in other reviews, I'd just like to say that this thing makes crema so well that sugar will sit on top of it...if you know the trick. Use a properly-sized espresso cup and heat it before making your coffee. Rather than relying on the heater on top of the machine (the silver part in the picture), just boil some water in the kettle and dump it in the cup; it's a lot faster. Adjust the dispensing spout -- the part with two little silver spouts directly above the cups in the picture. That piece moves up and down. The closer you get it to your cup, the better the crema. Adjust your grind; regardless of what others may have experienced, I find the adjustable grind to be perfect. It is, however, VERY dependent on what type of beans you use. I've had to tweak it nearly every time I use a different type of beans to get it to the perfect grind. Also, if you find that the puck grounds get mouldy from sitting too long, my only comment is this -- you're not drinking enough coffee. ;-) Last note before pros/cons/tips -- this machine requires that ~you~ put milk in a container and froth it for cappucino; it's not "fully" automatic, but the frothing bit works great (when used with skill). Pros *Extremely reliable (3 machines monitored over 3.5 years with no flaws) *Near-perfect espresso *Capability to use pre-ground (separate compartment, one cup at a time) for the decaf crowd *Great frothing tool for cappucino (see tips) *Fully adjustable grind, strength (amount of coffee used) and water (for "long" coffees) with single or double cup buttons *Auto shut-off after about 2hrs Cons *A touch on the noisy side during start up and when it grinds *Can scramble your freeview signal (though this is the fault of house wiring/antenna, not the machine) *Doesn't know when I'm going to wake up and automatically have an espresso ready for me when I get to the kitchen Tips *Read the manual. No, really. Read the manual. *Use quality coffee. Always. (Lavazza Rosso or Espresso is good, Il Pascucci from southern Italy if you can find it) *Pay attention to getting your grind set right *Heat your cups with boiling water before making the coffee *Make all of your espresso shots BEFORE switching to frothing mode for cappucino *Use the descaler that comes with it, then switch to white vinegar for cleaning (has worked for me for 2 years) *Go on vacation to Italy and learn how to make proper espresso and how to froth milk -- it really is an art *Honestly -- it takes time to perfect the frothing. Don't give up until you've talked to someone that knows how. So what am I doing on Amazon looking at these if mine is so reliable? Yep, you caught me ... I'm thinking of buying another one for the office here...

4.0 out of 5 stars
Still early days, but promising so far.,
By
This review is from: De'Longhi Magnifica ESAM4200 15-Bar Bean To Cup Espresso/Cappuccino Maker, Silver (Kitchen & Home)
OK Amazon, no pressure but I decided to buy this machine specifically because of the number of positive reviews. The way I see it, people are far more inclined to report when things are bad rather than good, so this many good reviews had to be a good thing right?
Anyway, what about the De'Longhi Magnifica ESAN4200 then? Well I'm going to start with the one thing which prevented me giving it 5 stars - It's no super model! Don't get me wrong, it's not hideous, but there's no getting away from the fact that it's silver painted plastic, and then only the front panel. All the rest is just plain black plastic. If you want a thing of beauty then you need to be prepared to fork out £600-700 on a Jura Ena 5. Now the good stuff: 1. It's thoughtfully designed and quite compact. It hardly takes up much more space than my old, manual Dualit espresso machine that it replaced. 2. Having the water tank accessible from the FRONT is a great idea, as you can slot it between other stuff on the counter and still fill the water easily. In fact you don't even have to remove the tank, just slide it out a bit and top up with a jug rather than carry it full across the kitchen. I don't understand why other manufacturers think hiding them round the back makes anyone's life easy.... 3. All the bits that need cleaning (drip tray, coffee grounds bin and brew unit) are easily accessible and removable, and access to the insides is easy for a wipe round. I'm not going to make any comments yet about the build quality as it's early days, and as I say, it's all plastic, but it looks pretty robust. 4. The controls are VERY easy to use. I particularly like having rotary controls for water volume and amount of coffee and it's easier to fine tune to suit your taste. 5. IT MAKES GOOD COFFEE! You will need to have a good play and experiment to get things right, but so far I'm really quite impressed. Assuming you want an espresso strong enough to use to make a latte or Americano (the latter by adding hot water to the espresso, NOT but running extra water through the grounds using the machine), I'd recommend the following: - Crank the right-hand coffee strength (amount) dial all the way to MAX - Set the left-hand water volume (drink size) to about 9 or 10 o'clock (i.e. about 1/4 of it's total travel) Subject to your particular beans, the above should give you a properly strong espresso shot, with the water stopping just as the colour of the extracted brew starts to fade, rather than continuing until it's like dirty water. Despite the warnings in the instruction manual, I've not found any problems with the speed of coffee delivery, as the pump seems to cope just fine. Obviously this might not be the case if you start adjusting the grinder settings down towards 1 from the factory pre-set 5, but again, this is something to try out. Overall then, a promising start and hopefully the start of a long and happy relationship. If things work out, I'm planning to work this machine like a dog and possibly treat myself to an upgrade to a Jura next year if I find I use this one enough. p.s. After some investigations, I've discovered that the basic internals of this machine (brewing unit, grinder, basically the bits that actually make the espresso) are the same as Delonghi's most expensive machines. So in terms of quality of coffee and robustness of the mechanical bits, this unit is as good as some three times the price. All you get with the more expensive machines is fancy frothing sections and a posh case.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Great coffee but only lasts for 2 years,
By gep "gep" (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: De'Longhi Magnifica ESAM4200 15-Bar Bean To Cup Espresso/Cappuccino Maker, Silver (Kitchen & Home)
Firstly this machine provides great coffee. It is simple to use and everyone who has visited us remarked on the quality of the brews. If it is great tasting coffee you want, in a machine that is simple enough to use then get this but BEWARE.
After two years it broke down. We took it to the DeLonghi registered repairers and the cost to repair was prohibitive. The repair guy was helpful though as he explained that there is a hidden counter inside that records the number of coffees you have made and so helps the service engineers. His view was that the machine thus broke down prematurely if out of warranty and that we should write to de Longhi. Two letters and two email inquiries later we have given up with them. They did not refuse to do anything about this but simply have ignored all four communications. So "buyer beware" from our experience this excellent machine will last on medium use for two years before terminal break down, despite careful and sensitive use. De Longhi appear to be indifferent to this limited life cycle. Shame really. In sum: Five stars for coffee, One star for value for money since it lasts two years with medium use, One star for non existent de Longhi customer service.
