Magnificent magnifca – I took in my 15 years old magnifica for repairs then checked the showroom to find the new upgraded model on special. Rather than risk more repairs, i decided to invest in a new machine and what a good investment having an upgraded model! Pros: The new machine is slightly more compact, the steam function more powerful with a number of attractive… Read more

added features.

I am now able to set the water temperature used to make coffee, select strength of coffee by adjusting the taste and quantity of coffee beans the appliance will grind. I can also adjust the coffee mill to make a creamier cup.

There's less waste of water on turn on and off.

Extra function like the energy saving mode is not necessary in australia as the machine is made for the italian market where they have to deal with power surges. Nor do I need to bother with setting the water hardness as we have very good quality water in Melbourne. Aside from these all other internal features are pretty much identical so it is easy to navigate for me.

I am now into week 1 with my machine and loving the consistently good coffees it is producing.

Cons: It would be good to have the coffee grind level bumped up a bit more for a stronger coffee.

The blue cup tray although it looks good I am finding out scratches easily.

Just Ok with a LOT of room for improvements – I purchased this machine due to becoming tired with the hassle of making coffee with an espresso machine. This machine works ok but I would not rave about it. The coffee is weak compared to espresso if you set it to fill the cup with more than 25% water. The variable height of the coffee spout is only useful for tall mugs - it does not reach… Read more

down to low/wide coffee cups which means you need to reduce the coffee fill setting to avoid overflowing the cup.

The two coffee spouts are too close together, you can't put two low/wide cups under them, have to make one cup of coffee at a time.

The cappuccino maker works very well but it has an annoying tab that gets in the way and it can't swing outside the machine which makes it hard to get a milk jug under the cappuccino steam nozzle.

After using the cappuccino maker I can't go back to making coffee - have to turn the machine off and on which goes through a clean cycle and takes time - annoying.

The water tank is small.

The build quality is very plastic - should not cost the same as an all metal espresso machine (I purchased it on sale, would not pay full price).

Can't live without it))) – Purchased this machine last week at Myer. It works great. I am very happy with its perfomance. The coffee is delicious. Easy to use. Stylish and elegant design, this machine looks great on our kitchen bench. I just wanted an automatic coffee machine with a coffee mill, which can make a milk froth, something not too expensive and easy to use etc.… Read more

We used Lavazza Espresso beans from the supermarket. This machine makes beautiful delicious cappuccino. It takes a few days to play with the settings and identify the correct knob position through trial and error. This coffee is really wake me up). It helps you to save some money on the coffee from a coffee shop (you can make your perfect cappuccino at home and take it with you in a travel mug). We had a capsule machine before and this machine is so much better. It's easy to modify the temperature of the water used to make the coffee - just read the manual. My husband use a similar coffee machine by Delonghi at work, and they have never had any issues with it. Thanks to Myer and Afterpay. This coffee machine is on special now, so do not think too much) Highly recommend this coffee machine.

A good performer so far after 4 months – Purchased from Harvey Norman for $600 NZ pesos. Unit has not had any issues, though grind a little awkward to adjust. Takes fine adjustment to get the best extraction form your coffe, so trial and error was applied here. The brew prcess is quick an efficient with a preinfused shot. Coffee quality is acceptable as long as you use fresh coffee. Easy to empty and refill. Show details

Easy to Use, great tasting Coffee from this machine – I bought this machine to avoid using pods and I have been happily surprised with the ease of use and the great taste of the coffee it produced at the press of a button. Of course, one must choose quality beans, and I had a few trial & errors. However, once I had found the beans I like, enjoying my coffee at a fraction of the price of cafes, is… Read more

very satisfying! Easy to clean, warnings for full bins and empty water tank. Includes an Eco cycle, which turns off the machine if not in use after 30 minutes.Simple instructions means you only need to read the instruction book once!

Exceeded my admittedly low expectations – I had been feeling really guilty about using pods and decided to reduce my carbon footprint. Myer had a sale and I bagged the black one as they did not have the silver finish on sale. I am told that this is their entry model and I was looking for something that was not too large as the Nespresso machine only occupied a small portion of my… Read more

kitchen counter.

Setting up wasn't too difficult, but as the product guide and certainly other commentators here have said, it takes a few tries before you get the right setting. It took me more than 6 tries before I got the blend that I liked and it hasn't disappointed so far. I haven't used the frother as my little one wouldn't afford me that luxury.

If one were pedantic, my only complains are that the water canister is just a tad too small and the bean storage could also be a little more generous in size - but then again it's a necessary trade-off that suits my circumstance.

Disappointed with the coffee from this our first fully auto machine – Our first fully auto machine. As dedicated espresso drinkers the morning shot is disappointing and nowhere near the quality we get from our old delonghi machine now at the shack. Temperature is variable and at times almost tepid. Volume of shots varies considerably and we get nothing like the crema the old machine produces even at the finest… Read more

possible grind. It just doesn’t seem to “pack enough in” and this reflects in the flavour and texture which could be described as “wishy-washy. I also agree that the way of putting pre-ground coffee in is very awkward and can result in ground coffe being spilled into the inner workings. Looking to revert to a manual to take more direct control over what’s delivered.

Good, once I worked it out – I am satisfied with the quality of the coffee produced by the machine. I had trouble setting it up and working how to use it properly, which did take a while and alot of YouTube videos. The coffee is consistent a d tasty and the temperature is good too. I would say that it does take some patients though. Overall it is ok  Show details

Does the job – Great machine, upgraded from a manual DeLonghi. Great for making espresso, easy to use, grinds the beans from scratch. Also allows for use of pre-ground coffee (though why would you?) I don't use the frother much so can't vouch for that, but for anyone who likes their coffee black this machine is great.  Show details

Replacement for a much loved Saeco – With the sudden death of our old reliable Saeco machine we needed a new one quickly with a house full of visitors descending for a few weeks. Some quick research and a limited budget led us to this model. Very impressed. Makes excellent coffee once you have your favourite settings and beans sorted, Doesn’t need filling or emptying as much as the… Read more

old one, but does require descaling regularly. Sturdily built, efficient and the coffee tastes good. Can’t ask for more than that.

So Easy to use – Very satisfied with the ease of use and the quality of coffee for an automated machine. Consistent results and simple to maintain. The only issue we have had is the in-built grinder has blocked on the finest setting and needed to be run a few times on the course setting to clear. Enjoy!  Show details

Convenience and great – I bought a second factory coffee machine and I am happy with it. It might not be the best but it's great, easy and convenient to use. I have heard that Delonghi service wasn't good but it's pretty good for me. The machine is a bit annoying when I stream milk and have to wait for a while to turn to espresso mode again which I thought it was… Read more

defected so I emailed them about it.They contacted me and arrange to pick it up within a week but it took 2 weeks to check and drop off which wasn't bad.

Working fine – This coffee machine is just great, but they could have a few spots improved like the water tank could be a bit bigger so people don’t have to fill up the tank every second day. The other one is the space you put the ground coffee in is ridiculously small...can’t even put the spoon in straight without turning am angle.  Show details

Two in one is great! – I love how you can make multiple drinks in the one go very simply to use and simply to take apart and store away under the kitchen bench. The coffee taste very good and the milk taste very fresh and fluffie. Bought this as a gift to my wife and I use it way more  Show details

Good Coffee Machine but DeLonghi backup is terrible – The machine is easy to set up and makes good coffee but the backup from DeLonghi is worse than useless. After following the detailed instructions to set the machine according to our measured water hardness I enquired with DeLonghi how often I'd need to descale. They advised that the instructions in the User Manual should not be followed and… Read more

that I should be setting on maximum Hardness Setting no matter what the result was from using the provided DeLonghi test strip.

They then sent me out a water filter which they advised should have come with the machine. Unfortunately the water filter provided comes with instructions that include "The coffee machine water filter will NOT fit machines with model numbers beginning with 'ESAM', and there is no current alternative."

A good quality coffee machine – The machine easy to operate and provides good quality coffee. The only issue in the machine is the descaling error light. I have descaled as per the instruction but the error light keep flashing. We are not bothered that much as it is still in operating condition. The more we use the machine the quality is getting better compare to the day one. Recommended to everyone, whoever planning to spend that much of money in the coffer machine.  Show details

we love it – OMG makes a great coffee, you can set the temperature and we enjoy hot cappucinno every morning with breakfast. It was a little difficult to first use when we brought this item, but after the initial confusion it was straight forward. Very happy with our purchase and def recommend this product  Show details

Steamer broke after 2 uses in 5 days... getting the run around from Myer on exchanging but Delonghi – Coffee tastes a bit watery with not much crema despite following instructions on reducing the grind size and cup size and upping the concentration to the max. Steamer worked properly twice then broke. Not impressed, buyer beware. Myer wanted me to talk to Delonghi before exchanging, sat on hold for 5 mins but then he was helpful and agreed to an… Read more

immediate new for new exchange. I don't really have confidence so am going to get something else.

All in all a waste of my time for not great coffee. Back to a manual machine I think.

Nice and easy to use. Coffee doesn't taste too bad. Frothing a lot better than it's predecessors – Nice and easy to use. Coffee doesn't taste too bad. Maybe it will taste better once I have perfected the grind, beans quantity and water settings. Frothing is a lot stronger than it's predecessor so that is great. Overall, not a bad buy at all as it's automated bean to cup. No dramas of needing a separate grinder and a knock box so good value for money  Show details

Love it – I bought this after my sister had her older model for over 5 years with no issues. Good coffee, easy to use and I have had no issues since purchasing this 6 months ago. Only thing is it is more involved to clean it than a machine where you pack the beans yourself.  Show details

Love this machine – Received as a wedding gift, cant comment on pricing as I dont know if I would have forked out so much. Wasnt happy with it at first, but realised after a few months of using it that it just required some fine tuning to get it the way we like it! The machine is easy to use with straight forward buttons/dials. Easy to clean. If youre a coffee… Read more

lover, you probably would want it on the fine grind setting. Not knowing much about coffee making, I realised a little late that you get 1 shot of coffee per button press - meaning, amount of coffee is not dependant on volume of water. Once I figured that out I turned the water volume to the lowest and increased the strength and voila. Before figuring this out my coffee always tasted a little watered down, but again it just needed some personal fine tuning.

My only complaint being an 'extra hot' coffee person would be the temperature of the water which - I dont know yet if there is a way to set this to be hotter. And needing to descale a little too often at burnt_sausages mentions.

Very happy with our Magnifica

Love it! – Bought this as a gift for my husband. The whole family love it. Easy to adjust strength & volume of coffee. Very easy to use & clean. My only negative would be that it seems to need descaling very regularly to the point we now ignore the alarm light for that.  Show details

Consistent coffee machine – I bought this coffee machine as we have had another Delonghi S ECAM22110SB. These machines are easy to use and easy to clean. I don't often use the milk frother but was easy enough to use when I did try it out. The water tank holds a reasonable volume of water. This machine is great for making coffee before work in the morning.  Show details

Great value for money and a great expresso machine!!! – I don’t know where ‘Sasha’ gets that 'the quality is very poor, next to no crema, coffee is weak even at the strongest setting and finest grind setting'? ‘Sasha’ you should purchase better quality coffee if you don't get 'crema' as I've never had that problem with the coffee beans that I use and I get 'exceptional crema' every time with this… Read more

machine! And as for ‘mikecatts’ and ‘Stellabella1980’, get a separate 'milk frothier' (they are very cheap $35.00+ and will make a much better milk froth) as the Steam spout on this machine was never intended to be used like a professional machine (costing 5k to 10k) is meant to be used. That's what I've always used and I have only used the 'steamer as an occasional thing. From my experience and I’ve had the 'Magnifica ESAM 04.110.B' since 2017, and also had the previous model the 'Magnifica ESAM 3200.S' which this machine is an exact copy of, since 2006 and 12 years. This is what I’ve experience with the 'Magnifica ESAM 04.110.B' and it’s a great value for money expresso machine that makes exceptional expresso coffee for $599.00.

This and the previous models are a very efficient and an excellent maker of expresso coffee, it either uses bean coffee or ground coffee, the grinding process is a bit loud but so are any grinders of coffee beans. The electricals of the previous model was a bit fragile and prone to failures, mainly with its automated coffee making system that was prone to circuitry shortages. I hope that this is not the case with this current model but, as a precaution i would suggest that people take out the '48 months Product Care and Replace' insurance as, anything that goes wrong with these sorts of machines, will virtually cost you close to the price of a new one. In saying all that, I've been using this model of DeLogghi 'Magnifica' for 12 years and I suggest that every user should maintain this machine regularly by; cleaning all internal components with a small hair brush, descaling it and cleaning the infuser with tap water and using food grade lubricant to make sure that the infusers internal movable part is well lubricated, these are very important steps that every owner should do regularly or check. Most of the problems that I have had (with the previous model) have occured due to not servicing it regularly,

I have had great results and cups of coffee and the longevity of my previous model speaks for itself, as the old model 'ESAM 3200.S' lasted 11 years with only one service call. Another thing, I bought this current model, brand new, for virtually half the price of the last one at $599.00. The materials are virtually the same except for the top, where a stainless steel cup tray (on the old one) has been replaced with a powder coated one in the new model. I'm very satesfied with the 'Magnifica ESAM 04.110.B' and I've had no problems with it. Just remember to clean it regularley and descale the water whenever its required.

Quality machine but lacks fast and easy use – I bought this machine for a workplace, although the machine creates quite nice tasting coffee it is somewhat difficult to setup and operate compared to previous machines. The coffee machine is also quite slow at turning on and heating up the milk frother, but as a whole it is a quality machine.  Show details

Great machine – Had machine for 2 months now and very happy. Takes a little while to get the grind and strength settings to suit your taste but once you find it you can set and forget. Milk frother/steam wand easy enough to clean after each use. Had been using pod machine prior but would highly recommend this machine.  Show details

Good mid range machine – Bought this model to replace my pod based machines after feeling guilty about the environmental impact. Had to do a little experimenting, but if you buy quality beans and store them correctly, this machine produces good tasting coffee. Disappointed you couldn't adjust the grind and amount of coffee dispensed with more precision. Simple to keep clean and seems reliable so far. Very happy with my purcase.  Show details

It's practical and good – Indeed I like the outcome of this machine, the frother is good, the grinder as well. Yes it's simple and easy to use and every member of the family can use it easily. The way it needed to be clean is automatic, it takes some time but it's efficient and reasonable.  Show details

A Continuation of a great and previous expresso coffee machine model – The DeLogghi 'Magnifica ESAM 04.110.B' is based and virtually an exact copy of their older model the 'Magnifica ESAM 3200.S'. Both of these models are a very efficient and an excellent maker of expresso coffee, it either uses bean coffee or ground coffee, the grinding process is a bit loud but so are any grinders of coffee beans and makes a… Read more

perfect cup of expresso coffee. The electricals of the previous model were a bit fragile and prone to failures mainly with its automated coffee making system, that was prone to circuitry shortages.

I have had great results and cups of coffee and the longevity of my previous model was 'very acceptable' as the old model 'ESAM 3200.S' lasted 13 years with only one service call. Another thing, I bought this current model, brand new, for virtually half the price the last one was at 599.00. The materials are virtually the same except for the top, where a stainless steel cup tray (on the old one) has been replaced with a powder coated one in the new model.

Finally, and I'm not in anyway associated with DeLogghi or getting paid in any way for this review but, if you want an efficient and proven brand of an expresso coffee making machine, and you don't want to pay 'an arm and a leg' for, I would highly recommend this 'DeLogghi 'Magnifica ESAM 04.110.B'. Btw, just as a historical note, the 'DeLogghi company was founded in Treviso, Italy by the De'Longhi family in 1902 as a small industrial parts manufacturing workshop. The company was incorporated in 1950 and was especially well known for the Artista Series espresso machines and their ingenuity to bring barista making coffee machines into the home.

Very weak coffee, lacking taste – The coffee machine is very easy to operate, you can get a cup of coffee in a couple of minutes. However, the quality is very poor, next to no crema, coffee is weak even at the strongest setting and finest grind setting. I suspect that the built-in grinder is a problem, too coarse for real expresso. I do not use frother, can't comment on the quality. if you like your coffee strong and with crema, do not buy this delonghi coffee machine  Show details

Rubbish, cheaply made machine that broke in 2 days of purchase. no control over milk temp.. luke war – Bought this 2 days ago and the grinder broke/wont grind/making a funny noise.. The milk throffer isnt too good. It will only let you make a capachino type throff.. no good for steaming milk.. Over all this unit isnt too good as a coffee machine.. More of a "gimic" as to a proper barrista type of machine.. You cant get the coffee/milk hot,… Read more

basically luke warm.... Not too many options when deciding what type of coffee you want. for the high price on this unit.. Ide say "stay away" from it.. Get a machine that has a group head as you have more control.. Now the fun begins to return for the money back.. Im buying another brand.. Sunbeam has been reliable to me over the years.
