DeLonghi Magnifica Evo vs Philips 3200 Lattego

Q: Is the Magnifica Evo better than the 3200 Lattego?

It depends on your priorities. The DeLonghi Magnifica Evo excels for users who want one-touch cappuccinos at a great value, while the Philips 3200 Lattego is the better choice if you prioritize the insanely easy-to-clean LatteGo milk system.

Q: How do the grinders compare?

The Magnifica Evo uses a Steel Conical, whereas the 3200 Lattego features a Ceramic Flat. While both are high-quality internal systems, they are sealed components. To prevent clogging and avoid expensive repairs, we strongly recommend using non-oily, medium-roast beans in both machines.

Q: Which machine is easier to clean?

The Magnifica Evo uses a Removable brew group, while the 3200 Lattego uses a Removable system. Generally, removable groups (like DeLonghi) allow for manual rinsing under a tap, while fixed groups (like Jura) rely on automated tablet cleaning cycles.

Buy the Magnifica Evo if you:

Want one-touch cappuccinos at a great value.
Want the LatteCrema system without the premium price tag.
Appreciate the durability of a steel conical grinder.

Buy the 3200 Lattego if you:

Want the easiest-to-clean milk system (LatteGo) on the market.
Need a simple, reliable machine for daily cappuccinos.
Want true super-automatic convenience on a budget.

Expert Verdict
