Jura ENA 8 vs Philips 5400 Lattego

Q: Is the ENA 8 better than the 5400 Lattego?

It depends on your priorities. The Jura ENA 8 excels for users who want stunning 360-degree design for small spaces, while the Philips 5400 Lattego is the better choice if you prioritize 12 drink options and extra-shot function.

Q: How do the grinders compare?

The ENA 8 uses a Steel Conical, whereas the 5400 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 ENA 8 uses a Fixed brew group, while the 5400 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 ENA 8 if you:

Want a stunning 360-degree design for small spaces.
Want a cafe-style menu with one-touch convenience.
Prefer a fixed brew group that cleans itself automatically.

Buy the 5400 Lattego if you:

Want the extra-shot function for stronger drinks.
Want the easiest-to-clean milk system (LatteGo) on the market.
Want premium features like profiles and 12 drink options.
