Our verdict
The Magnifica Evo Next is De'Longhi's best all-rounder under £500 and punches well above its price. The 2.4-inch colour TFT display is clear and responsive, 13 grind settings let you dial in your preferred strength, and the LatteCrema one-touch milk carafe delivers silky cappuccinos with minimal effort. The removable brew group is a huge maintenance advantage — just rinse it under the tap weekly. If you want premium features without spending four figures, this is the one.
