Our take on the De'Longhi Magnifica S ECAM 21.116.SB
The Magnifica S is De'Longhi's entry-level bean-to-cup espresso machine. It grinds beans fresh, brews espresso and lungo, and has a manual steam wand for milk, all from a compact silver plastic body. It suits people who want fresh-ground coffee at home without paying for a fully automatic milk system, and it is simpler and cheaper-feeling than De'Longhi's Dinamica and Eletta lines, which add touchscreens and one-touch milk. Owners like the coffee and the small footprint; the plastic build and the manual frother are the usual complaints.

What reviewers say
Owners generally rate the Magnifica S as good value for a grinder-equipped automatic, praising the coffee and the simple controls. Common complaints are the plastic build, the manual steam wand and the small water tank.
- BuildCriticisedOwners say the plastic body feels less sturdy than the metal-fronted models above it.
- Coffee qualityPraisedReviewers report hot, fresh-tasting espresso and lungo from the built-in grinder.
- Milk frothingMixedThe manual wand makes decent foam but takes practice and slows down milk drinks.
Questions and answers
- Is the Magnifica S worth it over a pod machine?
- If you drink several coffees a day and want fresh-ground beans, yes. It costs more upfront than a pod machine but uses cheaper beans and gives you grind control.
- How does it compare with the De'Longhi Dinamica?
- The Dinamica adds a touchscreen and one-touch milk frothing. The Magnifica S is simpler and manual on milk, but brews the same style of fresh-ground espresso.
- Does it make cappuccino automatically?
- No. It has a manual steam wand, so you froth and pour the milk yourself.
- Can I use pre-ground coffee?
- Yes. There is a bypass for pre-ground coffee, useful for decaf or a guest's preferred beans.
- How often do I need to descale it?
- The lime indicator tells you when. In hard-water areas expect to descale every few weeks to a couple of months.
- What is in the box?
- The machine, a water filter if included in your region, a measuring scoop and a manual. Check the listing for the exact accessories.
