No spec where it is clearly ahead, based on what both listings state.

Every spec, with its source

Only specs both sides state can win. A “Not stated” never wins or loses.

Brewing

Heating system

Dual boilers and heat exchangers can brew and steam at the same time with stable temperature. Thermoblocks heat fast but drift more.

De'Longhi Stilosa Not stated
Pump pressure

Espresso is brewed at about 9 bar. Higher numbers on the box are maximum pump ratings and do not make better coffee, so we do not score them.

Average: 20 bar

Milk

Milk frothing

A manual steam wand gives the best microfoam for latte art but takes practice. Automatic systems are easier but less flexible.

Water tank

A bigger tank means refilling less often. For two milk drinks a day, about 60 oz lasts several days.
