De'Longhi Rivelia LatteCrema vs Siemens Home Appliances EQ500 iAroma
Technical comparison · Bean-to-cup machines
The choice between Rivelia LatteCrema and EQ500 iAroma comes down to the ground-coffee bypass: only the De'Longhi has one, for anyone who wants to switch to decaf or a different blend without touching the bean hopper. Without that need, price and the number of saved recipes matter more.

Which one to choose
Choose Rivelia LatteCrema if…
Anyone who alternates decaf and regular coffee through the day uses the ground-coffee bypass instead of buying a second grinder. The trade-off is on the milk side: the carafe has to be filled and kept in the fridge between uses, and the recipe menu is more basic than on a machine with an automatic milk tube.
Choose EQ500 iAroma if…
Anyone who prepares several different drinks over the day — from cappuccino to iced latte — gets a direct line to the fridge carton through EQ500's automatic milk tube, without filling a separate carafe. The trade-off is losing the option to switch to pre-ground coffee without touching the bean hopper.
