QUICK SUMMARY
De'Longhi has unveiled the Rivelia Start, a more compact and affordable version of its popular Rivelia bean-to-cup coffee machine.
It's available now from De'Longhi's online store for £599.99, and comes in Brown and Jade Green.
De'Longhi has expanded its popular Rivelia range with the launch of the new Rivelia Start. Arriving as a smaller and more affordable alternative to the original Rivelia, which launched in 2024, the new model keeps many of the popular features whilst reducing both its size and price.
Despite the lower price tag, the Rivelia Start still offers an impressive menu of 10 one-touch hot and cold drinks, including Cappuccino and Flat White. It also retains De'Longhi's Cold Brew function, allowing you to enjoy in as little as five minutes.
The De'Longhi Rivelia Start is available now from De'Longhi's online store for £599.99, compared to the original Rivelia's £749.99 launch price. It's available in Brown and Jade Green, with the latter proving especially popular on the original model.

Having reviewed the original Rivelia when it first launched, it's been interesting to see what De'Longhi has changed this time around. One of the biggest differences is that the LatteCrema Cool carafe is now optional rather than included in the box. If you enjoy iced milk drinks, you'll need to purchase it separately for £99.99, so it's worth factoring that into the overall cost.
That said, I was pleased to see the return of the Bean Switch System, which lets you swap between two different coffee beans without emptying the hopper. There are two interchangeable 250g bean hoppers included, making it easy to switch between different blends.
The Rivelia Start is also designed to be as user-friendly as possible. Instead of relying on a touchscreen, it uses a clear control panel with buttons that's easy to navigate, making it a great option for anyone new to the best bean-to-cup coffee machines.
We'll be getting the De'Longhi Rivelia Start in for review soon, so stay tuned for our full verdict.
