Stilosa vs Classic E24: which fits your counter

Stilosa is 8.1 in (20.5 cm) wide, 13.5 in (34.3 cm) deep and 11.2 in (28.5 cm) tall (delonghi.com, 27 September 2026). Classic E24 is 7.9 in (20 cm) wide, 10.6 in (27 cm) deep and 14 in (35.5 cm) tall (gaggia.com, 6 September 2026). Depth separates them by more than anything else, 2.9 in (7.3 cm). With 13.5 in (34.3 cm) of depth or more, both fit; between 10.6 in (27 cm) and 13.5 in (34.3 cm) only the Classic E24 clears; below 10.6 in (27 cm) neither does. Every figure behind this is a manufacturer's published dimension, and nobody has put a tape on one.

Six rows we can fill. A comparison table is usually the same length whatever is actually known. This one is as long as the evidence and no longer.

Your counter decides it.

If the counter is tight: the Classic E24. If you have the depth: the Stilosa.

Between 10.6 in (27 cm) and 13.5 in (34.3 cm) only the Classic E24 Espresso Machine (RI9380) clears. At 13.5 in (34.3 cm) or more the depth decides nothing, and under 10.6 in (27 cm) neither of them fits. (manufacturer)

We are not picking one. Your counter picks it, and yours is the measurement missing from this page.

Measure from the very back of the item to the very front, including any drip tray or handle.
