ENA 5 vs ENA 4 - What Changed
| Feature | ENA 5 (discont.) | ENA 4 (current) |
|---|---|---|
| Specialties | 5 | 8 |
| Grinder | Aroma G2 | Aroma G3 |
| Water tank | 37 fl oz | 37 fl oz |
| App connectivity | Limited | J.O.E. app full support |
| Display | Small LCD | Updated interface |
| New purchase | Not available | ~$799 |
The ENA 4 added 3 more specialty drinks, the newer G3 grinder (better grind consistency, lower noise), and full J.O.E. app integration for programming from your phone.
Should You Buy a Used ENA 5?
A used ENA 5 in good condition from a reputable seller can be a reasonable purchase if priced below $350. Key considerations:
Check before buying:
- Brew count history (if the seller can provide it). ENA 5 brew units are rated for approximately 15,000 cycles before requiring service.
- Whether the seller has the original descaling certificate or maintenance history
- Return policy - super-automatics can have issues that only appear after a few weeks of use
Skip the used ENA 5 if:
- Price is above $400 - at that point the ENA 4 at $799 new is a better long-term value
- No return option is available
- Seller cannot confirm the machine has been regularly descaled
Current Alternative
