Here is a detailed heat-up time comparison for some decent espresso machines, ranked from fastest to slowest:

Machine Heat-Up Time Why?
Decent DE1 Pro 3-5 min Uses thermoblock heating (like an electric kettle).
Ascaso Steel Duo PID 3-5 min Thermoblock (not a traditional boiler).
La Marzocco Linea Micra 5-10 min Small boilers + saturated group for efficiency.
Rocket Apartamento 15-20 min Heat-exchange (HX) system needs time to stabilize.
Profitec Pro 600 20-25 min E61 group + dual boilers take longer to heat evenly.
Lelit Bianca 20-30 min E61 group + larger boilers = slower heat-up.
Sanremo YOU 25-30 min Commercial-style dual boilers + advanced tech.
