Perfect from the 1st cup!

I recieved my KF8 on Jan 23rd and have made so many different drinks without a single disappointment! Upon unboxing, I followed the steps to prepare the machine, with exception to making the 4-5 "prep" espressos, i just jumped right on in. My first cup was worlds apart than any Nespresso, Keurig, or any other machine out there! So tasty! I have already set my favorites in my profile and start my day with a latte macchiato, then make a double espresso for an iced coffee on the go. I noticed some reviews state that the temperature does not get warm enough, but they must have had a defective machine or didnt change the temp in the profile, as mine brews hot! While the machine is pricy, it is absolutely worth every penny! I do not regret my decision to grab this one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy Peasy, No Mess Espress-O Maker

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this machine! So versatile. No mess. So easy to keep clean because it keeps itself clean. Does it all and makes great drinks! Only one thing I would change....the temp setting. The hottest temp for hot drinks is not hot enough to remain at that temp. When you add warm milk or frothed milk, the temp of the coffee goes from hot to warm, and before you know it your drink is luke warm. Maybe change the temp of warm milk so it doesn't cool the espresso. For those who like to sip for a while, your drink is cold within just a few minutes.

At last, a really great coffee machine!

We bought this about 2 months ago and absolutely love it! Best coffee machine we have ever had. Love that you can have several people's individual coffee favs. saved on the machine. Makes making a great coffee so easy. The frothed milk makes a lovely base for a hot chocolate with chocolate syrup too. Looks great on the countertop and the oblong shape means it doesn't take up too much room across the counter. Well worth the money. We bought an extra milk container as my husband, and I like different milk so we keep both the milk containers in the fridge so they are at 'the ready'.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not hot coffee
on September 9, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So happy with the machine but the only draw back is the temperature of the coffee. All the drinks are made warm not hot. Even on the hottest setting makes pretty luke warm coffee.

New kid on the block takes over
on September 10, 2024

I recently purchased the KitchenAid KF8 Juniper, and I must say it’s worth every penny. Yes, it’s a bit on the pricier side, but the options it offers are unparalleled. This machine can do it all, from strong espresso to a smooth cappuccino. What truly impressed me is the smart cleaning feature and the ease you can switch between beans. No hassle anymore to have a strong espresso in the morning to a nice decaf in the evening. Gone are the days of struggling with cleanup—this machine tells you exactly when and how to clean it, making maintenance easy and quick instead of a fight at the wrong moment (just before a nice fresh brew). If you’re serious about your coffee and want something that combines convenience with top-notch performance, the KF8 is the way to go!

Amazing Fully Automatic Espresso Machine & More
on October 27, 2024
Posted by: Mel A
from Tyler, TX
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Effortless gourmet espresso and all combinations you could possibly imagine! I have enjoyed 1-2 specialty coffees every day for the last month since my purchase. The system works beautifully and walks you through each simple step. I have had no issues or even frustration with this machine. If you are looking for a truly automatic espresso machine with endless options - this is it. I already feel it was worth the cost. The white version is stunning in a white kitchen!
