[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After a small learning curve, you’ll appreciate having this machine at home, it will deliver amazing coffee every time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is easy to operate, and has some adjustments you can easily make to customize your brew. I typically use the "coffee", "latte", and "hot water" options, and am happy with those. The bypass doser -- which I had thought I would use a lot -- is ok but I find that after rinsing the brew group weekly as instructed, this feature won't work until I've greased the brew group again (which is only supposed to be needed every couple of months). The machine tells you when you need to add water or empty the puck container, but not when you need to add beans. (The beans are quite visible, but sometimes at 5am I forget to check!) I do wish it could turn it on via a timer/schedule -- it takes about 90 sec to fire up and be ready to make coffee. This is my first espresso machine, and I am by no means a coffee gourmet, so YMMV.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish I would have pulled the trigger earlier on this product. I can’t believe I waited so long to buy it. I did a lot of research before buying and testing. I am beyond satisfied with my coffee maker. Wish it was portable so I could take it with me everywhere
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] [Employee of philipsglobal] Fresh and delicious cup every time. Easy to use, love the options so everyone can have exactly what they like, how they like.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is easy to use and the taste of fresh ground coffee can’t be beat. My daughter uses this everyday to make her iced coffee which saves on her having to buy it. An investment that I don’t regret.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do not like to write reviews. But for this one i have to. Unfortunately after the first 2 being good machines, with the 2nd one still 100% and the first one ok, other than the frother not working anymore, the next 3 were bad and were all returned for lukewarm espresso, etc., not enough volume and unacceptable frothing capacity. I tried but the quality has gotten to be unacceptable.
