Phenomenal
on February 11, 2025
Posted by: cherylicious_5138
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such an amazing espresso machine! I used to just have a Keurig and so this was such a step up and a game changer. I used to just do instant coffee but now I can have amazing coffee that tastes like they are brewed at some of the best coffee shops. All from the comfort of my home I was so excited to get this, and I highly recommend!

Effortless espresso
on February 12, 2025
Posted by: kmartens_5282
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you love great espresso without the hassle, the Philips Baristina is a fantastic choice. It grinds, tamps, and brews automatically, delivering rich, consistent shots every time. The easy-clean portafilter keeps things mess-free, and while you’ll need a separate frother for lattes and cappuccinos, this sleek machine makes café-quality coffee effortless.

So excited to work on my espresso game
on February 12, 2025
Posted by: jewliciousrae_2660
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve always wanted an espresso maker. I just never could justify it. I’m so excited for this one because it grinds the beans and then makes the coffee all in the same go. And all in one machine. It’s not a full top of the line, best espresso machine with all the bells and whistles, but it doesn’t claim to be. It is what a convenient easy way to have espresso. I will review more as the time goes on and update on how it’s going. I’ve read other reviews and it sounds more like user error than machine issue but once I know more, I’ll update more.,

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This coffee machine has many new features, I really like the design because you don't have to use many parts and they are easier to clean and the quality feels very good, it will really last a long time, it is not very heavy.

Cannot espresso how much I love this
on February 16, 2025
Posted by: cprowler_5467
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I hadn’t drank coffee since July, but seeing how creamy and airy this espresso came out, I just had to try it. And just like that, I’m hooked again. I wanted to add two videos but couldn’t, so just believe me when I say the automatic switch of the handle is very cool! It’s a snowy day here in New England, but I’m curled up inside with my cute little cup of smooth espresso by the fire. Single serve never tastes right, brewed is always so bitter, and French press is not convenient. This is by far the best at-home coffee I’ve ever had. This machine is quiet, quick and easy to clean since the grounds are a compact little pellet after using. I don’t have to grind my beans, just simply dump them in, put water in the tank and push a button. I don’t even think it needs any cream added to it since it’s creamy on its own (just watch the video for proof). The machine itself is so sleek and modern looking. I typically despise things on my counter but this might actually make my counter look better! 10/10 this was my first “big” item from Influenster and it couldn’t have been better, I’m obsessed!

Best Espresso
on February 16, 2025
Posted by: elizad21_534
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a new favorite espresso a machine. This is the 4th one I’ve tried and by far the best of its kind. The first few brews came out a little diluted, but after using it a few times the espresso is perfect. For a latte or a martini, this is a staple machine!

Great at home substitution
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: christinel264_1893
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I spent the past week using my Philips Baristina espresso machine daily.
Upon opening, I noticed the machine was sleek and lightweight . A nice size to sit out on a counter without being an eyesore. The biggest miss was that there weren’t any directions included. I needed google to find out the proper way to use and clean my new maker. Not a deal breaker, but an inconvenience nonetheless.

As an avid espresso drinker, my expectations were not high for an at home maker. To my surprise, I was impressed. You are able to grind roasted beans to make a fresh cup of espresso right in the machine. You also have the option to intensify the taste to give a more robust flavor. This expresso maker packs a powerful punch all while having the convenience of expresso whenever you want and at a much better price!
All in all, the Philips Barinstina Expresso maker is a great alternative to going out and purchasing your expresso. Naturally, nothing can replace a great coffeehouse expresso but this is a close second. I highly recommend.

do NOT recommend
on February 18, 2025
Posted by: hilarym26_829
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was genuinely enthusiastic about the acquisition of this espresso machine and promptly set it up for use. However, I encountered some challenges with the included “instruction” booklet, which primarily contained warnings rather than practical guidance for operation. After some experimentation, I was able to get it to function, though not without difficulty.
One significant drawback is the excessive noise produced during the brewing process; it is notably louder than expected and generates vibrations strong enough to rattle nearby cabinetry. Additionally, I noticed that the machine leaks from two apertures located at the bottom, which raises concerns about its design. Furthermore, the countertop beneath the appliance becomes exceptionally hot during operation, leading to safety considerations.
Given these issues, I regret to inform you that I cannot recommend this product and will be disposing of it. I am fortunate that this purchase did not incur any financial cost. If it were possible to assign a rating of zero stars, I would not hesitate to do so.
