Great machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] AMAZING!! Not going to lie it took me a while to really figure out how to use it but now I use it daily. Coffee flavor is delicious and the cleaning process is so easy. There's so many different drinks you can make with this.

No more wasting money on mediocre coffee
on March 24, 2024
Posted by: emilyo269
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When first opening this, it looks overwhelming but after a few short minutes of playing around it’s so user friendly!! There are so many drink options and they are all customizable! You can become your own barista, find your perfect coffee, save it to your profile and get the exact same results every time (unlike coffee shops)! The dairy function is great and it has a quick self cleaning mode after using it so it doesn’t get nasty inside the machine! This espresso machine is absolutely amazing! I will save so much money not going to mediocre coffee shops!

At home barista!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine makes me feel like I own my personal coffee shop. It is an absolute beauty and I’ve never had anything like it before. First off, it’s a touch screen and allows you to choose what kind of coffee you’d like. Once you find your favorite, you are able to customize it to your liking and then add it to your personal profile. Insane.
Some things to keep in mind are the size of the machine. It does take up a lot of counter space and needs extra space around it so you can access the side door for the coffee grinder, the water filter on the other side, and the top where the coffee goes. Since it’s such a big machine, the cleaning process may take a little longer but it is totally worth it.
Overall, I’m obsessed with it and love the coffee aroma that lingers after I make my coffee. I love that it came with a booklet full of drink ideas to recreate. P.S. if you are an espresso martini type of gal, this machine will become your new bff.

Quality coffee drinks at home!
on March 16, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from KitchenAid and Influenster in exchange for my review.
I am having so much fun using this espresso machine! There’s so many features and I love how customizable the drinks are. I’ve been playing around with the settings to find the perfect ratios and I love that you can save drink settings to your profile.

When it comes to quality, so far this does a great job of making tasty coffee drinks. It grinds the beans well and I love being able to make milk based drinks. The separate milk container is nice because I can fill it up, toss it in the fridge, and pull it out to use it as needed.
In terms of looks, this machine packs a lot all into a nice, sleek looking cube. The nozzle height is adjustable, but I do wish it went even higher because I still have some mugs that won’t fit. For noise, it’s not silent, but it also doesn’t make nearly as much noise as I was expecting.
This machine also does a fantastic job at staying clean. It rinses itself on start up and shut down and even runs water through the milk attachment to clean that too! This leads me to a minor annoyance: it uses quite a bit of water. However, I’m fine with it if it means less cleaning and maintenance in the long run.
Anyway, to sum it all up, even with the two tiny gripes, I love using this machine! I am enjoying making drinks with this machine, so far everything works great, and I love having fancy coffee drinks at home!

All in one, but many parts to clean
on March 31, 2024
Posted by: sarahk437
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free from Kitchenaid and Influenster in exchange for my honest review. At first I was really excited to get this machine as it has everything you need to make any type of coffee or espresso drink (latte, cappuccino, etc) and froth your milk. I especially liked that this KF8 model offers the option to select either dairy milk or plant based milk, since I typically only drink almond milk. It brews very quickly, and when brewing the grounds its fairly quiet. Although I’ve only made coffee using grounds, you can put whole beans and it will grind them. However I don’t like that there are a lot of parts to clean when you are done, every time (drip tray, catch for the coffee grounds, milk container etc). Also today when I used it I figured out how to take out the internal contraption that holds the fresh grounds to clean, and there’s no prompt for that so I imagine that could get pretty gross. I had been having an issue where it was brewing water rather than grinds and I think it’s because this hadn’t been cleaned. I also don’t like that it rinses itself when you turn it on and after making a drink so you have to be aware of it. So overall, it’s a multi-functional device, but for the casual coffee drinker like me it’s a lot. It also has a big footprint, and is heavy, so not ideal for a small kitchen. This would be ideal for a household where there are many coffee drinkers who all have specific orders.

Good variety ☕️
on March 16, 2024
Posted by: gabbyh89
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked the variety of drinks the machine is able to make and how customizable it is. This machine is perfect for a multi person household. The set up was a little intimidating at first, but once you turn it on the touchscreen helps you through it. The machine was bigger than I expected and the cleaning process seems a little cumbersome.

Great replacement for Jura

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought to replace a Jura that failed after 2 years. Couldn’t be happier. Great americanos and expresso drinks.
