Just getting started

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far it’s going well. I would have liked nicer foamed milk, I haven’t figured out optimal settings yet, but it’s better than my old nespresso machine. The coffee doesn’t seem as rich as barista quality but I’m not much of a bean expert. The crema isn’t as heavy as from nespresso. I wish there were more objective YouTube videos on how to optimize various settings or taste comparisons for standard medium roast beans.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great coffee maker - makes excellent espresso and is very easy to use and clean. Milk frothing is very good but not exceptional. In this price range I don’t think you can beat this machine!

Best Espresso Machine!

This was our anniversary gift to ourselves. We've had the Breville Barista Express for about 5 years but wanted something more automatic. We are beyond pleased with our KitchenAid Fully Automatic Espresso Machine KF8. We've tried the lattes, espressos, macchiato, americano and coffee options and each one is so delicious! Love it!

Love it!!

It makes excellent coffee and lattes. It took a little bit getting used to, but have had it a few months and we love it. I’ll never go back to a coffee pot again. We would have given this a five star review but feel like it has excessive water discharge and have to empty out the reservoir all the time.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing feature that work for me
on December 11, 2024

I purchased this a little over a month ago, and it has been great. I’m not an expert in coffee, but I can definitely taste the difference when I have a fresh cup. I researched other brands that offer similar features, and one aspect that really stood out to me was the ability to differentiate between regular dairy milk and plant-based milk.
Additionally, I appreciate the self-cleaning function that activates after making milk-based drinks. It’s quite straightforward, even for someone with no prior experience owning an espresso machine.
Lastly, the dual cup option and the grounds option are fantastic. While brewing two cups at once isn’t a necessity, it’s a nice feature to have. The grounds option is also great if I want to brew a regular cup of coffee, while I can still enjoy espresso drinks whenever I like.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Life's better

Posted by: Expresso Expression
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We decided to splurge a little this holiday and switch from a drip coffee maker to this fully auto espresso machine. Previously we enjoyed Espresso and Macchiato at our local coffee shop. This Kitchenaid KF8 compares pretty well with the drinks we order at the coffee shop. I have absolutely no complaints. The fresh water tank holds enough water for 2 to 3 days of 2 drinks per day. We can swap out the bean hopper to fine-tune our drinks. Adjustable spout is great for our larger coffee mugs. What's not to like! It's my new addiction.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought a month ago. I’m liking the new heating system on the KitchenAid. Like the personal programming with multiple coffee options for each user.
We owned 2 Breville Oracle with twin boilers.
The boiler failed on the first Breville and 2nd Breville the relays contact would stick.
