Great coffee
on June 8, 2025
Posted by: Mike11.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Makes fantastic coffee and we love it! I just wish the draining tray was bigger as you need to empty the tray after about 2-3 cups of coffee. Ideally you would keep the machine at your home near a sink to help with the ease of emptying the tray.
I would recommend this to a friend!

KF 8 Amazing
on May 11, 2025

from Massapequa NY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had or returned several coffee/espresso makers over many months and years before purchasing the KitchenAidKF8. It is simply the best machine you can possibly buy. Specifically, it makes great coffee, Preso drinks, and the other specialty drinks along with making excellent froth milk. The most important thing as well to consider is that this machine is super easy to clean and the brew group can come out periodically for a thorough cleaning unlike other machines available on the market.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Really great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it! Had it about a month. Haven’t explored all the options (one can only drink so much coffee per day), but looking forward to exploring the choices. One of the first drinks I made for my wife, an espresso martini, was a huge hit!

Disappointing Frother
on April 26, 2025
Posted by: This Friend
from Olympia WA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The KF8 was bought as an addition to the De’Longhi Eletta we have to end the debate over decaf coffee or regular coffee. The Eletta always produces perfect milk drinks with a domed froth top. The KF8, however , falls flat with a thin bubbled layer on top of the milk. The menu design on the touch screen is impressive. I just wish Kitchen Aid could give us more froth.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Excellent espresso! Annoying frothing
on April 18, 2025
Posted by: CoFFEEEEEE
from Hopkinsville, KY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall it makes a nice espresso, it’s quiet and clean, but the milk frothing leaves a lot to be desired and I would not pay the high price for what you get— A room temp latte that needs to be microwaved. However I cannot go back to my pod system because I now realize that tastes like garbage so I’m making the best of heating my milk myself.
Pros: excellent espresso, brews quietly, cleans itself, beautiful display
Cons: does not get milk drinks hot enough (120-140F)- barely warm and cools off quickly, it takes a lot of steps to clean the milk hose (wish it was just a traditional frothing wand which is easier to clean), you can only do 6.3oz of milk frothing max however the actual amount of milk it dispenses is about 4 oz of milk so it only makes small lattes.
