Amazing
We upgraded from a Phillips 4300 and this machine is a complete game changer and well worth the extra few hundred dollars. The user interface and screen are much nicer and easier to use. The machine also prompts you when to do all maintenance and cleanings, which is super helpful. The brew unit is easy to remove and clean there are way less nooks and crannies to worry about. It also stores way more water in the reservoir, same with the disposed pucks container. Not to mention there was no break-in period, Unlike the Phillips, which took forever to dial-in. The drinks taste amazing and are much hotter than what the Phillips was able to produce. As far as the milk frothing and warming goes, I have no issues. The texture is amazing. I also appreciate how large the milk container is and how easy it is to use. The fact that itâs âseparateâ, unlike the Phillips, doesnât really matter because youâre gonna put the milk container from either device in the fridge anyways. The only difference is there is one extra step in attaching the hose to the KitchenAid. Which I feel is a fair trade-off given how much larger the milk container is and itâs easier to clean. Also, the bean hopper is great because it never jams which Iâve had nothing but issues with the Phillips. Itâs also super easy to remove to replace the beans. I have just enough clearance under my cabinets (18â from countertop to cabinet) to remove the bean hopper. Lastly, itâs way quieter. Iâm running out of good things to say at this point. Iâm no espresso snob by any means but I love this machine.Ohâ¦and the kitchenaid just looks way nicer.

Initial Impression – FANTASTIC!
Pros:1. Great flavored espressos. I had seen reviews that said that this made a “weak-ass” espresso. I completely disagree. My first espresso was made on the 3-bean setting due to reviews and it was super-strong. I had to dial back my subsequent espressos to 2-bean – and this was with Lavazza Dek Decaf.2. Rich, thick crema on the espresso and straight coffee.3. More than hot enough (I had read other reviews saying the temp was lukewarm, I think they must have had a faulty machine).4. Remarkably quiet. No more waking others in the house up with loud grinding in the morning.5. Exceptional build quality.6. Simplified, menu-driven cleaning.7. Large storable milk container. If you eschew carbs like me, use half and half or diluted heavy whipping cream. Big step up from milk.8. Rollers on the bottom allow you to easily pull the machine out toward the front of the counter.9. Swappable bean bins. One for full-strength in the AM and one for in the afternoon (you’ll need to buy the extra bin)10. Creates a solid medium-large puck.11. If you have an RO system that is in good working condition, you can probably skip the filters.12. Four user profiles and a simple user interface.Cons:1. Medium-tall coffee cups only. Not travel mug friendly. You can use a travel mug, but you’ll have to futz with the mug as it fills.2. Expensive for only 20 drink options. Though they are admittedly strong options. The De’Longhi Eletta Explore has lots more options and is probably a better option if variety is a high priority.3. Large. Very large.4. Unlike other premium Super Espresso machines, there is no granular control of the coffee volume output. Single and Double – that’s it.

Drinks are not hot enough
Only concern is the drinks are not hot enough

Obsessed!
I absolutely love this machine! The first few drinks I made were very disappointing and wanted to send it back, but once I got the hang of it and figured out the settings/details of how I liked my drinks, it is life changing! The drinks are perfect! They taste amazing, it is pretty quick as you just push a button and you get your cappuccino (or whatever you prefer) perfectly made. The self cleaning portion is wonderful! It can be a little annoying if you are really in a hurry but it ensures that you will always have mold free drinks and is very convenient. Highly recommend!! It also froths a plant based milks so good too.

Not hot
I had been researching which coffee machine to buy for a while. I ended up purchasing this highly-priced machine, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment. The coffee is never hot, just lukewarm. It doesnât bring any joy at all.

Discolored
Mine was discolored. The espresso is good, but I wouldn’t say any better than the old one I replaced, which was half the price. The color screen and the milk container are nice features.

Set up
The product does use a lot of water. I found the set up very easy to do.
