As for the downsides, I can say it works a bit noisily, but overall, I am very happy with it.
For coffee beans, Philips recommends a light to medium roast. Look for beans with no oily shine. I signed up for a subscription for the Lavazza Super Crema on Amazon and they are so wonderful together. I wish I could retire early and sit and drink this coffee made by this machine all day. Alas, I have a good 15-20 more years. But waking up to this good coffee/machine combo every morning sure makes the days a little happier.
The good:
- quieter
- faster startup
- smaller footprint
- large non leaky reservoir
The bad
- panerello doesn’t have many degrees of freedom
- wand is harder to clean
- steam is harder to modulate (miss the dial on the side a LOT)
- still struggling to figure out grind and get solid pucks
VERY affordable for good coffee, wait for sales, prime day was amazing for this. Worth the wait. Unfortunately my saeco will be donated to someone willing to deal with all the upkeep now
Update after 2 months of continuous use: working great! Coffee doesn’t always seem as “strong” so it’s nice to add a shot or two to a “coffee” pull. I’ve gotten the hang of the steam wand and that’s a little better than the beginning, pucks also firmed up after a couple weeks of use. Overall very happy with this purchase.
Love our machine.
Not for the espresso snob that needs to spend extra money to make the drink taste good.
I've only had to do some minor repairs and I have kept up with the recommended maintenance.
About two years in the hopper feed tube broke off inside the machine, but I was able to easily get replacement parts.
Still going after four years.
This morning I received this machine. It is easy to install. I could not wait to try a cup of Latte. Although I used the same ground coffee and milk which I bought from Costco, it produced a diferrent Latte. It tasted so yummy! Just as good as those from the a barista shops! Now I can enjoy high quality Lattes everyday. I am so glad I bought this machine.
So far we've tried the espresso, cappuccino, latte and obviously plain ole coffee and we love how all of them turned out. There seems to be much more flavor in there. We are using some beans we got in Savannah just for this little guy and the taste is much more intense than the Starbucks ground we use to buy at Wally World.
Another really useful feature is the milk frother. Add about half an inch of half&half or regular milk to your empty mug, press the steam button and keep it under the frother spout until you're happy with what you see. Then add a few shots of espresso and you've got your cappuccino. Replace the espresso with coffee and you get a latte. This is awesome! You can even teach it how much to fill your favorite mug if it's bigger or smaller than the regular sizes this fills.
I found these very useful to get used to playing with the espresso machine.
Installation video and how to use + Cleaning the thing, which is very easy to do for such a complicated machine can be found with an easy search online. There's also the instruction manual inside somewhere, I did not use it.
There's a lot more to talk about with this little guy but in my opinion the best thing about it is the amount of in depth personalization it allows, starting with the coffee aroma strength, size and ending with how big or small you want your coffee grounds to be. It will be almost impossible to not find the right setting for everyone.
I hope it will last a long time. It does use a fair amount of plastic for most of its bits but they seem to be well built. I don't think it's made for industrial use but it should survive a few good years in a regular household as long as you take good care of it. I did appreciate the build quality, everything seems to be very nicely polished and assembled.
Overall we absolutely love this and will definitely recommend it to our friends&family. Do yourself a favor and watch the manufacturer's videos online so you won't have any issues setting it up.
