Review: Coffee? Black no sugar, thanks. - We used to have a Siemens bean to cup coffee machine that was good until it started putting water all over our kitchen worktop rather than in a mug, which was slightly inconvenient. When Siemens asked for £400 to fix the machine we declined their service and used a French Press instead. After owning a machine for several years the press was completely unsatisfactory so when we saw the LatteGo significantly reduced on a Black Friday sale we bought one. That is my key takeaway here. I would not pay full price for the machine knowing it is unlikely to last more than the five years our Siemens machine lasted, but it was well worth the £440 I think I paid for it. Latte's, Cafe Crema, Cappuccinos, Flat whites and pretty much any other type of coffee are all made superbly well. Very easy to program and use, very quick at making a really good coffee. The only downside is the rather flimsy and precarious milk froth dispenser. Other than that, top product. Update! After owning the coffee machine for a few months the milk frother makes sense. With our old Siemens unit the milk was dispensed through a complicated nozzle that was also where the coffee came out. This meant the machine needed regular cleaning. The Philips machine is far simpler, and so is the care routine. Keeping it clean is simple, but more importantly so is putting it back together.
Review: An excellent coffee machine, perfect no matter what time of day it is - The selection of coffee types you can choose and for the ones you can create yourself, it's an amazing coffee machine. It's fantastic and we'd highly recommend this machine to all, in fact one of our friends has already purchased one. So easy to use, including programming your own types of coffee. We've had espresso, flat white, latte, americano, etc and they are perfect. We have set the grind level at 12, as we love strong coffee, with no issues. Putting an extra shot gives you a wake up call you need on a morning. Cleaning is simple, as is taking it apart. Yes it is slightly noisy, but that is understandable, it's grinding coffee beans and heating milk. We use full fat milk and coffee beans that have a rating of 9 and above. The temperature is just what you need and the milk frothing is fantastic. Great water capacity, so you can get at least 8 cups of a latte or if you just have espresso sizes, then it would last you all day for 2 people. Excellent value for money and it looks great in any kitchen. The only thing I have, is that inside the box there was not a tube of grease. It states that one is supplied, but there is nothing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love it, but
*by M***A on 29 November 2025*

After having this machine for a week, I can wholeheartedly recommend it. It is a bit loud but I keep mine in the cupboard. We got cafe Nero beans to try it with and the coffee really tastes and looks like from a coffee shop! Love it! I would recommend getting some cheap beans to set the grinder right, because even tho the producer says the medium setting is good enough, we did adjust it slightly, and you should only do it while the machine is grinding. We binned 10 first coffees before we set it up properly, but that's was our choice. Also, the first coffee machine had to be sent back as it was leaking inside. Now, the user manual does not require checking the inside brewing compartment, it's not in the set up, and the YouTube video that we watched before we order it, said there's no need to touch anything BUT the part was not put inside properly. After checking the part with Amazon technician we wiggle a bit more with it and the leak has stopped. The next machine we got we knew we needed to take the compartment out and put it in again with a click sound to avoid the same thing happening. So if your waste bin is full of water, I would just take the brewing part out and put it in again properly. Do a few coffees to give the machine time to catch up to new adjustments before you give up. I think it's absolutely worth the effort as it's great quality coffee machine, easy to clean, that makes great selection of coffees.
