What reviewers say
Reviewers praised the easy controls, personalisation and quieter operation. Their coffee judgements differed: Ideal Home enjoyed the hot and iced drinks and foam, while TechRadar found the espresso only competent, the foam less smooth and cold brew weak. Ideal Home also noted bulk, fingerprints and restricted clearance for tall glasses.
