Philips 2200 Series EP2220/10 Coffee Maker Fully-auto Espresso Machine 1.8 L

Easy to set up, having done a few bits to start the machine off it was ready to brew within minutes. Only slightly fidly part was the LatteGo milk container, which is unusual for sure, but once that’s set up it’s a real marvel to watch work. Machine is a little loud, but not abnormally loud for what it is, however it may help you wake up wary in the morning. The coffee itself - fantastic. Lots of versatility offered, as you are able to alter coffee and milk amounts for each drink to cater to your tastes. Also love the profile settings, which is useful for my wife and I who take our drinks different. Each profile auto saves the settings for each drink. Maintenance is easy enough. The milk container washes easily under a tap, and emptying the grinds is also very easy ... MoreEasy to set up, having done a few bits to start the machine off it was ready to brew within minutes.

Let’s hope it stands the test of time.

My friends call me a coffee snob. I’ve been drinking coffee for as long as I can remember. I have to say that I am so impressed with this little gem. I went to visit my brother and he had a very expensive machine. I LOVED the coffee but wasn’t going to spend $2k for the machine. I started researching and this kept coming up. Reviews were good and so I waited until Prime day to buy. So glad I did. This is literally the best purchase I have made in a while. I will never spend $7 on a cup of coffee again. I’ve tried several modes but my go to for now is a cup of strong coffee, 2 espresso shots, frothed oat milk and some sugar free caramel topping. So good. So, if you are thinking about buying this…don’t think. Just do it.

We had an Saeco Intellia for over about 12 years, which we loved, before it started being less reliable, throwing errors, wasting ground coffee, and just weaker coffee overall. I didn't want to spend another $800 or so on another superautomatic and decided to get this after watching/reading several reviews. It's only my wife and I who use this in the house. She prefers her morning double strength americano while I like a morning shot of espresso so we don't need a lot of the extra features of a more expensive superautomatic. We've been using the Carina for a month now and I gotta say this machine is excellent for what it cost. The espressed coffee is way better than what the Intellia ever made.. stronger and more robust. The creme is about the same tho and still not ... MoreWe had an Saeco Intellia for over about 12 years, which we loved, before it started being less reliable, throwing errors, wasting ground coffee, and just weaker coffee overall.

We've been using the Carina for a month now and I gotta say this machine is excellent for what it cost. The espressed coffee is way better than what the Intellia ever made.. stronger and more robust. The creme is about the same tho and still not nearly as much as I used to get with a manual espresso I had a long time ago (I think it was a cheap $80 delonghi but an excellent espresso maker nonetheless and WAY WAY WAY better than a Kureg or Nespresso which we've had before as well). The ground pucks are tighter too meaning there's more coffee grounds being packed in. What I also love about the Carina is that if you run out of water during the brew, it will wait until you refill the reservoir and let you continue the brew instead of dumping the grounds and forcing you to start over again like the Intellia did. Other things I like about the Carinia.. The waste ground collection is within the waste liquid reservoir and the grounds fill up a bit faster than the liquid.. which means it kinda forces us to dump both the grounds and the liquid whenever the grounds collection is filled up. This prevents the liquid from overfilling and spilling out which used to happen quite a lot with the Intellia that had the ground collection separate from the liquid. I am using the AquaClean filter for the moment to measure how effective it will be and the maintenance cost of replacing them every so often. We'll see if I want to keep using them or go back to the manual decalcification process. Anyways.. the Carina makes great coffee and is a bit easier to clean. Highly recommend it. Also, to anyone using a Kureg or Nespresso machines and looking to upgrade.. I strongly recommend getting a superautomatic.. they make a MUCH better cup of coffee and the Carina is probably the best one you'll find at this price range and not to mention you'll be saving money in the long run and create less waste for the landfill.

The milk frother works like a charm, giving my cappuccinos that perfect creamy finish. Speaking of coffee, the quality is top-notch. The Series 2200 uses ceramic grinders to ensure a consistent grind size, which translates into a rich and aromatic coffee every time. The aroma extraction system is impressive, as it evenly moistens the coffee grounds for that delightful scent. Maintenance is a breeze too. The machine alerts you when it's time for a cleanup, and the removable parts make it super easy to keep everything spick and span. All in all, the Philips Series 2200 has made my coffee experience a delightful journey. If you're a coffee enthusiast like me, you'll appreciate the quality and ease of use this machine brings to your daily cup. It's a must-have for any coffee lover out there. Cheers to perfect mornings! ☕️✨"

Coffee to make my life easy

Not a real shot of espresso, sorry to say. The shots are more like a cup of strong coffee than a good shot of espresso. the crema” is telling, and the shots are watery. I tried a few different brands of beans, adjusted the grinder, cleaned the “brew group” which was also challenging…… I love that this machine was affordable compared to other machines in this category. I did get what I paid for. Steamer attachment also works well, only down side is you can’t steam your milk wile brewing your coffee. (I didn’t think of that before purchasing)In conclusion I was determined to find an alternative to Nesspresso. This was my choice after a little shopping online, the top machines available were twice the price, I also chose this machine because of the simplicity of ... MoreNot a real shot of espresso, sorry to say.

This was my choice after a little shopping online, the top machines available were twice the price, I also chose this machine because of the simplicity of ordering on Amazon. I would NOT recommend this machine only because it’s such a personal choice for making a simple shot, compared to Nesspresso. The convenience of just adding beans and water to this machine is what I really like….. could this machine be better…? I’d say it could make a better shot of espresso. I wouldn’t recommend this to a friend But I’d share my experience and suggest to spend the extra money and go for a much higher end machine, the shots of espresso would be better

Disappointed time and again

We were told by promoter not to use local beans due to the oil in the beans. Only to be told by the Philips customer care to use light roast beans. Was told that I would have to clean often if using medium or dark roast. Felt cheated by the promoter. Shouldn’t have bought it without a demonstration. I switched to using grounded coffee for a stronger taste and some fresh coffee ground was in the waste. Also there was fault with the indicator. Very disappointed with the purchase! Customer service not helpful! Sent in for repair and I had to call periodically to check the status of repair. Was told on the third call to Philips that machine was ready for collection. I opted for delivery and was disappointed to receive my new machine with scratches all over! Also no ... MoreWe were told by promoter not to use local beans due to the oil in the beans.

Also no explanation over what was the issue with machine. To think I started using the coffee machine on 01-Oct-2022 and have to send in for repair on 01-Dec-2022. And returned with such scratches.

Hot, great coffee with amazing frother

I debated between this machine and the lattego, and decided I didn't want to replace the lattego part and wanted simple and basic but with the omfph;) my bestie has the lattego and I honestly see no difference and I love creating coffee art so having the frother separate and for coca and tea use also is amazing. Things I love about this machine!1. Hot coffee2. Premade or beans3. Frother min or max time you want, up to you, I go around 35 sec.4. All in one area for pucks ( coffee) and extra water to be dumped at once.5. Looks classic and easy to operate.6. Black Friday + 15% off got for such a great price!7. When in doubt, try it out!! Love it and hope it lasts a very long time, I have had it since Nov:)

The “spiritual successor” of the saeco Vienna

I’ve been eyeing these for a long time as the saeco I have has needed more parts replaced and had unreliable water output and leaking water tank. This is a reasonable replacement I’ve really enjoyed getting to learn more about it and used it now 10+ times a day for the past month or so (3 coffee drinkers)The good:- quieter- faster startup- smaller footprint- large non leaky reservoirThe 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 pucksVERY 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 ... MoreI’ve been eyeing these for a long time as the saeco I have has needed more parts replaced and had unreliable water output and leaking water tank.

Well-made, all-in-one espresso machine!

I've owned a few espresso machines over the years, but I was always frustrated by the daily process of packing the grounds, emptying the grounds, cleaning the filter, filling the water, etc. Plus, I still had to keep out my coffee maker for brewing regular coffee. The Philips 2200 espresso machine solves pretty much all of these issues! With the push of a button (or a few buttons), your coffee is ground fresh, brewed and grounds emptied. If you want to make an espresso shot (or two), it's the same process. Push a button and you're done!It's really easy to empty the used grounds and fill the water container because they are all front facing so you never have to turn the machine around or pull it out from under the counter. I love that!The buttons and sequence of ... MoreI've owned a few espresso machines over the years, but I was always frustrated by the daily process of packing the grounds, emptying the grounds, cleaning the filter, filling the water, etc. Plus, I still had to keep out my coffee maker for brewing regular coffee.

I love that!The buttons and sequence of pushing buttons can take a bit of getting used to and is not really all that intuitive -- especially if you want to switch from fresh ground coffee beans to using your own ground coffee. But it's not super complicated either. You just have to read the instruction book or watch some of the Philips videos.Overall, I'm very impressed and happy with this espresso/coffee maker.
