Review on ☕ Ultimate Espresso Experience: Philips 2200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine with Milk Frother in Sleek Black (EP2220/14) by Mike Robinson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nothing for the true espresso lover!

I was looking for a car to replace my 8 year old Saeco and it kept popping up! It went on sale and I thought I'd give it a try. The taste of the coffee is ok, but if you are an espresso lover the crema gets lousy! And yes, I turn the grinder to its finest setting. The crema is nothing like the photos or videos (note that in the Philips video they cut out the end of the coffee brewing process and replaced it with two fully "stylized" espressos with great crema). I love all the features of the machine and it was a great price at $399 but the foam doesn't!

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Expensive insurance
