Customers say
Customers find the espresso machine produces barista-quality coffee and is extremely easy to set up and maintain. The machine cleans itself every time it starts or shuts down, and customers appreciate the ability to customize each drink. The functionality and value for money receive mixed reviews – while some say it works well and is worth the money, others report it stops working within three months and consider it expensive. The design and brew time also get mixed feedback, with some praising the beautiful design while others criticize it, and while many find it brews quickly, some report issues with insufficient coffee grinding.

Absolutely love this coffee machine!!!
6 Month Edit: Still going strong! I love this thing. I can’t remember the last time I bought a latte from a store (except maybe during travel). It’s definitely going to pay for itself in the next couple months. This thing sparks so much joy in my life! My only small complaint is that the milk froth option only goes up to making a 12 oz latte. The carafe holds enough to make a 16 oz, but you have to run 2 separate milk froths to get there. It’s a very small thing but for the future it would be nice. Also for some reason it doesn’t “remember” that I usually do 2 espresso shots, so I have to select that each time. Basically my biggest complaints are software complaints ha. The machine itself works so well. It is easy to clean, easy to maintain, and our water is fairly hard but I haven’t had to change the water filter yet even though I use it everyday.Still great! I’ll try to update at a year ðOriginal Review:I have spent actual years of my life trying to find the cheapest way to make espresso lattes at home. I started simple with an aeropress, a moka pot, upgraded to a cheap espresso maker, bought a grinder, etc, etc. And yet I still found myself buying coffee at coffee shops. I personally didn’t have the patience to find the exact right grind and the exact right tamp to get a store quality espresso.I finally caved and bought this 4300 series latte maker. This thing is going to save me so much money over the next year. I’ve only had it about a week but I’ve already used it every day and it’s perfect.It’s SO easy to use. Set up is a breeze. It basically works right out of the box. It comes with a water filter which was nice. Once you get the beans in there, it takes 2-5 shots to “load” the mechanisms and actually put out a shot of espresso and not just water. I did need to adjust the grind to a finer grind (setting 3) to get a good crema. If you adjust it after beans are in, make sure you do it WHILE the grinder is working (you’ll have to brew a shot to do this) and be ready to work quickly. I guess if you do it while it’s off and there are beans in there you can damage the grinder. I would make sure to read the instructions all the way through, and get familiar with the machine. Once you do, the whole process is a breeze.Once you have your settings dialed in, making a latte is as easy as put a cup underneath, press a button, and go. It takes approximately 1-2 min for a latte. It grinds beans fresh for every shot. If you set everything to the largest settings, you get about a 12 oz latte.Cleaning and maintinence is super easy. The machine steps you through most of it. It tells you the steps to take to install the water filter, tells you when to empty the waste grounds contatiner, gives you multiple cleaning settings. I rinse out the lattego container twice and it takes less than a minute. I feel like this machine is so well thought out and it feels pretty well put together.Overall I have very little to complain about. Once I dialed in my settings, I found the coffee I get out is as yummy as any latte from a coffee shop. My biggest complaints are:- You only get about a 12 oz coffee automatically, if you want a 16 oz or 20 oz, you’ll have to do multiple milk froths and espresso runs- The machine is rather loud. It’s not a deal breaker for me by any means, but in the morning it can be a little jarring and it always spooks our cats.- Adjusting the grind setting is a bit of a hastle. You have to do it while the machine is running and while it does that , the grind setter wants to move in the opposite direction of which direction you’re trying to go so you have to have a pretty decent grip on it. Luckily you should only really have to do this once.- The latteGo carafe leaves about a cm of milk on the bottom even if you’ve put the right amount in. If you dump and clean it out every time, you’d end up wasting a decent amount of milk.-I’ve heard people have a hard time using the pre-ground coffee slot and I haven’t tried it. But it does get pretty steamy each time it runs which I imagine would make it rather hard to clean.Some tips and tricks I’ve learned since using this machine:- This thing likes to rinse itself out a lot. (Which is good) but it’s a little more hastle to clean out the water catcher on the bottom. I just keep an old coffee cup nearby and let it rinse into that and dump it out every time. It’s a lot less cumbersome to clean out.- If you have leftover milk in the latteGo, I do 2-3 automatic rinses to get milk out of the milk tube and then put the whole container in the fridge for the next day. It cleans out the frothing mechanism enough that milk doesn’t go bad in there and you don’t have to waste the little bit of milk in there.- A lot of regular espresso beans might be too oily for super-automatic espresso machines. Apparently that oil will eventually gunk up the grinder, so it’s recommended to buy medium roast beans. You can google some beans that are safe for the machine and find the best ones for you. I like the lavazza brand.- If you’re like me and enjoy a flavored latte, invest in some syrups with the pumps. It really really completes the whole “barista at home” thing I was going for. Even better if you can get a tiered holder for all of them!- If you want to be a little extra, get yourself some disposable coffee cups with lids. They’re definitely worse for the environment but if you’re drinking everyday it can get a little cumbersome making sure you always have a clean travel cup. Or just invest in a bunch of dishwasher safe travel cups!This thing is pricey for sure. But I’ve definitely spent a long time and a lot of money before this to try to replicate what it can do and it is so worth just spending the money on it. It sparks a little bit of joy for me every time I use it and gives me the quality coffee I want everytime. It is easy to use and maintain. It also makes making multiple lattes a breeze if you are a multi-cup household. As long as it doesn’t die within a year- it’ll be so so worth it!

Drink a whole lotta lattes? You’ll want this!
Had the PHILIPS 4300 LatteGo for a little over week now. First impression: I love this thing! I have coffee every day. Usually an Americano or Latte. In addition to the coffee beans in the hopper, I also love the flexibility of the ground coffee bypass chute. I keep some decaf beans on hand and grind as needed and just scoop it in and brew a drink when wanted.I did a ton of research and almost bought another brand a few times while trying to decide. Ultimately, this PHILIPS machine had the right features for me. And cleaning it is pretty simple (very important for daily use).It’s certainly an investment, but I drink coffee every day and my wife and I love being able to easily add frothed milk to chai or hot chocolate as well.Initial Set-up:It was a breeze. You’re prompted through each step on the screen. You do a water hardness test with a paper strip held under your faucet a few seconds and then set that based on the result. You install the water filter. The machine calibrates and rinses itself out. Brew some initially weak espresso (yeah, I know – just dump it). That’s about it. Oh, on recommendation I also bumped the temperature up to high.How’s the coffee and features?While you do have the pre-programmed buttons for all the usual drinks from Coffee and Espresso to Lattes and Cappuccinos (and they all work great), you really could dial in your preferences and make almost any style espresso drink and even do the shots and froth separately – so keep that in mind if you’re real particular.I was warned (and please keep in mind) that the system calibrates and starts to make better coffee over time. For me, it’s been over a week and leaving the grind setting at the factory default (as recommended at first), I’m just now starting to get the espresso pucks instead of a more watery coffee ground consistency in the grounds container. So, I believe patience is key here – leave the grind setting alone for a bit (I know, I know). Maybe stick to the milk-based drinks that can be more forgiving until things start balancing out.I can honestly say things have improved quickly and a regular espresso shot is pretty good now. I stuck with Lavazza Super Crema Espresso Whole Bean Coffee – since it’s widely recommended for superautomatic espresso machines (no dark roast, oily beans whatsoever – unless you want to make the machine an expensive paper weight). I’ll venture out and try other brands and types of coffee soon, but just went with what I knew would work OK to get started.Maintenance and cleaning:Daily:Empty drip tray of water as needed (a red indicator button will pop up when it’s time to empty). I recommend keeping a cup under the spout between use to catch any water flushed during rinse cycles. The machine flushes itself once when turned on and when turned off. There’s also a rinse cycle you manually run after making a milk-based drink to clear the LatteGo container (you just push a button and it does the work). You’ll also be prompted to empty the coffee grounds container as that fills up – maybe every few days depending on use. Oh, and obviously wash the LatteGo container after use or refrigerate with remaining milk (I love that this milk system has no tubes to clean).Weekly:Take the brew group out and rinse well under warm water to clear any coffee grounds, then let air dry completely (no soap, no towels – there’s water proof grease on parts that needs to stay on and fibers can be left behind). Wipe the inside compartment with a damp cloth. The PHILIPS website and YouTube videos are your friend for understanding the cleaning process – just search on the model number. Also read the short manual – understand the machine and taking care of it is pretty darn easy.Semi-Monthly:The machine will tell you when it’s time to descale every few months – which is really just running a solution through the unit. Occasionally you’ll also put some food grade lubricant on the moving parts of the brew group. Also the water filter will need periodic replacing to keep the water tasting good and the system running smooth – again, the machine will let you know when it’s time.Overall, I’m super-happy with this machine. Having lot’s of fun and love the flexibility in the drinks it makes. It’ll pay for itself very quickly with no over-priced coffee shop trips. So far so good. Cheers!

Bland espresso! Soggy pucks. Doesnât grind enough beans for a flavorful shot imo
Watery espresso shots. No matter the combination of different grind size or less water amount still pulled a nasty shot. Pucks were supper soggy and thin. I purchased this machine to replace a Saeco odea giro go that Iâve had for over 10 years. This item doesnât even come close to the way the Odea pulls a shot. From the first time I used it excellent pulls no need to âlearnâ or adjust itself. No watery pucks and thick pucks in comparison to this new machine. Made an iced latte like I usually do on my old machine, NO flavor what so ever. All I tasted was the oat milk and I only use 1/4 cup and 1 tablespoon of sweet cream creamerBLAND!!! Added a second shot no help at all. It actually made it taste bitter. Mind you this is the way Iâve made my lattes for the past 10 years so Iâm not doing anything different other than using this new machine. I tried making a honey nut latte which Iâve made over the past two years exact measurements of honey and peanut butter powder and oat milk like Iâve always used with the old machine and it doesnât even come close! Iâm not gonna lie Bustelos instant espresso tastes 1000 times better than what this machine makes. I really wanted to like the machine but it makes horrible espresso. I ran about 3lbs of coffee through it hoping it would get better. It in fact did not! Donât waste your money! As soon as I saw the quality of the shot I knew the rest of the drinks this machine is capable of making would not be up to my standard. Such a shame,for the amount of money people are willing to invest in an espresso maker it should at the least make a descent shot.

Je suis encore à l’ajustement du café mais cette machine fonctionne très bien. Très silencieuse. J’ai le nouveau modèle 2024 “Silent brew” 4400. Le pavé tactile est sensible et fonctionne très bien. Facile à comprendre. Les étapes s’affichent sur l’écran. Je suis très satisfait à date. Le mousseur à lait fonctionne très bien quoique je dois encore trouver la recette parfaite de café et mousse de lait.Le nettoyage est super facile.La machine chauffe vite. L’eau très chaude, pas de soucis avec ça. Les boissons glacées sont bonnes. J’adore. J’ai acheté ce modèle car le café glacée en raccourcis à l’écran. Pas sur les vieilles version 3400 par exemple. On dit 12 boissons mais en réalité c’est plus 13, si on ajoute le lait emultionné pour le chocolat chaud par exemple. Le café latté est le meilleur jai jamais goûté. Dommage que nous ne pouvons pas changer les icônes dans le menu rapide sur l’écran.Bref, je recommande la 4400 de philips. J’ai essayé la 3400 avant mais j’ai du la retourner. Pour 10$ de plus, j’ai eu le nouveau modèle 2024.Je recommande ce produit surtout si vous aimez les boissons lactées. Parfaites à tout coup.

Iâve been using the Philips Series 4400 LatteGo every day, and itâs been amazing. It makes great coffee and is really easy to use. The milk frother works well and is super convenient.You do need to clean the parts once in a while, but itâs not too hard. Overall, itâs a great machine if you love coffee and want something quick and easy at home.

I purchased this espresso machine in the Fall of 2024, because it was automatic, and I really wanted the convenience. At first it worked great. After about two months, suddenly, regular coffee was coming out like water. I phoned Philips Service, and a very helpful customer service rep walked me through a whole bunch of troubleshooting potential solutions. Nothing worked. They told me I would have to box it up and they would send me a shipping label to send it to a local repair service. Of course I had not kept the original box, so packing it up in a box of the appropriate size was a bit of an issue, but I managed to do it. Unfortunately, this all happened a week before I was scheduled to go to my winter home, but they accommodated that by sending me a new shipping label when I returned in May. I shipped it off, and received it back in less than two weeks. So far so good. Since it was returned, supposedly repaired, I have used it for three weeks. I have maximum 2 cups of coffee a day. This morning, my 2nd cup was again watery. I tried a third cup, same problem. I phoned Customer Service, and I have to box it up and ship it back to be repaired AGAIN. I was not happy that the original problem occurred within a few months of buying the machine, but their service was pretty good. I am very unhappy that after three weeks of using it, the same thing is happening all over again. When I said that if the machine does not work after this new repair, I want a new machine, her comment was, âif the same problem persists, please call us back again and we will be happy to work with youâ. Not exactly a ringing commitment. Just beware- not a reliable coffee machine for the high price.

This is our first super automatic espresso machine and it is so convenient and easy to use. There is an initial break in phase that other people have talked about where at the coffee came out super weak. But even in the instructions it advises that it will take a few cups for the machine to self adjust, which it seems to do. The LatteGo feature is a no brainer as it takes the guess work out of creating milk froth. It’s so simple and easy to use with just a press of a button. Clean up of the LatteGo system is really easy too as you can just use the quick rinse feature to clean out the LatteGo container and then put back the remainder left over milk into the fridge to store using the LatteGo container. If you want to do a deep clean of the LatteGo container it just comes apart and then snaps back together easily. I love the variety of drinks that it can make as well. Having the user profiles does make it easier between my spouse and I as we have different strengths and volumes. Having the digital display is a great feature to have also as it’s very visual and helps you create your brew to your liking while saving it to your profile for next time.If simplicity and ease of use is what you’re looking for this is definitely the unit to get. We debated between the 3200 and the 4300 but ultimately went with he 4300 for the additional brew varieties, user profiles, and digital display. No regrets whatsoever going with he 4300 as there is no guesswork as the digital display tells you the measurements. We’ve had it for over a month now and have no complaints so far.
