Philips Saeco RI9752

Very good purchase. I am very pleased .

good purchase

Very reliable machine. Even if it's not a commercial model, we have this machine at my job for the last 3 years and it brewed more than 8500 coffee up to now, without any failure. I just bought another one for my home last week

Noisy machine. You will wake up everybody in the house if you make yourself a coffee very early... It could be difficult to prime the pump when you receive the machine

Main reason for buying was because the wife didn't like using the manual machine and kept going to the store (SB), or always asking me to make her coffee. Since then, I bet this thing has already paid for itself. I didn't mind the manual process, but...

Agree on comments about the water reservoir, it's a bit small. Also wish you could fill it without removing the whole reservoir thing. My manual machine would let me fill through an access area. Not a big deal.

Makes great coffee, easy to use, easy to clean ... easy cappachino, etc

Refurb unit may take a couple tries to get a new one

The machine is very reasonable priced since it's refurbished. But most importantly it makes both excellent espresso and creamy 'caffee lungo'. I love the standby mode from which it wakes up within a minute or so ready to grind and brew really fresh...

Not really a con but when making full cups of coffee the water reservoir needs frequent refills. But that's because the machine is rather compact and there just is not enough space for a larger capacity reservoir and spent coffee.

Made five cups of decent espresso.

Made only five cups of espresso before terminal failure.
