Title: Easy to use
Review: This espresso machine is very user friendly. I’ve always been intimidated about espresso machines so I never used one. This machine is quiet, which is a plus since I wake up early to have my coffee and don’t want to wake my kids up. The milk frother is a nice bonus. Easy to clean. Very sleek. The speed in which it makes coffee is unreal! Faster than a coffee shop drive through! Great tasting coffee.

Title: Easy to use
Review: This espresso machine is very user friendly and so easy to use and clean. This machine is quiet, which is a plus bc I know some can be loud. I can make a cup of coffee quietly, since I wake up super early to have my coffee and don’t want to wake my family up. The milk frother is a nice addition and makes my hot drinks taste even better. I love the touchscreen and the different options for my favorite hot beverages. The speed in which it makes coffee is amazing. I love my new espresso machine. It produces great coffee every time.

Title: Really good!!
Review: Loving my new PHILIPS 3300 Series Espresso Machine! The intuitive touch display is super user-friendly, and it offers 5 delicious beverages. The Classic Milk Frother makes the creamiest froth, perfect for my lattes. The SilentBrew technology is a game-changer for early mornings. The 100% ceramic grinder ensures a perfect grind every time, and the AquaClean filter keeps the water pure. the quality and ease of use more than make up for it. Highly recommend for any coffee lover!

Title: Great look & quality
Review: The look of this machine is beautiful in my opinion! It’s very easy to set up & I love the milk frother!Only piece I need to figure out more is using the already pre ground coffee-sometimes it only shoots out hot water and no coffee

Title: Delicious espresso
Review: I've been wanting an espresso maker for so long, since I much prefer it to regular coffee and this machine is very simple and easy to use, and makes delicious espresso for lattes and cappuccinos. Love that I can steam the milk as well. Quality seems really good.

Title: Not real hot
Review: I love the automatic bean grinder and the different settings. But it does not get the espresso real hot even on the hottest setting. So then if you add a little cream, then it cools off real fast. The more I use it the more I like it. But the instructions that came with it were not helpful and the QR code provided was not to a working website. Then when I went to the website, my model of machine is not available to select.

Review: I have used both the Phillips 3300 with automatic frother and the DeLonghi Magnifica Start (which also has an automatic frother). My review may reference those units in comparison.The Phillips 3300 makes a good first impression. It’s attractive and well appointed. Note that this unit, while the description is in French, appears to default to English.The unit feels like a classy addition to your kitchen. The espresso output mechanism has chrome accents which are not real metal, but you can't tell unless you touch it. The mechanism slides up and down to fit different heights of cups.The water reservoir is substantial. The DeLonghi has a lid and measuring lines on the sides, which I prefer, but this still works fine.The unit's screen looks like a colour screen in the photos, but it's not. There are coloured photos of each of the drinks that the unit can make - it does look really nice. The screen really shows fingerprints. You can change the strength and amount of output on the front of the screen with the touch of a button.It's a good idea to keep a waste cup under the spout at all times as it does expel water when you turn it on and shut it off as part of it's self-cleaning activities. This is normal for these larger automatic espresso units. I've also noticed that the drip tray mysteriously fills, so you'll want to dump it regularly.Note that as with most units like this, it expels water on startup and shutdown so have a cup in there all the time to save yourself some mess. Also, I'm not sure why but the drip tray does fill gradually so make sure you're emptying it regularly (the Delonghi does this too).This unit has a manual frother (as opposed to an automatic frother). I've heard that you have a bit more control with a manual frother. I read that it does a better job of converting lactose into sugar, so it's a higher quality foam, and that it's optimal for latte art.I found it very easy to use and create foam (it was my first time creating latte foam manually!). It was much easier than I expected! I can’t wait to try making some latte art.It was also easy to rinse and clean afterward. It's great to be able to create the foam manually - with the other Philips version, the one with the automatic frother - there's no button to just make foam. That makes this a better choice if you want just straight foam, perhaps for hot chocolate for your kiddo.The reservoir on top is easy to fill with coffee beans. Grind settings can be changed with a simple to use dial. I found the Philips 3300 grinder to be quieter than the DeLonghi Magnifica. It's very easy to dump the grinds out of the machine - you just slide out the center section in the front and dump the cup.I did find the instructions a bit hard to get started. They were pretty with photos and on high quality paper, but they lacked detailed steps that someone new to a high-end automated espresso machine would find helpful. A one-pager on how to make your first cup would have been useful.The price point on these types of machines is very high, so you'll have to determine if it's within your budget. If you're already looking for one, this would be a good choice. It certainly does what it is expected to do, and it does it well. I'm very much enjoying it.

Review: I've now had the opportunity to try two of these automatic espresso machines over the last couple of weeks. This time it's the Philips 3326/90.This is a really attractive machine. It definitely looks nice on the counter top. From the product listing I thought that maybe the main display was LCD, but it's actually printed on the machine with LED indicators around each of the images. Still looks really nice and modern.I did encounter an early problem with this unit. There is no manual in the box. There is a light picture card that provides some instruction, through pictures only, or how to do various things like insert and activate the filter, or froth milk. There are no instructions on how to fully prepare the machine or operate it. The picture card had a QR code on its front with two images that suggested there was information and videos to be found if you follow the QR code. In my case, the QR code brought me to the Philips website with a partial product code -- and a code that the Philips website didn't recognize. When I tried to specify EP3226, EP3226/90, or even just 3300 the website came up blank -- no products found. So basically, I had to hope the machine was intuitive enough because I wasn't finding any written help.NOTE: I later found a third-party website with a manual for a different 3300 model (a Latte-To-Go version). Inside the manual it listed the 3326 as one of the possible variations. The manual seemed to match my unit except for the automatic milk dispenser.Loading coffee beans was easy and this unit has a nicely sloped bean container that directs the beans to the grinder. The grinder only has a small plastic mushroom cap above it so there aren't too many places for the beans to get stuck. The beans seemed to travel under the cap easy enough. The bean compartment is quite large in comparison to my other automatic, and I also like the fact that the lid to the bean compartment has a gasket that seals it in and reduces the amount of air exposure (for freshness it claims).The bean compartment also has a knob for adjusting the grind size. The range for grind size seemed pretty wide and it defaults to the middle. I personally felt the coffee was a bit weak at that setting so I felt it needed to go finer.Water container is a good size. The water container is very light and it is removed and replaced very smoothly with guides to help it line up properly. Remove it from the machine and fill it from your tap. The container, like many of these new coffee machines, comes with its own "Aqua Clean" filter. I use filtered water to begin with (that didn't register any hardness at all) so I didn't bother using the included filter.The unit will often dispense water cleaning itself -- a little bit automatically on startup and shutdown -- so that water will collect in its rather large drip tray. I personally keep a little container nearby to collect this water to help keep the machine clean. If you rely on the drip tray it can warn you when it needs emptying.This unit has a steamer with no milk dispenser so it's not *fully* automatic. Select the steam option and after about 10 seconds (the first wait was a bit long) it starts producing steam. I think it will continue to produce steam until you manually stop it. This was my first time using a manual steamer and it was much easier than I thought and the results were pretty good. I can see it takes a certain finesse to get the best results. I was picturing myself splattering milk everywhere but thankfully that didn't happen.Operating the machine is very easy. Choose from one of the drinks -- Espresso, Espresso Lungo, Coffee, Iced Coffee, Hot Water, or the Steam function. Hot Water and Steam are both dispensed from the side arm. Once you've selected a drink, you can choose to set the strength, quantity and temperature -- each having 3 levels. I always used the default middle options.You'll then hear the machine grind the beans and within a few seconds it will start dispensing the espresso. The machine claims to be extra quiet but I found that it's just as loud as my other automatic. I'd say it's still pretty loud but it's only for seconds at a time. If you're trying to make a coffee while the household is sleeping they might hear it.The coffee nozzles glide up and down nicely so you can keep them as close to your cup as possible to minimize splashing.I really enjoyed the end result. I find these automatics produce a slightly more authentic tasting espresso compared to capsule-based machine like Nespresso -- and frankly, they're now almost as easy to operate. I was proud to say that I was able to make a half-decent froth with the steamer too. The froth wasn't as thick compared to the many automatic frothers I've used, though the steamer did a really good job of heating the (fridge cold) milk.There isn't much to clean on this Philips machine. I disconnected the milk steamer and rinsed it out. Although the machine didn't alert me yet, I emptied the grounds container by pulling the front tray forward. The tray completely detaches from the machine and this is how to can empty the grounds compartment and dump and water that has collected in the drop tray. Just like the water container, it's smooth and easy to remove and replace.Overall, this is a well made and well designed machine. I like how it operates and I like its aesthetics. We, however, like milk-based drinks like lattes and cappuccinos. For that reason, I would probably look into one of the models with the automatic milk dispenser. I have that on my other automatic machine and it makes things just that much faster and easier. The steamer on this machine IS easy to use and, frankly, there's also less to clean but I like the consistent results of the automatic dispenser.My biggest complaint is that the Philips websites don't seem to be ready for this product yet. It was frustrating being sent to a website for more information, and the website doesn't know my product. I had lots of questions and no answers at the time. It's possible I didn't take full advantage of the machine. I was probably able to navigate the machine a little easier because of my experience with my other automatic machine.Easy to setup, mostly intuitive to operate, and it produces a decent espresso. Milk based drinks are a bit more work but not much. However, a successful froth depends on knowing what you're doing.

Review: My understanding is that this Philips 3300 (EP3326/90) is a brand new product for the brand. However, for such a premium product, I expected more in terms of step-by-step setup instructions and online support. (I’m referring to the availability of resources, how-tos, and instructional videos, not customer service phone or email support, which I haven’t tried).The instructions that are included with the machine are pitiful. They are just vague pictures/diagrams/drawings - There’s no actual writing on them! The booklet guides the user to go to the Philips website and YouTube channel for more instructions and how-tos; however, when I went onto the provided website and tried to type in the product code, it said that no such product exists! Additionally, at the time I opened this, the YouTube channel had nothing about this particular model. I understand that the product was only recently launched, and I’m sure the company will be adding the online resources in the upcoming weeks/months, but they really should have ensured that there were resources available for any early adopters. This was a huge fail.I’m brand new to the world of automated espresso- and coffee-making machines, so I would have really appreciated detailed step-by-step instructions on how to get started with and use this very expensive appliance. It was a little overwhelming for me.That said, the machine is great! It grinds your coffee beans for you and spits out great-tasting coffee and espresso at home. Of course, it does take a bit of trial-and-error to get the settings just right to your personal preferences, but once you’ve found your magic combination, you’re all set!I like that this machine pretty much does it all for you at the push of a button. (Note: The screen display is not a digital one.) It comes with the AquaClean filter, thank goodness…And the water reservoir is convenient and generous. The machine is a bit noisy when in use, in my opinion, but that might be because I’m not used to using fancy machines like this.This espresso machine is a good-looking machine, and it definitely ups my game when it comes to entertaining guests!

Review: This item arrived within two days via Amazon Prime and was shipped in its retail cardboard box.PROS-This machine is easy to set up; instructions were included but I recommend watching the videos on the product page which greatly facilitate set up.-I have operated a similar De'Longhi espresso machine and the interface on this machine is much easier to use because your options light up and choices are inputted sequentially.-Customization; from the coarseness of the coffee bean grind, to the intensity of the beverage, the height and frothing, you can really personalize all aspects of your beverages.-I am impressed with the overall speed of the machine.-I really like the hot water dispensing option which is surprisingly quick. There is also an iced beverage option which I have not yet tried but am looking forward to with the upcoming summer months just around the corner.-This appliance is on the smaller side for an espresso machine and I was pleasantly surprised by how little countertop space it takes up.-I like the black chrome case which goes well with black appliances as well as stainless steel.CONS-While not as large as some other countertop espresso machines, this one definitely has a footprint. It is probably just a bit too large to want to take it out and store it away between uses.-Definitely on the quieter side but certainly not silent.-This machine requires ongoing maintenance when it comes to cleaning, descaling, changing filters etc. but again the product page offers handy video instructions.-Aquaclean filters will require an ongoing investment but are easy enough to reorder and install.Overall, this is smaller espresso machine that simplifies the brewing process and creates a variety of hot and cold beverages. Easy to set up, easy to use, this product focuses on convenience.

Review: In our house only my wife is a coffee drinker. I never learned to like coffee and because of that my wife has been struggling forever experimenting with various 1 person sized coffee makers, espresso pots, 1 cup drip filters etc. Most of the time she is excited about trying something out, but gives up after a few days because the product turns out to be too much hassle or simply makes bad coffee.As a surprise I decided to get her an automatic espresso/coffee machine. One that would be easy to use, wouldn't require making a whole pot of coffee at once and that had an integrated grinder. After watching a huge number of coffee related reviews and videos on YT (my whole feed is coffee now), I decided on a Philips machine. I was debating the 3200 series just as the 3300 series was released. With it's quieter operation and not much of a price difference, the newer machine is an easy choice.I was planning on getting the LatteGo model with an integrated milk carafe, but I got the chance to test the version with a separate milk frothing wand and I couldn't pass that.We've had this espresso machine for almost a month now and my wife is thrilled with it! She completely eliminated "drive-through" coffee from her daily routine. Somehow we don't seem to be saving any money, as she is now filling our pantry with various coffee beans.The operation of the espresso maker couldn't be simpler. Once you figure out which presets and variations to choose for your favourite drink, you can easily brew it half asleep at 4am.Setup was simple and while there isn't much info available yet about the 3300 series, it's mostly the same as 3200 series. After watching countless videos before getting this machine, it really was very easy. We have quite hard water and scale is an issue, so I was really happy that a water filter is included in the package.There are button presets for an espresso, lungo, coffee and iced coffee. Any other drink can be made using these as a base. I'm not sure what is the difference in brewing between coffee and lungo programs, but my wife's favourite one is the lungo. Espresso in her opinion is not comparable to a fancy café one, but overall the quality easily beats anything she was getting on her way to work.The frother is very easy to use, and easy to clean. There is a separate button for steam, so it's very easy to make fluffy milk for the kids or for a fancy chai latte. We actually use it a lot, and I'm happy that we got this classic version.Overall, we couldn't be happier with this machine. Doesn't really take much space on the counter, makes good coffee and even I can make my wife coffee, exactly how she likes it.
