what our customer say this product:

1. Alfredo Goncalves Verified Buyer – 27 September 2024

   Decided to purchase this style coffee maker after visiting family in Europe. We had made multiple cups of coffee daily and fell in love with the machine. Bought it for our own kitchen during a remodel. The machine is elite. It is simple to use and cleaning and maintaining is quite simple. It walks you through every step of the way. Definitely should keep the manual handy if you’re not an every day handy / tech homeowner. The only thing I wish this coffee machine had was an option to have the water plumbed to eliminate water refill. Like some of the reviews here not everyone skims through the instructions but even coffee bean bags themselves tell you what machine or type of coffee brewing they are meant for. We are a house of 2 coffee drinkers and probably run a cleaning cycle once a month (20 minutes, set it and come back) and we do a deeper clean maybe every 2 -3 mother’s where we take out the actual grinder and soak in water and vinegar. The coffee is only as good as the beans. We splurge a bit during the holidays but have found a regular favorite in a Costco medium roast. This is single handedly my favorite thing in the whole kitchen. I gave four stars because sometimes the milk function for cappuccinos or lattes can be a bit messy when it’s heating/steaming the milk. We only use the milk functions during the holidays when we have guests. I say this to everyone who asks I do not think it’s worth the money if you’re just adding it to your kitchen but if you are remodeling or installing a whole new kitchen it’s worth every penny.

   After a year of light use and regular maintenance, the machine is plugged up and not producing coffee. Bosch is completely unhelpful and we have not been able to find a technician who can work on it in our area. We’ve scoured online for all the tips and tricks we can find. So, I guess it’s just useless? Pretty pricey machine that doesn’t last.

   Unit was used and cleaned thoroughly, however we found coffee inside the container

   Advertised as NEW, but it was used unit with coffee inside the grinder area

   This was a big splurge when we remodeled our kitchen. At first we were dismayed and frustrated by what seemed like a lot of steps to clean the thing. We read a review for cleaning tablets wherein the guy called his machine a ‘fickle mistress’ but worth the effort. We’ve accepted and embraced the efforts and we now the relish the procedure AND the product- amazing coffee on demand.

   Evidently the coffee system was not packed well enough. The machine is cracked.

   I’ve installed this machine for someone.
   I was the first that use it after.
   Long story short I’ve bought this Bosch coffee machine and used for almost one year.
   Every day.
   Excellent. You have to be with a decent iq ( not to
   much ) and able to use the and clean ( when it ask, because is a smart coffee machine)

   After used for one person broke after one year ( thank God I have full 5 years warranty), and after 7 months still no feedback from Bosch. Extremely disappointed to be polite
