KitchenAid KF7 täysautomaattinen espressokone, vihreä

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using this espresso machine for several days, it quickly proved to be a high-quality and well-designed product. One of its best features is how quiet it is (which is always appreciated especially in the morning). The overall build feels solid and premium, and the results in the cup are very satisfying: good coffee, nice milk foam, and an efficient cleaning system. The option to use either ground coffee or coffee beans is also a real advantage.

The machine offers a wide choice of drinks and a high level of customization: it's easy to adapt each coffee to your personal taste.

There are however a couple of limitations. When preparing two coffee-based drinks, the machine works in sequence rather than at the same time, without a pause to change cups. And for cappuccino lovers—especially Italian ones—the maximum milk quantity (140 ml) feels a bit limited.

Overall, this is an excellent espresso machine with a beautiful design and a strong and robust feel. Despite a few small drawbacks, it delivers quality, consistency, and style, and it will definitely satisfy demanding coffee fans. Highly recommended!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve tried many fully automatic coffee machines and this is honestly the best one so far. This machines is built well and makes amazing coffee. It’s very easy to clean and gives you step by step instruction for basically anything you can do with this machine. The machine is quite big so keep that in mind when buying this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The coffee machine is simple and intuitive to use. It's very easy to clean. You can prepare various types of coffee and adjust the strength, temperature, and size. It grinds the beans well and doesn't burn them. The touchscreen works flawlessly. The build quality is excellent, and the coffee is delicious. It heats up quickly, and you can create your own profiles. There's nothing to complain about, but it could be cheaper.

As usual, I’ll start with build quality – it is superb. Fit and finish of all elements, quality are top-notch. Keeping the stainless steel clean is not so easy but come on – just look at it – it is simply beautiful (and heavy).

Let’s move on to what might seem like small advantages but turn out to be huge pros. First – the removable bean hopper (easier to fill when you have limited space) – it’s a game changer together with the wheels on the back (easier to move for cleaning).

The touch screen is responsive (but could be bigger), maintenance is easy, interface is user friendly. There are also four user profiles available. This thing is QUIET (if you have kids, you know how important that is).

It’s time for the crème de la crème – coffee. First - you need to play with the settings to achieve the taste you like; you can find some proposals on coffee enthusiasts’ websites. I prefer the finest grinder setting, max temperature, max strength. Using these settings you get great flavor and thick crema. My wife drinks milk-based coffee and she recommends KF7 over our Eletta Explore, but says that milk foam could be even denser.

There are some more less significant cons as well:

• cannot use my travel mug or tall coffee cup,
• it would be great to have option to use two different types of beans (selectable).
  
  

Final thoughts: great all-rounder, no significant cons, great coffee – do we need anything more? 😊

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful design, compact - takes up little space in the kitchen, well-made, very easy to use. Wide selection of coffees. If you like coffee - I recommend this machine. I love it. The only drawback for me is, unfortunately, the price - definitely too high.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this machine and I'm really happy about it. You have a lot of different coffees you can make with 1 easy tap. You can personalize your own coffees with a lot of specific options and safe them in your account. I like this machine and would recommend it for sure.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, very positive about this coffee machine. It is very easy to start up and install. There aren’t many steps required to make your first coffee. The display is very clear with straightforward instructions. Even a beginner can get started quickly. In addition, it’s great that there are many options for different coffee types. Everything can be individually adjusted and customized, from strength to quantity, as well as texture and temperature. This is definitely an added value for the variety of drinks you can make, allowing you to tailor everything to your own taste and preference! An absolute plus point. Another great feature is that you can create personal profiles with your favorite drinks and settings! Definitely another big advantage of this machine. Furthermore, it operates very quietly, even when grinding the beans. The large water reservoir is also a plus. Finally, the cleaning mechanism is clear and easy to use. So far, we haven’t experienced any downsides with this machine. Highly recommended!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The KitchenAid KF7 is a compact automatic espresso machine, simple yet elegant and functional. The top section houses the grinder and ground coffee compartment, which holds approximately 270 grams and is designed to be easily removable. Equally easy to remove, on the side of the machine, is the over two-liter water tank with its own filter. The packge also includes an external milk container, a milk tube, a convenient scoop for ground coffee, and the water filter.

The machine's software offers over 20 different recipes to choose from, allowing for a high level of customization for each, from water temperature to coffee strength and the percentages of coffee and milk in the various blends. It's also possible to create various profiles to save these customizations, and there's also the option to customize certain machine behaviors, such as the shutdown time or cleaning management.

It takes about 40 seconds to heat up from the moment it's turned on, and compared to other coffee machines, the noise level is quite low, even while grinding the beans and brewing the coffee.

When turning the machine on and off, it always cleans the ducts, which I think consumes a lot of water in the long run, especially since it performs additional cleaning between each brew.

For my personal taste, I'd prefer a denser coffee and a more airy milk froth in cappuccinos, but overall, the various preparations seem adequate and taste good.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I highly recommend it. Premium equipment, and you can see that right away. It really meets all my expectations. The coffee is delicious and aromatic, and the milk foam is delicate and thick – just perfect.

Very intuitive – even my husband can figure it out, and that's not always a given :). The large, easy-to-read display makes it much easier to use. You can set the language you want to use, and there is a wide selection of languages (including Polish). A huge plus is the wide selection of coffees. You can choose your favourite type, as well as the intensity, quantity in ml and strength. Of course, the machine saves your settings so you don't have to repeat them.

You can use both whole beans and ground coffee, which is rare.

Cleaning the machine is very easy – it tells you when and what to do, and the parts are easy to remove. The milk system cleaning system is also fantastic – it leaves no foreign taste.

Another advantage is the quiet operation of the machine. Obviously, it has to grind coffee, draw water and milk, so you can hear it, but it is really quiet compared to other models.

All this is complemented by a beautiful, stylish design. No kitsch.

The only thing I miss is the inability to make cold coffee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Is a truly impressive machine from an aesthetic standpoint, with substantial dimensions that convey solidity and premium quality. When I first saw it, I was thrilled, but my enthusiasm diminished quickly during installation and daily use.

The instructions provided are extremely sparse and vague. I even tried searching online for a more detailed manual but couldn’t find one, only basic quick-start guides covering elementary functions.

For a machine of this price and complexity, I expected much more comprehensive and clear documentation.

The real problem emerges in daily use: what should be a pleasure turns into work. The machine requires excessive amounts of water for its automatic cleaning cycles, both during startup and shutdown and especially when using the milk function, which in my case is always: it wastes too much water and time.

The msking of both coffee and milk is very slow in my opinion, making the preparation frustrating when you’re in a hurry. The practicality of use falls far short of expectations for an automatic machine.

The only real positive note is the taste of the coffee and various beverages: exceptional, truly café-quality.

The quality of the final result is indisputable and there’s nothing to fault on this aspect.

In conclusion, this is a machine that could be excellent but is penalized by overly cumbersome daily management and insufficient documentation. Recommended only for those who have plenty of time and patience to dedicate to it, decidedly less suitable for those seeking practicality and speed in their daily routine.
