It is a great machine, unfortunately mine broke just shy of one year! Good thing I had purchased the extended warranty! However that just shows how cheap these machines are made that they won’t even last a full year

Great all in one system that has a large variety of brew options. Did not include the water filter so would recommend to pick one to avoid having to descale.

From the poor quality construction to the inferior ability to produce a simple espresso, this machine is simply an excessively expensive conglomeration of cheap plastic & electronics. A simple Keurig machine produces an espresso of equal quality to this machine at a third of the price. Either spend more and get a better machine & cup of coffee or espresso or settle for a decent cup of coffee from a drip or Nespresso or K-cup.

Good espresso, machine issues disappointing

Makes very good coffee however, constant issues with the water tank that I’ve been unable to resolve despite online assistance. Unfortunately these began just beyond the 14 day Best Buy return window so now I’m stuck with trying to call into Philips product support. The machine has a water light which indicates the water tank is empty. Whether I use the filter or not, the machine almost requires me to slam the water tank in just to have a chance to recognize it isn’t empty. Very disappointed after being highly satisfied the first 10 days of use. Seems perhaps the machine quality or the quality control may be poor.

Hi,
Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We are sorry to hear about the problem you’ve encountered with your Philips 1200 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine. When the “water tank empty” warning light is on, it indicates that the water tank is almost empty or the water tank is not in place. To fix this, we advise to remove the water tank and fill it to the Max with water. Makes sure that the water tank is pushed far enough into the machine until the light goes off.
If this doesn’t help to resolve the issue, there might be another underlying cause. We kindly advise you to contact our customer service team, so we’ll be able to assist you further.
You can reach out to us via our Social Media Channels, or through the support page on our website.
Kind regards,

Liked that we could store the beans in the unit and the side steamer function. However, it was SO SLOW to turn on. Every morning that bothered me a lot. For the price, I wanted to Love this espresso machine, but it just fell short from my expectations. Ended up returning it. If it had been less expensive, maybe we would have kept it.

Disappointing. I have the higher end model Philips machine and bought this one for my 2nd home thinking that it would make the same great cup of coffee, but just didn’t have all of the features I never use. Turns out it makes weak and inconsistent coffee, so I returned it and got a DeLonghi that costed less and worked great.
