4400 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine, LatteGo Milk System, Integrated Grinder, 12 Hot & Iced Coffee Pre-Sets, Quick Start, SilentBrew, 15-Bar Pressure, Black Chrome (EP4444/90)

Really like this machine. Fanciest prior was a grinder and K-cup machine, thought I was riding high with fresh ground coffee. I've always been the basic coffee, sugar, cream kind of guy. Like the Cappuccinos every once in a while if I was out and about (almost never). Got over espresso when I was stationed in Italy and had some fresh squeezed beans in a shot glass cup. My son kinda got me started on a Starbucks something/something fancy thing, but I couldn't remember the name of it. Twenty years USAF LE, coffee was life. So, saw the 3300 version on Amazon Day sale and figured why not. Was about to order it when I saw there was a 4400. Twice the cost? Why? Checked it out. That is when I found out that there was different types of coffee within coffee types. Who knew? Always thought a latte was coffee and milk, put some sugar with it, it's what I drank. Then saw a Latte Macchiato, figured latte with different name. Nope, seems there is a coffee to milk ratio that is different, not to mention milk vs frothed milk. Saw a few more options of the 4400, worlds of coffee creations started swimming through my head. Head started hurting...more than coffee, cream, sugar? And not needing specialty store that charges umpteen dollars a cup? Not to mention trying to figure out what the actual size of their cups are. Then saw there was such a thing as a 5500. Oh no! Looked, nope. May be turning into a coffee snob (cappas. lattes. crema. oh my), but cold brew? No. Coffee must be hot otherwise it ain't coffee and why bother. This line I cannot cross. So, got the 4400. Saw the reviews about leaks and such. Ain't had no problem. When I first put milk in the latte go container, it did leak. My fault, didn't snap the bottom closed. Water in the drip tray? Well, it does rinse out the nozzles, where do you think it goes? Did put a cup and then a bowl down to try and cut down on it, but it doesn't help. Doesn't matter anyway. The machine tells you when to empty the grounds container, empty the drip tray the same time. Played with the grind size when I got it. Switched back and forth, couldn't figure out which way was a finer grind. Didn't look at the marking either, so, oh well. At least it has pictures for the drinks, so I don't have to guess on that. I have been very happy with the coffee that has been coming out of this machine. The only complaint I have is that of quantity. I use a mug (why bother with cups) and end up having to brew two cycles of some types. Some let you do a double, others don't. No problem there either, doesn't take long from grind to finish. Not to mention I can mix they process. So far my favorite is brew a regular latte then brew a macchiato on top of that. Fills the mug nicely and tastes great. As for sugar, which I still use.. That goes in first and gets stirred up when the first latte coffee is brewing in, before the frothing takes place. Shake/roll the mug after the top goes on and the sugar dissolves through nicely. Yeah, all this just to say this machine makes good coffee, runs well and I'm glad I paid the extra for the added choices. Not to mention being able to keep the mechanics of the thing cleaner and oiled. Should last quite a long time. Now, excuse me while I drink down my double caffe crema with a frothed topper.

Don’t recommend. I thought there was something wrong with it for a while, but just turns out it makes really, really weak coffee. For how much this costs, it’s a huge disappointment. I would recommend doing more research. For this to make a good cup of coffee I have do a full strength cup of coffee with two shots in it - since you can’t automate preferred drinks it means I end up standing in front of the thing for a long time pushing buttons and waiting every morning. So sad considering before this I had a saeco that made amazing strong coffee, and was half the price. The milk frothing and everything else is great, just such a shame the primary function, making coffee, is so weak. Ran out my return period by accident - if you try it and don’t like the coffee return it IMMEDIATELY. Don’t buy this nonsense online that there is a “break in period” and accidentally run the clock out

I have another popular espresso machine. It still works great, but the grinder can be loud and the process of making any type of coffee leaves a mess to clean up after. I decided to look into a fully automatic espresso machine. After much research I decided on this Philips 4400 series machine. The features looked good and seemed to do every type of coffee me and my wife like. It also seemed to be easy to use and would not have to do much clean up after making my coffee. My only concern was if it was going to be able to make a strong enough espresso or coffee Latte. Once I received the machine I set it up by following the instructions on both paper and on the screen. It was very easy to setup. I put some of my favorite coffee beans and started making espressos as that is the basis for just about all the other drinks you make. At first the espressos came out watered down. I made some changes to the settings and adjusted the grinding from 6 to 2. That made a huge difference. By the way, when adjusting the grinder, you have to do it while you're making an espresso and only turn the nob once at a time. After getting the espresso to the right strength, I saved it to my profile. From there I tried ice coffee Latte and a hot coffee Latte. They both came out perfect and the frothy milk is fantastic. If you look at my photos. You can see how good the coffees came out with the frothy milk on top. Cleaning was a breeze too. I have the machine set to clean and warm at the beginning when I turn it on. It will drop some water when it does that, so I put a cup so that it doesn't fill the tray as quickly. When shutting off the machine, it will clean its self and will drop some water as well, so I leave a cup after as well. This really is an impressive machine with easy clean up. If you're able to get it on prime day or other time that has a discount, it becomes even more worth it. The only thing, I can think of that would make this machine even better, is if the outside was made completely of steel. I think it would give it that prime look and feel. On the other hand, the way it looks now, still looks nice and it's very light to move around. If you're considering a fully automatic espresso machine, I highly recommend this one.

This Philips 4400 Series espresso machine is absolutely amazing! The fully automatic functionality makes perfect espresso every time. The LatteGo milk system creates incredibly creamy froth and the integrated grinder ensures fresh beans with every cup. Easy to clean and maintain. Variety of drink options and consistent quality. Best coffee machine investment ever. Café-quality drinks at home!

I’m not proud of the amount of coffee my family and I have consumed in the last 2 months, but I will say that this machine has made it easy to do so. For starters if you don’t want to read, the machine is excellent and worth every penny, I’ve owned many types of coffee makers, super automatic and others and this one is by far my favourite, with the colour screen and huge option of coffees nothing even comes close in this price range. NOTHING. Ice espresso is a delight in the summer, the latte is better than any I’ve bought anywhere, the coffee is perfect, espresso is excellent, the spent coffee pucks come out nice and dry and as expected, this machine performs as well as or better than your local Starbucks or specialty café. The machine operates very quietly, however at around 800 coffees the machine started to lose its prime, so the water pump runs with a small air bubble and is now louder than when we first bought it. Some might also complain that you have to fill the water and empty the grinds frequently, WELL, unless you want to spend 5000$ stop whining. This machine actually cancels a coffee if the hopper doesn’t have enough beans, it will pause and prompt you to fill up the water if it runs out mid coffee, and continue the coffee once you’ve filled it, the milk doesn’t have the same ability, so fill it up according to the drink your making. Eliminate your kettle for making a tea, because this machine has a hot water function that works flawlessly with incredibly hot water, which can also be used to pour 100ml of super hot water to VERY QUICKLY heat up your mug ( my wife finds her coffee not hot enough because she likes so much cream ) I drink mine black and often goes right into a yeti. Its burn your mouth hot when your coffee is served. You will not regret buying this machine, Also, buy the right beans that are not oily for your hopper to work well. Oily beans are not good for super automatic machines. Tonino Lamborghini is a great choice. No affiliation with them. Just a huge preference.

Es la segunda máquina que compro y la pasada toda excelente pero esta Acabo de abrir mi compra y preparar mis cafés pero constantemente sale la leyenda “Añadir Agua” aun cuando tiene el agua llena …. Constantemente sale ese anuncio y es tan molesto porque interrumpe la Preparación de mis cafés :( que decepción pues es una máquina cara (más de 1000dlls ) para que me salga así :( …. Muy pero muy decepcionado :( espero el vendedor pueda darme alguna garantía !

It’s ok .. only order if going to keep. Refunds take over a month which is unacceptable.

Je suis encore à l'ajustement du café mais cette machine fonctionne très bien. Très silencieuse. J'ai le nouveau modèle 2024 "Silent brew" 4400. Le pavé tactile est sensible et fonctionne très bien. Facile à comprendre. Les étapes s'affichent sur l'écran. Je suis très satisfait à date. Le mousseur à lait fonctionne très bien quoique je dois encore trouver la recette parfaite de café et mousse de lait. Le nettoyage est super facile. La machine chauffe vite. L'eau très chaude, pas de soucis avec ça. Les boissons glacées sont bonnes. J'adore. J'ai acheté ce modèle car le café glacée en raccourcis à l'écran. Pas sur les vieilles version 3400 par exemple. On dit 12 boissons mais en réalité c'est plus 13, si on ajoute le lait emultionné pour le chocolat chaud par exemple. Le café latté est le meilleur jai jamais goûté. Dommage que nous ne pouvons pas changer les icônes dans le menu rapide sur l'écran. Bref, je recommande la 4400 de philips. J'ai essayé la 3400 avant mais j'ai du la retourner. Pour 10$ de plus, j'ai eu le nouveau modèle 2024. Je recommande ce produit surtout si vous aimez les boissons lactées. Parfaites à tout coup.

Superbe machine très simple à utiliser je l adore Compacte et très bonne qualité Goût du café incroyable Nettoyage ultra simple Je recommande fortement!!!!!!
