EQ700 Fully Automatic Bean to Cup Coffee Machine, 5" Touch Screen Display, Cold Brew/Slow Brew, Integrated Milk Container, 30+ Coffee Beverages, Home Connect, TQ713GB3

One of the best purchases I’ve made, I’ve bought a lot of coffee machines in the past from percolators to drip machines but never a bean to cup machine This being my first has opened my eyes to what I’ve been missing out on. Barista level high quality coffee every morning and any time I feel like it has been a wonderful experience It’s a little expensive but you get quality with what you pay, easy to clean and easy to use and it even has an app you can use to start it up before you get to the kitchen It’s not as noisy as any other coffee machine, it’s more quiet than those Tassimo or Dulce Gusto ones You can adjust almost everything from the brew of the coffee, grind, milk amount etc. it’s really fun to customise and find your favourite combo It’s got a bunch of nice drinks, lattes, cappuccino, americano, cold brew, espresso etc

I’ve cycled through many bean-to-cup machines over the years, usually moving on once I hit their limitations or—more likely—once the "new toy" feeling wears off. I tend to get bored a bit too quickly for my wallet's liking, but the EQ700 caught my eye with its sleek design and a drink menu longer than some wine lists. So far, it hasn’t disappointed. Design & Interface: It looks incredibly sharp on the counter. While the touchscreen isn’t quite "latest iPhone" responsive, it’s a massive upgrade over those prehistoric displays that only show one line of text at a time. The "CoffeeWorld" feature is a standout; it explains drinks I couldn't even pronounce, let alone knew existed. I recently made a "Wiener Melange"—I still don’t know if I’m saying it right, but thanks to this machine, I can officially say I’ve tried it! Impressive Noise Levels: This is easily the quietest machine I’ve owned. Of course, it still has to actually grind the beans (unless you want "coffee-scented water"), but it’s a polite hum rather than a jet engine roar. You can actually have a conversation next to it without feeling like you're on a construction site. Your sleeping family members will thank you. Milk System & Temperature: The milk container is genius for the lazy (like me). You can keep it in the fridge all day and just rinse it at night. It even does a little steam purge after every drink, which is basically the machine cleaning up after itself. Regarding the temperature: the milk is warm, not "molten lava" hot. For some, this is a flaw; for me, it’s a feature. I drink coffee to wake up, not to suffer 3rd-degree burns, so being able to down my drink immediately is a huge win. Maintenance & Value: It’s an expensive investment, but the build quality feels like it’s going to go the distance. Just make sure you actually listen to it when it asks to be descaled—don't ghost your coffee machine. Look after it, and it will look after you! Highly recommended.

Drinks Luke warm

Simply the best I love my coffee machine so easy to use and clean

I have had this coffee maker a couple of months now. All in all it's pretty good. The selection of coffees is great. And the app is very good. The froth on most coffees is ok. Not quite as frothy as my Delonghi bean to cup was. But then we kept having problems with it. So hopefully we won't with this one. However it doesn't make a frothy latte. Or cafe au last. Which is disappointing. Hence 4 stars instead of 5. Coffees are hot enough, I have mine set on max. Also to clean the milk system you either need the milk jug empty, or a carton adapter. I bought a spare milk jug and use that. It was cheaper than the adapter. And I don't have to keep emptying the milk out.

I do love this machine. it's quick, it's quieter than other machines I have ownded. My only negative point and the reason i only gave it 4 stars is because of the temperature. I have it set on max temp, but it's not very hot. It's great if you want an espresso to drink immediately after making. But if you want a larger drink that you can put down for a few mins and still be hot, you'll be disappointed. I wish manufacturers would allow us to set the temp by temperature in degrees, rather than a preset temp.)

BEWARE! I bought this coffee maker and before the 6 month mark it blew up and triggered my electricity switchboard to trip. Then there was no power to it at all. I contacted Siemens and they told me I had to take pack it up and drop it off at a DPD point. Which I did. All 11kg of a hefty machine. They took five days to inspect it and now tell me a part is on order and it will take another three weeks to get it back. I expected so much more from Siemens. However they told me that repairing it AT ALL, is a "goodwill gesture" on their part. So basically I should be OK being sold a coffee machine that blew up less than 6 months after I bought and a month to get it back is somehow reasonable. I doubt the fault is my machine only. So BEWARE!

Love this machine and its great value for money for what it does. Its very durable and the size is compact so it can fit on your kitchen counter. The touch screen display is clear and easy to navigate even early in the morning. I like how many drink options it offers, from classic espresso to cold brew and milk based coffees. The integrated milk container works well and makes cappuccinos and lattes taste smooth and consistent. Coffee quality is rich and aromatic, and the grinder sounds solid and well built. The Home Connect app is handy for starting a drink from another room and saving personal preferences. One downside is that the machine takes a bit of time to clean and maintain because of all the features. Even with that issue, it has made daily coffee more enjoyable and feels like a good upgrade from a basic machine.
