My new bestie
I wasn't sure it was going to be worth the money but it continues to prove its value each and every day when we use it. Self cleaning, simple instructions, perfect for plant based milk and fully automatic. The whole family uses it and we each have our own presets and multiple milk containers and bean hoppers (decaf and full cap beans). We dont buy coffee out anymore as ...

Let down by luke warm flat white
Great machine in every aspect, though very disappointed in the luke warm flat whites it produces. The temperature is around 51c... should be at least 60c.
I have to nuke the coffee after it's made. Very disappointed for an expensive machine.

Amazing espresso machine!
This superautomatic espresso machine is amazing! I've had Jura machines in the past and was impressed, but the reviews for this Kitchenaid machine convinced me to give it a try. I am so thankful I did, because it far exceeded my expectations! The ability to customize drinks is impressive, and the quality is amazing! I am extremely pleased with this purchase.

Love it
I love my white KF8 fully automatic coffee machine. It is big but because it is white it only blends to my bench top and wall. It doesn’t make space look smaller. I can also select the beans and type of milk I want. Making me more addicted to coffee … hahaha

I love my KF8
I've only had the KF8 for a couple of months, but it has become my go-to for my morning cuppa.
I primarily use the "Coffee" and "Americano" settings, but occasionally later in the day I might go with a milk based drink. I came from the Philips Latte-Go and this is definitely a step up. I mean, for the price, it should be.
Overall, I'm quite happy with my purchase.

Great coffee
The KF8 was the perfect machine for our family. The quiet grinding is incredible and provides the lack of waking up we wanted when the other one of us is asleep.
The only issue I have is the coffee is on the smaller side but this is easily rectified by playing with the settings or making a double.
A truly incredible machine.

Easy to use - fab coffee
Bought my machine in the Black Friday sales and am so happy. I am not very tech savvy but this machine guides you through every process. It is such a beautiful design it looks amazing on the bench and most importantly makes amazing coffee. It cleans itself prompting you in easy steps. I would highly recommend. It is high quality, solid and offers so many drink opti...

Happy Purchase
I purchased this device almost a year ago. My spouse and I have used it A LOT. The only problem I have encountered so far is when I used a certain kind of coffee bean that was more oily than others. That particular type of coffee bean would stick to the hopper, and I'd manually have to push it down from time to time. Once I switched to a less oily type of coffee bean, i...

Best choice we made.
We got the fully automated espresso machine about a month ago. Love the automated features that it offers for both brewing and self cleaning. Very convenient and easy to use.

Works great, very happy with my purchase.
I purchased the Kitchen Aid to replace my Delonghi coffee machine which I had for 5 years and was always a little disappointed with it. Very happy with the KF8 coffee machine. It was cheaper than the Delonghi and actually makes hot coffee. I would certainly recommend the KitchenAid KF8.

Great versatility and quality
I have had this machine for a month and I love the versatility it offers. Modifying volumes, coffee strength and mixes are fast and easy. I also find the machine is very quiet. A great choise in my opinion.

Makes a great coffee
Makes a great coffee, but uses a lot of water before and after its coffee making process.
For every coffee or two made, the machine purges itself around 1 cup of water. So it's pretty heavy on water consumption and obviously fills the waste trays quite quickly with waste water.
Apart from that, 2 months on it seems like a good machine that makes good coffee.

Great coffee, and so easy to use
Had a look at several coffee machines before settling on the Kitchen Aid, even though there were none on display in our town. Very pleased with it. It is simple to operate, quiet, with many features to explore. Pity the milk function does not double when making two cups together.
