CEG5311X Bean to Cup Automatic Espresso Machine with Steam Wand, Nozzle, One touch LCD control, 19 bar pressure, Removable 1.6L Water Tank - Stainless Steel

This little fully automatic coffee machine is fantastic. We cannot get rid of trying new coffee beans every time we are in the supermarket because of how good it is. Functionality: 1- Grinding adjustments can be made based on your own preference. 2- Milk frother is LOUDER than expected; however, efficient. 3- Water tank capacity is OK. They could have made it bigger, but I assume it will ruin the machine's aesthetics. 4- We have a relatively small-medium kitchen, the slim design of the machine makes it the perfect fit, and it also looks elegant and easy on the eyes. 5- Although it will show you that it requires DEEP cleaning after some time, I recommend cleaning it weekly. 6- Lastly, our only complaint is that the ground coffee bin should have been larger as it fills quite quickly. Overall, top-notch coffee machine!

I bought this two times and both were defective. I spend so much time to try to make it work. The water wont come out and I wrote that other people also had this issue.

My siemens just stopped working. Ordered this for the value for money and it surprised me alot. The coffee temperature is much warmer then my siemens was

Delivers good coffee, relatively quite and compact in size when copare to other bean-to-cup machines I tried. Easy to operate no programing needed yet is possible and easy as well. The reason for the missing star is that the waste tray has no indicator and the coffe container is not transparent.

Not at my first machine, I'd certainly recommend this one.

Received my Beko bean to cup in open condition. The box was damaged which shows if wasn’t stored safely and had been abused. On closer inspection saw multiple labels that this item was returned by other buyer before. Did not expect this.

The machine is very unstable and high maintenance and very loud

With scratches on the top, coffee stains and ground coffee inside of the machine! Definitely disappointed, especially that this is fulfilled by Amazon.

Easily the best coffee machine out there for the price paid, I was originally unsure about going for a brand which typically make fridges and washing machines but after watching a few review videos I decided to give it a go and I’m glad I did, it’s easy to use, grinds well and looks really smart. The espresso tastes great and produces a good créma and once you play with the water settings you can have it make americanos too. You’ve also got the option to use the hot water feed to make tea/americano as well and the milk frother is simple to use too. Like other reviews it’s really hard to find any negatives about the machine however I will mention that you will need to keep the tank topped up with water as the machine does like to self clean upon every start up and shut down, even then that’s not a negative because it’s constantly clean! Others have complained about this feature and if it really is a big deal you still have the option to turn this off on settings. 100% would recommend this machine.

I'm surprised by how well this coffee machine is performing. In terms of coffee blending it's excellent and suits all palettes in terms of taste/size of grind. The handy removable water tank is great, the ability to set up your preferred cup size is also a really nice touch. The steamer/milk frother and hot water nozzle works well although sometimes it can be a bit clumsy and takes a couple of presses before activating the steam option properly (although it could be user error :-) ). It self cleans at start up and when it shuts down either manually or via the internal timer, guaranteeing a fresh brew every time. Cleaning the machine is really simple, just removing the drip tray and then the internal collection pot which slides out with ease and is super easy to clean. It also comes with some descaling sachets which it recommends should be used once a month (I'm just about to do its first monthly cleaning cycle). The only downside I would say is the noise on start up is a little loud, however, its a minor issue and doesn't take away from all that's good about this machine. If you are looking for a great entry level bean to cup you won't find better, in fact, it's as good as many of the mid-range models that cost £200/300 more. I would certainly recommend it above the coffee pod machines and if you are looking to venture into the world of bean to cup but don't want to pay the crazy prices that some manufacturers charge. Highly recommended

Love this machine. Simple clean look, easy to use, makes great crema on the espresso and steam wand makes good latte/cappuccino. Self cleaning. Doesn’t take up much space but could depend on your space to work with. Obviously bigger than a nespresso machine but smaller than most bean to cup machines. Doesn’t have all the buttons like some machines to change every detail but personally I prefer that, I’m not the type of person who spends a lot of time fiddling around changing coffee tastes, I prefer to just change beans and grind and get a quicker outcome. Some people have mentioned it doesn’t make hot enough coffee but I disagree it’s perfect drinking temp. They’ve also said steam wand doesn’t work correctly but I think they may have misread the instructions or have a broken machine. I purchased mine through warehouse and it’s been perfect.

Didn't last much longer than 12mths. It was z budget beans to cup maker, but I'd expect it to last longer making anvavg of X3 Espressos per day

It's a shame, I really loved this machine but 12 days outside of the 12 month warranty period it's started leaking around the dispensing nozzle, seems as if something is blocking the nozzle, tried a self clean, and poking a pin up the nozzle and blowing through the nozzle all to no avail, tried the Beko help desk, they couldn't suggest anything else, and basically said bummer, nothing we can do, bit disappointed but can't really do much about it, so its fornthe tip. My review after 6 months is below. Actually a pretty good machine, I waited for it to come up half price which it does regularly. The only real downside to this machine that I've found is that the coffee it makes isn't the hottest, for me it's drinkable immediately it's made, I drink coffee with a splash of milk, if you like milky coffee then you'll need to add hot milk for which the steam wand is excellent or microwave the milk. The settings are a bit fiddly until you get the hang of them as are the selection buttons which are touch sensitive areas below each illuminated icon, there's a knack to pressing the right place, not difficult but bit fiddly at first. You can set the large expresso to whatever amount of water you want and then it remembers the last setting, so I have it set to give me a 3/4 mug of black coffee. I've ended up getting a 9/10 Lavazza expresso bean so the coffee taste is not too diluted, a 1 kilo bag lasts me about 3 months and I drink 2 or 3 cups a day. The machine cleans the dispensing nozzle on start up and before shut down, I wrongly assumed it would tell me when the drip tray was full but it doesn't, so I just tip it out every day, it fills up quickly, especially if you leave it a while between drinks since it auto shuts off after about 10mins, so it self cleans on start up, on auto shutdown, after I turn it on again and again when it auto shuts off lol, at the same time I refill the water. Used the steam wand and that's pretty good, bought a 330ml stainless steel jug to do this. It also dispenses hot water which I've never needed or used. I empty the used grindings when it tells me to, the only other thing which has caught me out is if it's half way through dispensing a drink and then it senses something needs emptying, it pauses, but then as soon as you've rectified the issue is carries on dispensing, so if you run out of water half way through a cup, keep the mug in place when you start refilling. Bottom line, if this machine ever breaks down I'd definitely get another one to replace it.
