We have been using this Philips Late-go for 4 month now and I love it. It is not top shelf coffee machine but perfect for our needs.We drink a lot of coffee in my house and even more since we bought this machine. I had different espresso and coffee makers before trying all ways of crafting good coffee and finally I decided to give a try to an automatic espresso machine. That was a great choice.

Just purchased this machine and I absolutely love it! It’s quick and easy to use, with a compact design that fits perfectly in my small Air BnB space. It looks sleek and elegant on the bench, and most importantly, the coffee tastes fantastic! I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Guesthouse · nespresso.com
