What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Produces excellent espresso with rich crema and superior flavor for a super-automatic
- TouchScreen interface is intuitive and responsive, making drink selection and on-the-fly adjustments easy
- Professional Aroma Grinder 2 with burr decompression reduces retention and allows grind adjustment between uses
Reviewers push back
- No multi-user profiles—only one saved recipe per drink type, requiring manual on-the-fly adjustments for different preferences
- Plastic casing throughout except for spouts and drip tray grate
- Brew unit is sealed and non-removable, requiring tablet-based cleaning cycles rather than manual maintenance
“Jura, out of all the Super Automatics that I've used, consistently puts out the best flavor of espresso in both strength, consistency, mouth feel, flavor profile, everything.”
