Editorial note

The Philips Saeco Xelsis Suprema SM8885 coffee machine stands out with its modern stainless steel design, which integrates seamlessly into any kitchen. The intuitive interface with a color TFT screen offers a pleasant user experience, making it easy to select drinks from the 22 available programs, ranging from espressos to cappuccinos. However, there are a few drawbacks to note. The lack of a built-in grinder may disappoint fresh coffee enthusiasts, limiting the possibilities for flavor customization. Additionally, its power of 1500 W can lead to relatively high energy consumption, which is not ideal for those concerned about their environmental impact. Weighing 11 kg also makes the machine difficult to move, and the 1.7 L water tank, while adequate for home use, may require frequent refills in high coffee consumption households. Despite these drawbacks, the Philips Saeco Xelsis Suprema SM8885 remains a solid choice for coffee lovers seeking a stylish and high-performing machine, ready to cater to a variety of beverage preferences.
