KF8 Fully Automatic coffee machine.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this as my wife wanted a fully automatic coffee machine. I still like to do things myself. It works fine and produces a good range of coffees. Probably one of the best fully automatic machines I have seen. It is just very noisy and very expensive for what it does.

Love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Coffee machine looks so good and it’s so easy to clean. I can’t recommend it enough. + Big touch screen and responsive + swappable bean hopper + water container conveniently at the side and big + self cleaning + drinks customisable + premium finish - removable bean hopper should come with a lid Thanks Kitchenaid for price matching!

Look forward to my latte every morning
Great super automatic espresso machine. I’m glad I purchased it. It does go through a lot of cleaning cycles be warned. I wish the water reservoir was larger to accommodate that built in setting. Easy to clean for the most part and easy to use.

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.

My new bestie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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 it's clearly better from home now. The best and you wont regret it.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, we really appreciate the wonderful review. It’s great to hear the machine has proven its value day after day, and I couldn’t agree more… a homemade coffee always hits differently. ☕🤗

KF8 loud but works as expected
This is our 2nd one to replace the defective unit. So far 1 month and it works well. Very loud, but functions as expected.

Grinds stuck in bypass chute
I have only had this machine a few days and the grinds are stuck in the bypass chute so when I try to make a decaf I am getting dirty water. I can not find any trouble shooting for this issue, please advise. I really want to like this machine so I can get away from using coffee pods but the coffee is just not hot enough and I have it set to high.

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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

Morning Coffee Game Changer
I bought this for my wife and wow! what an amazing machine. It's super easy to setup and use and the coffee settings and user profiles take this machine to the next level. I'm so glad we went with KitchenAid.

Step up from our Jura
The coffee is good, better than our previous machine, a Jura, although now i wonder if that one wasn't using enough coffee. There are some issues with the usability, like why are the profile names all in small light grey text, so hard to read first thing in the morning? And how do you reset just one of the default drinks back to factory settings if someone's changed something? A few times now when we've pulled the tray out to empty it, there's been water underneath, which we end up dragging onto the floor by pulling out the tray, making a mess. Not sure why. Also while most of the tray is easy to clean, the part that sits under the cups has some tight corners that are a pain to clean well.

Easy to use, Reliability still undecided
I am glad I did not pay full price. The machine is ok. The system is used about 4 times da day, mainly for straight coffee. I just installed a second water filter. This seems extremely odd considering the system is not used anymore than my old Keurig. Coffee temperatures should be increased for all drink options.I have it set to the hottest temp and it is simply ok. I like the inclusiveness of the system but wish the milk container was not an additional unit.

Perfect purchase
We extensively researched, fully automatic, espresso machines and are extremely pleased with our purchase. The quality of the build and operation of the espresso machine is first class. The user interface is intuitive including the cleaning.

Does Great Job & almost totally cleans itself.
Actually this Automatic Espresso Machine is a replacement for one that I had for almost 10 months old when it started leaking water. KitcchenAid cheerfully replaced it. Thank You So Much

Just buy it!
I look forward to morning lattes every day! This machine is consistent, easy to use, and easy to clean. I've never had a fully automatic espresso machine before and I don't know why I waited so long. It's definitely a splurge worth buying!

If like plant-based milk, this is for you!
Great espresso machine so far. I prefer oatmilk, so I bought it specifically because it has this option. Make sure you buy Barista milk if you want to work it properly; I'm not sure about cow milk. Very easy to maintain and clean; KitchenAid did an excellent job.
