PHILIPS L'OR BARISTA Coffee Capsule Machine & Milk Frother, for Double or Single Capsule, Black (LM8014/60)

​I am absolutely thrilled with this machine! Honestly, it is the best thing I’ve bought in the last few years. The quality and usability are top-notch, and it feels like a premium piece of kit on my kitchen counter. It looks fantastic and is incredibly practical. ​What I Love: ​The Genius Design: I love how the used pods fall into their own container. Unlike other machines I’ve had, the water doesn’t mix with the empty pods, keeping everything much cleaner and easier to maintain. ​Versatility: Being able to use both standard single pods and the XXL pods is brilliant. If I need a serious kick, the XXL does the job perfectly without needing two separate capsules. ​Milk Frother: The milk frother on the side is excellent—it makes café-quality foam and is very easy to use. ​Value for Money: The price is totally legit. For the build quality and the features you get, it is extremely good value. ​The Coffee: ​I’ve already registered and received a great discount for the pods, and I’ve got my first bulk delivery on the way. The coffee is exactly what I was looking for: good, strong, and nice. L’OR seems to focus on the coffee quality rather than just "shiny pods," which I really appreciate. We don't need fancy marketing; we just need that strong caffeine kick! ​Final Thoughts: ​I’m so happy with this purchase. My only hope now is that the machine is robust enough to last for years without issues and that L’OR keeps their pod prices fair. If you want a practical, genius design that delivers a strong coffee, this is the one to get. ​Highly recommended! ​Note: I am a genuine buyer and owner of this machine; I used an AI assistant to help me polish my thoughts and structure this review to make sure it was clear!

Wonderful. Lovely to have the milk frother, coffee so tasty. I bought the L'0r and the 'same as' coffee, much cheaper than their own brand. Great price. Lrge but to be expected. Easy to clean and empty. Large water container which saves keeping filling.

Of course, the flavour of the coffee is down to the capsules you buy, but, having never had one of these types of machine before, I'm completely sold on the convenience. I have a small espresso machine and seperate bean grinder, and froth the milk using the espresso machine's spout, and this is great, but involves a fair bit of cleaning. The Philips, on the other hand, is cleaned in a minute or so, quickly removing the relevant parts and running them under the tap, wiping off, etc. Even the milk frother takes no time at all to clean, so long as it's done straight after use. Some users find the frother not to their likiing, but it's perfect for me. Filling it half to the "max" line does a single cup of milk with practically no liquid left, and to the line leaves some hot milk and enough froth for 2 cups. Given it's only producing coffee for one or two cups at a time, that seems fair. The milk comes out beautifully, just as required for cappucino, for example. For a latte, it's not going to give you the same amount of hot milk liquid plus foam needed - but the machine isn't really aimed at that drink. I've not yet tried the cold milk setting - the weather's not been so blazingly sunny since I received the machine. I'm using it with Odd Coffee pods to make use of normally disposed of coffee, but given it takes the original Nespresso type, there's a wide range of choice out there. Personally, I think it's worth every penny paid.

We had previously ordered this through another site however the package never arrived, as a last ditch attempt we were lucky to come across this on here and it was delivered less than a day after we ordered. The machine itself is simple to use and whilst the instructions are predominantly picture based it explains it clearly enough in the images. The milk frother is a bonus as it allows for you to have a proper café style coffee without needing to leave the house. the compatibility for other pods is also great allowing for less restriction as other coffee pod machines.

Easy to use excellent

Got this on sale and it is fantastic. Needed for my rugby club to make coffees for spectators. The dual spouts are great and the frother is quick. Nie design and great value for money. Highly recommend.

Well what can I say Except !!! If you haven’t got this machine you truly are missing out ! I chose this machine as I have been through different brands and so far this one trumps them A*** for quality , reliability and easy to use . The milk frother is easy to clean and easy to use and the creamiest of milk for your milky drinks .

Utter utter junk. Flimsy handle that broke in weeks. Before it broke it just mangled pods. Before that it just made dirty water, not coffee. Even the brief time functional it was no good and dribbled far too long. I sent it back to be fixed (I clearly stated 2 problems - it came back with a note that just one of them i.e. the lever was now fixed. It wasn't) I wasted 20 or 30 pods trying to make it work, lost losts of time calling Amazon about it. To their credit I got a refund for the machine but I asked for compensation for all the lost pods and they idnore my request several times then finally said no. Not good and the level I expected of Amazon. It's currently sat outside in a box yet again waiting to be collected. It even looks cheap outside. DON'T BUY!
