Philips hydration station ADD5962BK/79 unbiased review

Micro X-Clean Filtration Sparkling Water Station, Hot & Cold
At an unbeatable price point can this appliance deliver?
Sadly, no:
- 100ºC temperature is not reached, even though the manual says the temperature is measured at the heating element not at dispensing a heat loss of well over 15% is outside of tolerance
- The noise level of 65 decibel is likely too loud for most households when the cooling functionality is on
- In one batch you can only make 400 ml of soda water which serves two people at best
- The inability to adjust the drip tray makes you either always use a tall vessel or hold your container if you want to avoid splattering
Since most of the functionality is missing expectations, the only one which worth the money is the water filtration, but you can achieve that in various other ways much cheaper.
