I have had my 4300 now for over 3 years…..best machine I have bought. Everyone in the family uses it daily. Easy to clean and maintain. Zero issues so far. Would I recommend this…..110% i would. Thanks Philips.
What a great video & review. Erin, you have a superb reviewing style. Direct, to the point, without any waffling. You always keep it about the product, and stsy on point. Very well done.. once again, i watched..enjoyed..and learned from 😀
This is my 2nd Keurig coffee maker of this model. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf The first worked fine for more than 2 years, and I could still get a decent cup of coffee out of it if I fiddled with it when I decided to replace it. The problem I had with my first unit was this: When attempting to brew a cup of coffee, the unit would either keep brewing until the coffee was undrinkable or it would not run long enough and the coffee produced was way too strong. I cleaned the unit as best I could but it did not help. So in the end it was just too much trouble to get a good cup of coffee out of it, so I decided to replace it with a new one, which has been working great since I unpacked it.
5:04 the machine always starts of watery but after 10 coffees or so its much better after the blades have autoadjusted. In your video at 7:41 you can see that your pucks dont look that healthy yet. the weakpoint is the slightly burned tasting semiwarm coffee (rather than hot) and the shit milk frother which makes way too bubbly foam.
everyone,,,remove the water tank, remove brew group, lubricant the two little o-rings you see inside, and also lubricant the brew group's o-ring as you can see visible ...they are not lubricant as delivered and because they are not lubricant, they will be very very easily ripped apart after uses!! I did mine and I confirmed they weren't lubricant when I checked them..Lubricant them otherwise they will be ripped aparts and you need to buy the o-ring replacement!
Great review I too purchased this and I’m loving it, I am ready to change the grinder setting to fine, maybe dumb Q, which way to turn for stronger coffee, I tried to the right but seems to not work😢
Bought this model but I'm finding my pucks come out all soggy and there is always water in the drip tray when I use a cup to collect the water from machine
Love your style of video. I made a video about my Jura Z6 it’s a beautiful machine but I wonder how MUCH better it is vs Something like this. Keep up the good work!
We bought this machine a year ago and we are returning it. We loved it for the first 9 months now it makes terrible coffee no matter the cleaning or adjusting. I don’t want to keep spending 15-20 a bag of cofffee to dump out just to keep trying to figure it out.
Hello Erin, thanks for the review video and bought one and my wife and I are enjoying the coffee. One question, do you know what the red arm with a red cone at the end located the drip tray ? Never mind , I just found out it works like float..it .rises when the drip tray is full of water red cone sticks out of the tray
Hey Erin, thanks for your review video! Follow-up question regarding the temperature; have you left yours on the medium setting? I've read where others have said they "needed" to set it to high to get a better tasting cup...
They have them in stock now. I got one with a dented box for a lower price, Amazon does this a lot since items that come in large boxes get box damage easily. When buying something for myself I could care less if the outer box has a dent, since I will just be discarding the box anyway.
Wonderful video! One question; why is the space where the coffee pucks are stored after brewing filling with water? The brewed grinds are soggy and difficult to remove. Other videos have shown the area to be dry. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks Erin! I’ve been on the fence about this machine but I think your review helped a lot. I usually drink a filter black coffee in the morning- how is the coffee option comparable? Would you recommend it over a filter machine? Or would you get similar results?
I guess it depends how you like your coffee. I think it makes just fine black coffee, but I do like drip coffee using a cone filter. And since I already have a machine that does that I stick to using that for the drip coffee, and a machine like this for the Espresso based drinks.
@@ErinLawrenceTV I ended up buying it and i don't regret it at all, its such an amazing machine, it took a few adjustments to get the coffee taste I like but even the black coffee option I love. No clean up, no coffee grounds everywhere, this is an incredible machine
Trying to get my 4300 to work.... it has a whimpy outflow of coffee... for a "coffee" maybe a tablespoon with the highest setting....?? And, the coffee is not really hot. Put it to high.... getting frustrated.....
Philips EP5144/70 is really sucks. I just bought that machine and have a software problem in Turkey. I cannot install aquaclean filter and philips is not helping and protecting their machine in here. Too bad for them.
brother since u have your warranty with you they should repair it as they always do. ı have go my 2200 model which ı got from the Media market. ı am really enjoying the machıne
buy this if you want the smallest cups of coffee you have ever seen, i live in america and we like large cups, if i lived in europe, cuba or italy than sure

Wow, thank you so much!
@@ErinLawrenceTV your welcome.
Excellent review. My Pasquini Livietta has finally made it final drink and your review for finding the next machine has been extremely beneficial.
Thanks for watching Christopher.
@@ErinLawrenceTV We purchased this machine, and it has been an excellent replacement to our older machine. Thank you. Your review was spot-on.

+ 1 for using Stumptown Roasters beans!

Good tip, but O-rings about about $1, if that.
Hey! what did u use to lubricate them? thank you in advance!
Yeah what did you guys use?
O-ring lube
Great review, thank you. I've been considering getting one of these and your review has helped me decide to go for it.
Great to hear!
Great review I too purchased this and I’m loving it, I am ready to change the grinder setting to fine, maybe dumb Q, which way to turn for stronger coffee, I tried to the right but seems to not work😢
Nice review, you made me lol when you said "crappy tasting water"😅
LOL!
5400 has a traveler setting to make larger coffee, any easy way to do this with the 4300?
Bought this model but I'm finding my pucks come out all soggy and there is always water in the drip tray when I use a cup to collect the water from machine
Thank you, great review! I’ve been looking at many for a few days and eying off the 4300. I’m ordering one today 😁 no more pods for me and landfill…
Glad I could help!
Great review, i there is just only one Big problem, there aren’t available anywhere right now
Oh no!
Can you review the 5400

Hmm 🤔 very tamping ☕ coffee maker
Great review Erin 😃
Great detailed review. Thanks. I WISH you could buy it for $1000 CDN. Amazon isn't even stocking it right now.
Too bad!

I think I shall sell one of the paintings in the conservatory and have the butler purchase one.
You have multiple $1000 paintings? That's not very valuable for a painting, especially for someone with a butler.
I'm sold. Thanks for the video 👍
No problem 👍
Did the machine on the left side spray an outside mist in the air when getting hot or filtering?
Wonderful video! One question; why is the space where the coffee pucks are stored after brewing filling with water? The brewed grinds are soggy and difficult to remove. Other videos have shown the area to be dry. Am I doing something wrong?
🙏 thank you. Was not a fan of my Nespresso pods. Most were bitter.
Sorry to hear that, and thank you for watching.
Thanks Erin
Any time!
Great video, could you test the Philips 4500?
I am dying to! Haven’t been able to get my hands on one yet.
Hi! I loved your video and ordered a machine!! However do you know if you can plug it into the standard wall outlet? Does it need more power?
Hi Mindy… Yes it just used as a standard wall outlet.
Just got it for about $700 plus tax. Excited to finally ditch Keurg pods and nespresso
Enjoy!
So helpful! Thank you

😕😣
Unfortunately it seems like Canada is the only place in the world with stock, everywhere else it's out of stock / 1-2 months back order 😫
Oh no, that's terrible! :(
Love this review! Thanks a latte. But I do have a question: have you tried regular "coffee?" I'm curious how that tastes...
Thanks for the nice review. Can you let me know if it's possible to get a 10 or 12 oz cup of coffee made with this machine?
I wish I could, but as you saw in the video, it wouldn't make me a single cup.
Are you keeping it?
Philips EP5144/70 is really sucks. I just bought that machine and have a software problem in Turkey. I cannot install aquaclean filter and philips is not helping and protecting their machine in here. Too bad for them.
That's terrible, sorry to hear.
@@ErinLawrenceTV thank you

Ha, so true!
Buy a big cup with a wide cup mouth then brew x2 cup into it ,
you are amazing 🙂
Thank you!
Milk dispenser is broke/ no more milk steam/ after 2 years of use, this is for me the weak point in the machine
Did the machine on the left side spray an outside mist?
Coffee is very watery when you're used to double expresso every morning. Just saying.
It looks messy. I need a quick cup in the morning. I will stick with my Nespresso. Good review. Thanks Erin.
Thanks for watching Bill ! 😃😃😃
Messy? Does your Nespresso make milk based drinks? Nespresso is also about 4x the cost per cup. Enjoy.
I ditched my nespresso for this machine, takes about the same amount of time to brew. Costs me so much less for supplies!
Looks like these machines only brew very small amounts of coffee
Do you mean like a shot of espresso?
