Philips L'OR Barista Sublime Capsule Coffee Machine, Double Shot, 1 or 2 Cups, Full Coffee Menu, Black (LM9012/60)

My only comparison is with the Nespresso Inissia -- the basic Nespresso machine -- so bear that in mind. At £49 against a recommended retail price of £109.99 this is an absolute steal. (Yes, I KNOW all about online discounting, but I still thought it worth mentioning.) Previously I had two Nespresso Inissia machines, and they lasted an average of just three years each. I think I was unlucky, but even so... I've had my L'OR machine only a couple of days, and already I love it. Excellent coffee, good design, simple to use. Just a couple of points by way of clarification rather than criticism: 1. There are two nozzles. Put your mug in the middle, because the coffee comes from both. They're useful if you have a guest: put one mug under each nozzle. 2. If, like me, you're the geekish sort who measures the amount of water needed, you may find that the pouring terminates in the flashing of whichever button you've pressed. This is said to indicate that you're out of water, but it also happens when there's only a little left in the reservoir, so put in some extra. I don't know how long this machine will be selling at £49, so I'd grab one fast.

I love it! Got it in the prime day deal for 49.99! Chuffed! Mine arrived in perfect condition and they also include a box of 9 different capsules to try. Easy to set up. Coffee takes about 30 seconds to make (an espresso). Also tried the lungo with the big pods and these make basically a normal size cup of coffee which is good. The coffee pods taste really rich and flavorsome so much so that I bought a load more different L'Or ones on their website. The machine also comes with a £20 off £50 for the L'Or website once you register your machine on their website plus they have other discounts. Worked out really well, ended up ordering 120 pods for about 28 quid of different flavours making it about 23p a pod. Seen a few reviews about it breaking less than a year after but obviously I cannot comment on that as of yet as mine works perfectly at the moment. So excited! 😊 P.s it takes other brand pods and Nespresso pods too (the normal ones). Already tried with some decaf lavazza ones and they worked fine too.

Super price and super machine. Takes any make pods Great not huge fits in nicely

Received in good delivery,it is very easy to use ,especially good and fast ,convenience for a breakfast coffee,and anytime.Lor coffee pods are economic to buy,quality although not excellent buy good enough.They seems not 100 % arabica bean used,just robusta and arabica.I seek now to Lavazza 100% arabica bean.The machine is well made ，sturdy and beautiful design outlook.Just hope Lor offer more 100% arabica bean pods.

I did a lot of research in this purchase as I really wanted a bean to mug machine but concluded my coffee habit and the price cannot justify this. On researching the pod machines I concluded the L'OR Barista pod machine was the best offering. It has met my expectation for pod coffee and this has been excellent. Bought this L'OR Barista machine to replace my Lavazza Modo Mio machine. I ruled out Lavazza pod mechanism due to their Eco Pods are not consistent in working compared to the foil pods. I had several issues with the Lavazza Eco Pods and I reported this to Lavazza based on my own experience. On review you can find lots of people reporting the same issue with the Lavazza Eco pods in forums. 1) The double size coffee pods (XXL pods) are a complete winner. How this did not come about sooner? 2) The L'OR Barista Sublime machine is compatible with the Nespresso original coffee pods which has the largest selection of pods compared to any other maker period. There are loads of different coffees. You'll find Nespresso original pods in most supermarkets too. ***Take note the L'OR Barista Sublime does not work with Nespresso Vertua pods as these are only for Nespresso Vertua machines (patented). I didn't bother with Nespresso Vertua machine as Nespresso original pods are everywhere, largest variety in coffee and the original mechanism for coffee dispensing is proven over many more years. To summarise you get all the Nespresso original pod offering as well as the L'OR branded pods with the brilliant 'XXL' pod size too. Don't bother buying a Nespresso machine (or any other pod machine)! 3) You have 3 (Ristretto, Expresso and Lungo) default serving sizing of coffee which will cater for your needs. You can manually set the amount of coffee that is dispensed if you need to. Between the 3 sizes this will cater for most peoples need. Lungo size does exist! See image attached for ML servings. 4) You can get Lavazza coffee in Nespresso original pods. I am not missing my Lavazza coffee as much with the L'OR coffee offering. The XXL pod offering is so good! 5) The mechanism to place pods in to get coffee is very simple and quick. 6) The machine is made by Phillips, a decent manufacturer brand, that has been around for over a century. Now used for over a month now and it has been great. The L'OR coffee brand offers a lot of discounts for owners too and I have used this once and got new coffee in 2 days. Again great selection of coffee.

Brilliant compact coffee machine. Perfect for making espressos. I usually use a handheld milk frother to froth some warm milk and pour into my espresso to make the perfect latte. Very easy to use and clean. Coffee comes out a good temperature.

Hubby loves this,this is our 2nd one,first one lasted just over 1yrs,started leaking from o ring in waterwell.Amazon refunded us purchase price so we ordered the same.He can have extra strong coffee in a mug or 2 cups at the same time. We get our pods through Amazon as well at a much cheaper rate than supermarket

Great machine so far. Awaiting the arrival of the double pods.

I liked everything about this product, I also brought one for my daughter

The pods are great flavours, the machine works great and was very quick delivery .if I only had one thing to say is that a little more packaging around the product in box would be good .

Great design, heats quickly
