- ✓2024 redesign added a touchscreen and five more drinks over the old dial model
- ✓Professional Aroma Grinder and P.E.P. extraction match Jura's bigger machines
- ✓Striking design with the crystal diamond water tank looks great on a counter
- ✗Small 37 oz tank and 4.4 oz hopper mean constant refilling for households
- ✗$1,999 is close to the larger E8 which has bigger capacities

- ✗No user-adjustable brew temperature beyond two levels
Philips Cafe Aromis 8000
