Remember them being - attention from third-party pads

With the twist came at us now the third Senseo machine in the house.
The first Senseo, a light blue of the very first generation, making the student apartment from our son still good service and functioning properly. Their processing was certainly the highest quality.
Then we bought a new Senseo, it was built already significantly more (lightweight) plastic. For this there were unfortunately soon a recall why they wude replaced. This worked well, but unfortunately it was already after 2.5 years on their minds (planned obsolescence? Or just high wear ... you do not know).

Although we were of little disappointed we attacked ultimately back to a Senseo, as we do not this madness with Plastiktabs (as if there were not enough plastic trash!) Want to support, the fully automatic are ultimately still error-prone, and the Senseo coffee taste but to lengths is better than conventional filter coffee.

So we ordered the Twist, although me the word "touch buttons" something suspicious made.

I built on the Senseo and realized how easy it is yet. Everything is made of very light plastic. Practically, the height-adjustable outlet, but this has little lateral play and everything rattles a bit, but this is to be avoided in plastic ever. Too bad that Philips follows the plastic trend. At least, it is, according to the packet, recycled plastic. After all.

With us a lot of coffee is drunk, so the twist could prove equal to the "acid test". We were pleasantly surprised. Approximately after one minute you have fresh, fragrant coffee. A big advantage is the adjustable coffee strength (strength espresso with a little water or normal cup with classical strength) as well as the function that you have before the machine is brühfertig can press the start button. Once the water is hot enough, they then start by itself the brewing process. Very handy in the morning, as you can in the meantime, set the table, etc.
The Senseo even tells you when it needs descaling!

NOTE: If, no original Senseo pads, then you should make sure to position them always very exact in the filter holder, so that the sleeve is flush with the edge and no water can flow laterally underneath. Otherwise there will be diluted broth !!! We took a long time to figure it out. This is planned by Senseo so, the filter holder looks different than in older Senseo machines. He is a little lower, thus facilitating While inserting, however, the edge a few millimeters wider and therefore although tailored to the Senseo pads, but it requires just in third-party pads accurate insertion.

Also a problem that Philips has apparently still not noticed is that the brewing process can be started even with the door open, so that about 70 ° C hot water rausschießt above. This vulnerability has disturbed us with previous models. It is technically a simple circuit easy to implement. Tagged children: keep exactly why the machine out of reach of small children better!

Whether the machine long the usage withstand during processing with us, since I am rather suspicious. But nowadays that's unfortunately not uncommon in electrical appliances. Whether cars or printer, everything is designed so that it does not last forever.

I summarize:

POSITIVE
+ Proven brewing system
+ Schnellle Preparation time
+ Noise in order
+ Good coffee when operated properly
+ Adjustable coffee strength
+ Start button can be pressed before Brühbereitschaft
+ Height-adjustable outlet
+ Descaling
+ Compostable Pads

NEUTRAL
o filter holder; on the one hand easier to position, somewhat problematic in third-party pads !!!

NEGATIVE
-When Inaccurate handling of third-party coffee tastes watery Pads
Processing -> much plastic
-Brühsystem Can start even with the door open -> security risk!
-something fummeliger water tank
