Third-party reviews

What we like about BEEM FRESH-AROMA-PERFECT Superior

  • High-precision stainless steel conical grinder with 28 adjustable levels
  • Intelligent water system only takes the exact amount of water needed for the selected cups
  • Convenient 24-hour programmable timer for waking up to fresh coffee
  • Eco-friendly permanent gold filter removes the need for paper filters
  • Robust build quality with a premium stainless steel front design
  • Aroma-preserving airtight rubber seal and darkened lid on the 200g bean compartment
  • Keeps coffee at an ideal hot temperature via the integrated hotplate
  • Highly versatile with options to use either fresh whole beans or pre-ground coffee

What we don't like about BEEM FRESH-AROMA-PERFECT Superior

  • Grinder noise level can be quite loud during operation
  • The swinging filter holder can jam when the glass jug is inside the machine
  • The filter holder springs open too aggressively if the carafe is removed
  • Drip-stop mechanism occasionally lets a drop fall onto the heating plate
  • Water tank is built-in and awkwardly positioned at the back, making refills less convenient
  • The overall footprint is somewhat bulky and klobig (clunky) on small countertops
  • Interface design feels slightly old-fashioned, lacking a standard or clear On/Off button

Verdict

The BEEM FRESH-AROMA-PERFECT Superior is a 1050-watt American drip coffee machine featuring a built-in hardened high-speed steel conical burr grinder with 28 precise grind settings, a 1.5-liter water tank, and a 1.5-liter glass carafe capable of brewing up to 12 cups. Key characteristics and pros include automatic coffee-to-water dosing, a programmable 24-hour digital timer, an integrated activated carbon water filter, and a motorized, button-activated swing-out filter compartment equipped with a washable permanent gold filter. However, major cons include its bulky, space-consuming footprint that may not fit comfortably under low kitchen cupboards, and a somewhat dated, unexciting LCD screen interface.
