Third-party reviews

What we like about Braun PurAroma KF 5105

  • The removable tank makes filling it at the sink simple.
  • The insulated carafe holds heat well after brewing.
  • The filter is permanent, so there are no paper filters to buy.
  • A cleaning reminder tells you when a clean is due.
  • At 1.5 kg, it is light to carry.
  • A small-batch setting brews a few cups without a full pot.

What we don't like about Braun PurAroma KF 5105

  • At 32 cm wide, it needs a fair stretch of counter.
  • There is no warming plate, so coffee stays hot only in the carafe.
  • At 35 cm tall, check the space under your cabinets.
  • There is no automatic cleaning, so cleaning is done by hand.
  • There is no mobile app, so it cannot be controlled from a phone.

Verdict

A couple or a single person who wants a light machine should look at the Braun PurAroma KF 5105. It weighs 1.5 kg, and the removable water tank makes filling it at the sink simple. The filter is permanent, so there are no paper filters to buy. A small-batch setting makes a few cups without a full pot, and the aroma strength control lets you choose how strong each cup is. The insulated carafe keeps coffee hot after brewing. The 16 cm depth suits a shallow counter. The trade-off is width. At 32 cm it needs a fair stretch of counter. A cleaning reminder tells you when a clean is due, and the parts are dishwasher-safe. It suits someone who wants simple everyday coffee and has room for a machine this wide.
