Third-party reviews

What we like about Philips Grind & Brew HD7888/01

  • The built-in grinder means fresh coffee without a second gadget.
  • At 1.01 kg it is easy to move for cleaning.
  • Adjustable keep-warm time lets you choose how long the carafe stays warm.
  • Aroma strength control lets you pick a milder or stronger cup.
  • The drip stop saves a spill if you lift the carafe early.
  • Timer and display help you set up the morning.

What we don't like about Philips Grind & Brew HD7888/01

  • Its 48.5 cm height and 32.7 cm depth take up a lot of counter space.
  • Dishwasher is not an option, so the parts need washing by hand.
  • The carafe is not insulated, so the warming plate has to keep the coffee hot.
  • The water tank cannot be removed, so you fill it in place.
  • There is no automatic cleaning and no cleaning reminder.

Verdict

Someone who wants fresh coffee each morning will like the Philips Grind & Brew HD7888/01. Its built-in grinder means the beans go in and the coffee comes out, with no second gadget. The 1.25 L tank makes 10 cups, and the aroma strength control lets you pick a milder or stronger cup. The drip stop saves a spill if you lift the carafe early. A timer, a display and an adjustable keep-warm time give you control over the morning. At 1.01 kg it is light enough to shift around the counter, which is handy when you clean it. The trade-off is space: at 48.5 cm tall and 32.7 cm deep, it needs a spot of its own on the worktop. It suits a serious coffee drinker who is happy with a large machine on the counter.
