Third-party reviews

What we like about Philips HD7459/20

  • 15 cups in one brew suits a family or a group.
  • The 1.2 L tank means fewer refills for a big brew.
  • A timer lets you start the coffee before you get up.
  • Some parts can go in the dishwasher, which saves washing up.
  • The machine switches itself off after 30 min.
  • At 1.42 kg it is easy to lift for cleaning.

What we don't like about Philips HD7459/20

  • Its 33 cm depth needs a wide spot on the counter.
  • The carafe is not insulated, so coffee stays hot only on the warming plate.
  • The water tank cannot be removed, so you fill it in place.
  • There is no automatic cleaning, so cleaning is a manual job.
  • There is no mobile app, so it cannot be set from a phone.

Verdict

For a family that drinks coffee in big batches, the Philips HD7459/20 is worth a look. It makes up to 15 cups from a 1.2 L tank with a 1000 W heater, and a brew takes 10 min. The timer lets you start the coffee before you get up, and the display shows the settings. Some parts go in the dishwasher, and a 30 min auto shut-off turns it off if you forget. The non-slip base keeps it still while the coffee brews. The water level indicator shows how much is left. The trade-off is size: at 33 cm deep it needs a wide spot on the worktop, and the carafe is not insulated. It suits a household that makes coffee for several people and has room to spare on the counter.
