What we like about Saeco GranAroma SM6585/00

  • Wide selection of up to 16 pre-programmed coffee recipes
  • High level of drink customisation including temperature, volume, and milk foam thickness
  • Ability to brew two milk-based beverages simultaneously using LatteDuo
  • Stores up to 6 customisable user profiles for quick access to saved recipes
  • HygieSteam automatic steam cleaning system makes maintaining the milk tube easy
  • Relatively quiet operation compared to older or lower-end models
  • Delivers rich coffee flavour and dense, smooth milk foam

What we don't like about Saeco GranAroma SM6585/00

  • Plastic casing material feels less durable than premium full stainless steel alternatives
  • The massive number of settings and menus can be initially complex for some users
  • Requires ongoing costs due to the proprietary AquaClean filter system
  • External milk hose setup requires extra manual steps for storage compared to integrated carafes
  • The power plug design is bulky and can block adjacent outlets on multi-socket panels
  • Some users reported that default temperature and coffee strength settings require fine-tuning to achieve optimal heat and boldness

Verdict

The Saeco GranAroma SM6585/00 is a fully automatic espresso machine featuring a 15-bar pump, a 1500W boiler, a 1.8-litre water tank, and a 300g bean hopper. It integrates a 12-step adjustable ceramic grinder, a colour TFT touch display, and the CoffeeMaestro menu to easily customize coffee strength, temperature, and volume across 16 different preprogrammed beverages. Main advantages include its 6 user profiles, the LatteDuo system for brewing two milk-based drinks simultaneously, and an automated HygieSteam cleaning cycle. However, the machine's primary casing is made of plastic rather than full stainless steel, and the external milk tube arrangement requires more structural maintenance than self-contained carafe models.
