Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series or Saeco Xelsis Deluxe?

What actually differs between the Philips Café Aromis 8000 Series and the Saeco Xelsis Deluxe, and what that means for who you are.

What differs

  • There is barely anything between them on price, so you can leave that out of it.
  • Both are the same kind of machine, a bean-to-cup, so they work the same way.
  • Both have a built-in grinder, so you do not need to buy one.
  • Milk: the Café Aromis 8000 Series does it with a LatteGo jug, no tubes; the Xelsis Deluxe with a tube into a carton or container.
  • Cleaning the Café Aromis 8000 Series's milk system: after every use the Clean LatteGo Pro programme, then take the jug off and rinse it under the tap or put it in the dishwasher.
  • Cleaning the Xelsis Deluxe's milk system: an automatic burst of steam after every milk drink, the HygieSteam programme every day, the frother and the milk jug apart every week and a deep clean with Philips milk cleaner every month.
  • The Café Aromis 8000 Series has 32 more recipes on the menu.
