The Philips L'OR Barista Sublime coffee maker has been named the top choice for quality and price in a recent comparison by Rick, known online as @lesnums_bonplan. Priced at 74.99 euros at major retailers like Fnac, Boulanger, and Darty, this model stands out among 33 tested devices. It is an updated version of Philips' popular L'OR Barista, now compatible with both L'OR and Nespresso capsules. The Barista Sublime continues the success of the original, with improvements in design and performance. The Barista Sublime is praised for its ease of use, quick preheating, and quiet operation. It offers multiple coffee size options and is easy to clean. However, it has a few drawbacks, such as flashing when the water level is low (though it doesn’t stop the brewing process), dripping from the nozzles after use, and the use of aluminum capsules. These capsules, while convenient, raise environmental concerns due to their difficulty in recycling. Philips has reintroduced its capsule coffee maker with the Barista Sublime, maintaining the simplicity and efficiency of earlier models. It has become more compact and is built with higher quality materials. The machine's versatility is a major plus, as it can handle all L'OR capsule formats and Nespresso capsules. It also allows for two simultaneous coffee preparations. However, the use of aluminum capsules is a notable downside, as it poses challenges for sustainability and eco-friendliness. The Malongo Eoh ranks second in the quality-to-price comparison. It is praised for its compact design, speed, and efficiency, and it aligns with eco-friendly, circular economy principles. However, it lacks some features found in other models, such as an indicator for low water levels. It also tends to drip after brewing, which may be a minor inconvenience for some users. Despite these drawbacks, the Malongo Eoh remains a strong contender in the capsule coffee maker market.
