This wasn't cheap, but compared to superautos available say 5-10 years ago (or less) it is way cheaper, and less complicated / easier to clean & fix, and it does everything all in one go. The drinks might be slightly less good, but our fam is more than happy with this thing.
The grinder on the machine (and probably similar models) is kind of loud. I would see if you can see some videos of it on YouTube to see how loud it is if something like that could be a deal breaker for you.
They haven't released a new version in some time. They released a new version of the 3200 which has an ice coffee feature while this one does not. So I imagine that they're either going to refresh this version to add Ice Coffee or will likely add a new version.

Why would you get rid of that brand and replace it with Philips - manufacturer of many things in the US I suspect most known for toothbrushes and now mediocre TV's.
Regardless it does look like Saeco just released a new top of the line machine (Xelsis) in Europe , so maybe they are keeping Saeco for the high end machines.
and yes, I almost bought an Xelsis due to the quality and when you search online (for sale here in the US) you will see the following "Philips Saeco Xelsis...." in the product name.
I'm in the Jura camp, and so far my Jura J9.3 from 2012(?) is still going strong!
Not yet. It's been 5 days
Personally I use these for the espresso availability and do other things manually so even a 2200 works.
Helps avoid the dependency on these machines as one you get used to it, it's hard to go back from 1 touch mechanism.
When I spoke with CS yesterday, they told me they were inundated with orders because of the promotion. Ordered last Thursday, and was just marked for shipping today with delivery set for tomorrow. (Remember weekends don't count as business days).
It wasn't an official shipping update from Philips, but since I have UPS email notifications on, I got an update from "KENCO C/O VERSUNI". Which a quick Google search says it's Philips-related.
Am I doing this right? Haha, I'm very new to the espresso game.

Edit: still. no. refund. Worst customer service.

That'd be awful. They said it's queued for a refund and they still have 3 days to issue it 🙄. I'll call yet again on Tuesday or Wednesday and if no refund by then I'll just submit a dispute with my bank.

Side note- disputing with bank as they still haven't provided a refund and have had the machine back for close to a month now (I never even accepted delivery).
