My recommendation is skip this machine even at this price.
I now own a Gaggia Accademia and a Jura E6 (at different locations). Both are excellent machines..but also 5 to 7x the price of this phillips. And my daily driver beans are Lavazza Espresso, the brown bag. Another great bean is the Whole Latte Love crema wave...at double the price.
I've also owned the Phillips. It was my second machine ever. Our very first machine was the Saeco Xsmall...which is the same/similar brew group. That cheap little Saeco was and sill is a better machine (I've kept it as a backup). Anyway, the phillips just never produced a good shot. Now, if you are mixing your espresso with milk products or sugar mixes, then any machine is going to be fine. And you can use sh!t coffee and you'll never know the difference. If you drink straight espresso shots or machiattos there is a MASSIVE difference in machines and beans. But it starts with the machine.

The only thing I'm wary of is they seem have a lot of them "like new". A lot of people bought and decided not to keep it...🤔
The biggest downside for me was the milk frother. It has that distinct overheated milk taste and there's no way to fix it.
I'd probably but this machine again if there was a similar deal on the manual steam wand version.
I can't figure out what senses this on our gaggia, it somehow measures how much powder gets in the brew group is my guess (no sensors in the beans compartment).
