Miele 6360 milk perfection owner. Simple math for me. Wife and I spent enough at coffee shops to justify the purchase and the result has been that we virtually never buy coffee out anymore. Solid machine. We are 3.5 years in and it runs flawlessly. Would buy it again if doing it over.
Miele CM63 worth every penny.
I picked up the Miele CM6360 last year because I only wanted Costco for this reason.
I bought a Miele CM6360 last year and it does everything. It has user profiles, individual drink profiles within the user profiles, so that it’ll consistently pour you the coffee that you want. If there was a way for it to satisfy me sexually, I don’t think I’d ever leave the kitchen! 😂
I have a Miele CM6350 bean to cup machine. Was very expensive but it does a good job for our several coffee drinkers. The main downsides are that its water tank is a bit on the small side, it spends a lot of its time whirring and rinsing itself (like an Epson inkjet printer) and the official cleaning and maintenance consumables aren't cheap.
Bought a Miele CM6360. It rocks.
You know, in parameters settings that you can change temperature. I find maintenance easy. Takes a few minutes daily. A few more minutes weekly. And the periodic maintenance (milk system, descaling, brew unit) you do have to initiate, and then they run on their own. As an owner of super-automatic machines for over 20 years the Miele is hands above my previous machines (Gaggia, Capresso-Jura, Jura). I like that the Miele is a bit old school with its interface. Just an opinion!
Bought a Miele CM6360. It rocks. Look at professional reviews. It’s a great machine
I've had built in Miele coffee machines since 2005, when I moved to a condo I bought the countertop version in 2025. In two decades the machines were flawless, never having an issue and making exceptional coffee every time. I like all the options these days and in a flat white phase.
