The Siemens EQ.700 Integral TQ705R03 automatic coffee maker with grinder is the main competitor of the Delonghi PrimaDonna Soul. Both want to introduce coffee to a little more advanced way to their happy owners.
You have to be really fussy to find faults with the Siemens EQ.700 Integral automatic shredder. But no one is perfect and we would have liked to be able to choose the temperature of the drink as easily as we adjust the quantity delivered or the intensity. We can also regret not being alerted when the grain bin is empty. But these are only peccadilloes in the face of a very fast machine, extremely simple to use and which also allows you to discover exotic caffeinated specialties. Siemens signs a master stroke here and the EQ.700 is a success… Integral.
