Home Coffee Machines Ltd Opiniones 

They shipped the original manufacturer item, many company will ship you a 3rd party item. I will buy again for Home Coffee Machines Ltd.

Despite a mess up by the couriers, I found that Ciaran was extemely helpful right through the process, and kept me in the loop as they got it sorted in time for Christmas.

I recently bought a new coffee machine from Homecoffeemachines. The delivery followed a few days after purchase, safely packaged for transit on a small pallet. Any questions I had before and after the purchase were answered promptly, it was a pleasure to deal with them.

I had a problem with a leak in my coffee machine, I engaged with Home Coffee Machines Ltd and they were absolute fantastic. The customer service was outstanding with regular communication from Angel right the way through the repair journey to ensure I was kept informed. I now have my coffee machine back working perfectly. Excellent job, I would highly recommend Home Coffee Machines Ltd for any machine repair.

Extremely poor service and shockingly rude staff. Any attempt to resolve an issue was met with attitude rather than help. I won’t be ordering here again.

These guys will go above and beyond if your coffee machine needs repair. My machine needed repair and that's what I got. 5 star customer service and expertise.
I know I'll have peace of mind in case something goes wrong, they'll sort me out.

You learn a lot about a company by the way they treat their customers, especially when something unexpected comes up.

Home Coffee Machines ignore all requests for support post sale, nobody took ownership and sorted out the problem.

Terrible customer service.

i decided to upgrade from a Sage Barrista express to the Lelit. After a few phone calls to Ciaran and team with issues i had with the Sage, i decided to upgrade. I was advised to look at a Profitec and Lelit. After a few hours on youtube and Redit Ciaran was right on all what he said about both. I went with the Lelit Elizabeth. After a week using my new toy its clear to see the upgrade i have. The quality of the machine is top draw and also the taste and quality of the espresso has improved on my previous machine capability. i look forward to many years with this machine.

I’m based in Singapore so I was a little worried about ordering parts from across the globe at first, however the experience was 10/10. Thanks Ciaran for reaching out and communicating clearly on delivery schedules. The Gicar box for the legit Mara x arrived safely and worked perfectly. Great service, great parts, and definitely recommend.

Really genuine company...2nd time dealing with them for the service of my Sage barista coffee machine .. they received my machine confirmed they received it ...sent me a quote for the service....completed the service and repacked and sent my machine back to me. definitely recommend for coffee lovers with a home machine .

You learn a lot about a company by the way they treat their customers when something unexpected comes up.
We had a shipping problem (nothing to do with Home Coffee Machines). I called Home Coffee Machines for help and Ciaran took ownership and sorted out the shipping problem immediately.
Outstanding customer service.

I recently bought my espresso machine from Home Coffee Machines Ltd and couldn’t be happier. Ciaran was a pleasure to deal with, excellent communication from order to delivery, and the machine arrived quickly and perfectly packed.

The price was very competitive, and they even included some cleaning gear as a nice bonus. It’s clear they genuinely care about their customers and love what they do.

The machine looks great in the kitchen, and the first shots (and cappuccinos!) were spot on. I’d highly recommend Home Coffee Machines to anyone looking for quality products and real customer service.

Thanks again, Ciaran. I’ll be enjoying many coffees thanks to you!

Purchased my coffee machine from Ciaran and I buy all my coffee from him too. He is brilliant to deal with - highly recommend Home Coffee Machines Ltd if you’re looking for advice in choosing the right coffee machine. His after sales service is unbeatable and he is always available to offer advice. Highly recommend.

I finally took the plunge and purchased a Profitec Drive Pro 700 and Eureka Mignon Specialita Grinder from HomeCoffeeMachines.ie. The pre-sales customer service via Live Chat was actually very helpful. After some back and forth, I committed to the purchase and waited patiently for delivery.

Upon receiving the package, I noticed that the outer shipping box had already been opened and resealed. When lifting the box by its handles, I could tell that the internal packaging had been disturbed, as I could not fully insert my hand through one handle. I reported this to Live Chat and was told, “the warehouse sometimes opens them to put smaller items inside,” and reassured me that it was not a problem, and that I should open the machine.

Upon inspection, I immediately observed multiple components showing clear signs of prior use or potentially poor QC. Here is a detailed summary of the issues I reported and how they were handled:

• Outer box resealed: Dismissed as “warehouse sometimes open boxes.”
• Drip tray scratched front and back: Offered partial replacement only, which would not arrive for several weeks.
• Group head showing wear/overtightening marks: Ignored; significance denied, though the internal wear was consistent with repeated use.
• Flow-control valve leaking: Ignored despite clear video evidence.
• Missing pump transport bolt: Ignored entirely; should have ensured safe shipping.
• Copper fitting scuffed and front bolts gouged: Ignored.
• PID not at factory defaults: Ignored; calibration inconsistent with factory settings.
• Accessories (blind basket, portafilter) showing wear: Ignored.

None of these points received a credible or complete remedy. Instead of acknowledging mistakes, I was met with excuses, sarcasm, and intimidation. Each interaction reinforced a dismissive and defensive attitude that made resolution increasingly difficult.

Rather than replacing the unit outright—which I had clearly conveyed was my desired remedy—the seller insisted on “working through the issues one by one,” as if this were a repair job. Every time I pressed for proper resolution, he avoided responsibility.

When I requested that communications remain in writing rather than phone calls (due to working full time during the day), the seller’s tone became increasingly defensive. He ignored my concerns and made a particularly belligerent remark after I sent several photos:

“Have you been out with your magnifying glass again?”

Over time, the correspondence escalated further; he began accusing me of fabricating “fake reviews,” claimed he could trace my IP address, and threatened to involve both a solicitor and the German police without any clear cause.

Unfortunately, this does not appear to be an isolated case. There are threads on Reddit and coffee forums describing similar experiences, notably one post in which a buyer of a “brand-new” Profitec Pro 700 Drive received a blemished unit and was treated similarly.

After claims of “fake reviews,” I visited Trustpilot and other platforms to see what was being referenced. At the time of writing, 25 out of 53 reviews specifically mention the same staff member and their glowing conduct. While this does not prove intent, the repetition is unusual and noteworthy for prospective customers, especially if they value transparency and authentic consumer experiences.

Buying a premium espresso machine should be an exciting experience. In my case, it became a protracted dispute involving dismissive and hostile behaviour from the seller, and eventually threats directed at me. Even after the seller agreed to accept the return, the collection was scheduled on a day I had clearly stated I was unavailable. His response was:

“Well, it’s booked now,” followed by, “I’m also going away for a few weeks, so it will have to wait.”

He also made comments about the cost of shipping machines being expensive, as if this were the customer’s responsibility.

Ultimately, the product was not provided as advertised, the manufacturer confirmed it should not have left the factory in that state, and the retailer’s response was defensive to the point of aggression. Based on my understanding of consumer law, several aspects of this experience may represent potential concerns.

To anyone considering a purchase from this company: document everything. Photograph the box before and after opening it, record your unboxing, and insist on written responses for any issues you encounter. Do not accept phone calls where you may be persuaded to accept an unacceptable quality standard.

My final recommendation is to spend a little more and buy from a reputable dealer; it could save you significant time, stress, and uncertainty.

Outstanding service, superfast shipping, rapid response from live chat. And an amazing product for a competition busting price. I will definitely be buying from these guys again!

Great support and guidance to find the right fix to my Sage coffee machine.
The team was extremely helpful, responsive and helped me straight away after i had ordered a wrong part in getting the right one sent on priority.

Will surely come here again

Fantastic customer service. I have been using this company for many years and they are wonderful. Great for repairs, service and troubleshooting. Thank you Ciaran and team

I bought a coffee machine in February through this website, placing a pre-order. After a long wait, we received a defective and non-functional machine. We started a return using a UPS label provided by the seller.

Unfortunately, the shipment was never properly completed: the tracking stopped updating and it’s unclear whether the machine was lost or never delivered back to the seller. I was told I’d receive a refund once UPS confirmed the loss – but that’s when the problems really began.

After nearly 100 emails and months of waiting, the seller completely stopped responding. Their live chat support also began ignoring my messages, offering no updates or assistance.

At this point, I’ve lost almost €3000 and haven’t heard anything back.
Beyond the financial loss, it’s incredibly frustrating to be met with total silence.
I strongly advise against buying from this store – if anything goes wrong, you will be completely ignored.

Fantastic service and choice of spare parts. I ordered a milk sensor for our sage coffee machine giving us an arrow of er05. I followed the video and got it all fixed very quickly. Fantastic delivery and can't fault this company in any way. Our coffee machine is working again and we saved a ton of money in repairs from an engineer.
