![]() On first unveiling the L’OR Barista Sublime from its box the first thing I noticed about the plastic body was its many curves. I tested the quality of the coffee drinks produced from the different capsules and how they compared to fresh beans when using a bean-to-cup machine.Īlthough the unique selling point of the machine is the double spout, for a single-person household this didn’t really affect how I used the machine instead I focused on the coffee strengths and the performance of the machine. ![]() ![]() I tested the L’OR Barista over a month using the L’OR branded capsules and Nespresso capsules from my own Nespresso Magimix machine. Testing the L’OR Barista Sublime Coffee Machine What was the product tested for? The affordable price places the L’OR Barista Sublime at the same as the cheapest Nespresso Vertuo available at John Lewis and slightly more than A Modern Kitchen’s favourite pod machine, the Tassimo by Bosch MY WAY 2 Pod Coffee Machine. It’s also available at Argos, currently on sale at the time of writing for £50. The machine is currently on sale for £69.99 (RRP £104.99) directly from L’OR or for a bundle offer of £89 along with a selection of coffee capsules. The machine offers single or double Ristrettos, Espressos, Lungos, as well as the new and exclusive L’OR Barista XXL capsules, which contains twice the amount of coffee to make a double shot espresso, a larger coffee like those you’d get in a coffee shop, or, using the unique double spout on the coffee machine – make two drinks at the same time. It’s the first pod machine to offer compatibility with two different size capsules, something which Nespresso doesn’t offer having to choose between its standard pod machine or the Nespresso Vertuo range. However, the XXL L’OR pods promise ‘twice the amount’ of coffee, so A Modern Kitchen kept that in mind while reviewing the machine.įollow us on Pinterest and Instagram for more inspirational moments They’re also quite the timesaver but you might be lacking in that coffee buzz required to kickstart your day. However, don't forget once you’ve factored in the cost of the pods it bumps the price up.Ĭoffee pod machines are extremely popular among coffee drinkers who are looking to invest in a machine for their household but are not fussy about using beans or coffee strength. When coffee maker L’OR entered the coffee pod machine market with the L’OR Barista Sublime, a double-spouted design with an exclusive XXL capsule design, we were keen to put it to the test.Įven though it’s powered by Philips, the Barista Sublime is compatible with single-shot alternative branded pods including Nespresso, so if you’re looking to switch you won’t be stuck with unusable leftovers.Īt a starting price of £79.99, correct when writing, L’OR’s offering falls under the price bracket of a coffee pod machine which tends to be just around the £100 mark. There are endless coffee pod machines on the market to choose from and sometimes it can be overwhelming to decide which coffee machine is right for you.
