Furthermore, with a weight of 7200 g, the machine can be difficult to move or store, especially in kitchens where space is limited. Finally, with the number of adjustable settings limited to five, this may not satisfy users seeking a more in-depth customization of their coffee experience. In summary, the Philips 4000 series EP4050 is a high-performing and aesthetically pleasing coffee machine, ideal for coffee enthusiasts looking for a customizable experience. Nevertheless, some aspects such as the lack of a built-in grinder and the capacity of the tank may not suit all users.
