Molly-Mae Hague’s new documentary Molly-Mae: Behind it All comes to Amazon Prime Video on January 17, and what better way to watch the show than with a steaming hot cuppa from one of the celeb’s favourite coffee machines? The former Love Island star posted a Smeg coffee machine on her Instagram stories a couple of years back that’s still available at Amazon.
You’ll have to act fast if you want to add the gadget to your kitchen, though, as it’s currently low stock on Amazon and has been withdrawn from the Smeg website. The online giant is offering Molly-Mae’s exact model and colourway of the Smeg Bean to Cup Coffee Machine for £499.99, which is cheaper than its original retail price of £699.95 on the Smeg website.
The taupe-coloured coffee machine promises to deliver coffees just like those from your favourite independent coffee shop. It’s selling quickly so in fear of it selling out, there’s another deal worth looking at – Amazon’s price drop on the trendy DeLonghi Stilosa machine.
As the name suggests, you can grind your own coffee beans for the freshest possible brew, with options including black coffee, Espresso, Americano, Ristretto coffee, cappuccinos and latte macchiato.
As previously reported on the Mirror, some Amazon customers have even claimed it makes ‘coffee better than most high street coffee shops’. One satisfied customer wrote: “It makes gorgeous coffee and the steamer is good to use when making hot chocolate too.”
A second said: “Love this machine, quality coffee and easy to use.” Another added: “Works beautifully. Great coffee. Ease to use. Ease functionality. Ease to clean. Perfect.”
“This is a very good coffee machine,” someone else shared wrote. “I have tried many bean-to-cup machines, De longhi, Melitta, Sage. The milk was too cold in the first two machines and it was too difficult using the sage, plus it didn’t fit under my cupboard, and the milk wand got blocked. This machine is a small size, fairly quiet, the milk can be heated to a good temperature, and the coffee is quick and easy to make. The taste of a latte is very good.”
Fancy free takeaway delivery? Access to Deliveroo Plus is one of a host of advantages of Amazon Prime membership, including exclusive Prime Day discounts and perks on Hello Fresh, music, books and Prime Video. Usually £8.99 a month, you can now get a 30-day free trial to get access to the latest deals.
Sadly not every Amazon customer was left impressed with the Smeg coffee machine, as one person noted: “After a couple of uses the buttons got stuck and won’t work.” Someone else explained: “Leaks all over the worktop. When it makes coffee the liquid comes out the side of the nozzle quite messily, rather than the intended spout downwards.”
If you fancy channelling Molly-Mae and adding the Smeg Bean to Cup Coffee Machine to your kitchen, you can purchase it here while stocks last. There are similar gadgets on the market, including the Philips 5400 LatteGo priced at £619.99. If you’re after a more budget-friendly option, the De’Longhi Magnifica Start Bean to Cup is currently on sale at Argos for £300.
