The device looks nice but does have a weird slant to the back. I had expected a more robust machine in terms of stainless steel material. I think it's just thin material for this price. For example, if you drop the grid of the drip tray 1 time, I feel like there is a dent in it that you would not be able to get out. I wouldn't expect that for this price. The cups warmer was disappointing. It is only a small surface on which you can put cups and no more than 2 can be heated at the same time. Unfortunately, the connection with Home connect was not successful. Looks like it can't find the network. Pairing my phone with the machine is successful, but after that the device cannot connect to the network. Other devices near the machine can make this connection. I gave up the connection with Home connect after 5 attempts. In addition, I think €500 extra for this option is not proportionate. The water tank, bean container and milk container are all easy to fill. The operation of the display and choosing a coffee variant are very easy and very fast. The espresso, ristretto, cappuccino and latte macchiato are, after adjusting my own wishes, very good and tasty. The milk foam comes out well and is firm. The hot water is also very warm, which I like, to grab a cup of tea for it. The warm milk is not a success. This one comes out lukewarm. I also like the sound of the device. It's pretty quiet when I compare it to other devices at friends and family. All in all a nice and good device but in terms of price / quality not for us.

Pros: Very tasty coffee, a lot of choice, many setting options (strong, strong + etc, also in the number of ml), in short, after a week you don't want anything else.
I would like to share my experience with making a network connection with HomeConnect. I had the same problems as some other users (couldn't find the WiFi network) and I was able to solve this by temporarily using a second router:
*) Enable tethering on an android phone that supports it: Go to Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> More -> Tethering & Hotspot > Set up Wi-Fi hotspot: enter SSID and password here and choose security type (e.g. WPA2 PSK, must be the same as on your real router) and frequency band 2 .4GHz. Then go back to the "Tethering and hotspot" screen and enable "Mobile Wi-Fi hotspot" by moving the corresponding gray button to the right so that it turns green.

Review Siemens EQ9+ S500 TI9553X1RW Home Connect
We have been in possession of the Siemens EQ9 S500 espresso machine with the so-called home-connect (WiFi) function for a few weeks now.
With its aluminum / steel color, the device is an asset to our kitchen. In addition to being a nice device to look at, it is absolutely very quiet and makes delicious coffee. The possibilities of the device are almost unprecedented. You can adjust the amount, temperature and grind to your own wishes. You can save these wishes indefinitely in your personal profile. In addition, you can make various pre-selected types of coffee via the app (WiFi) function. Of course, various choices such as cappuccino – latte – flat white – espresso – dopio, etc. can also be selected on the device itself. The milk (amount) can also be set separately.
The advantage of the milk container is that it fits in the refrigerator and is very easy to connect and clean.
Cleaning the device and topping up with water is also child's play. Another advantage is that our kettle has also been moved to the attic because the device provides tea water that is very clear due to the application of a 'Britta' filter.
The only drawback that we have encountered is that we regularly received the message to clean the 'brew group'. That was sometimes after just one cup of coffee. After a complete reset of the device, the message seems to have disappeared.
The retail price of almost 2100 euros is considerably higher than the price. Looking at the price difference with the version that does not have WiFi / HomeConnect, the extra price is huge. It is also a great device without WiFi. The disadvantage is also that, after switching on, the device first flushes the pipes with some hot water. When you make a cup of coffee remotely via WiFi, you always have a bit of 'waste water' in your coffee first. So not recommended. The only critical note is therefore that the additional cost of up to 600 euros for the HomeConnect function is not meaningful.
A disadvantage is that you cannot add two types of beans (for example, decaffeinated coffee beans). This is possible with some other Siemens devices. However, ground coffee can be added via a separate container.
All in all, we really enjoy the Siemens EQ9. In addition to being an asset on the counter, it is an asset to the taste buds.
