Bofu is a small household appliance brand from Australia, known for its good use of stainless steel to create a sense of quality. If you know a little about the products of the two companies, you will find that the Creatista Plus is a design that goes against the tradition of Nespresso and has a deep brand of Rosepresso.
Bofu has in-depth cooperation with some local brands in Europe, and some Bofu coffee machines will also be sold under other brands. The most common of these is Sage Appliances, followed by Solis, which is mainly responsible for distribution in the Western European market, and Riviera&Bar, which is only in France.
Unlike ordinary small appliance brands, Bofu has made very good achievements in the field of home semi-automatic coffee machines, and its Dual Boiler semi-automatic coffee machine is often compared with the home models of professional coffee machine brands such as Rocket. Compared to traditional semi-automatic coffee machines, the Dual Boiler is slightly smarter. You can set automatic power on and off times according to your schedule to make it easier to warm up the machine and boil water in advance, and you can also pre-set the temperature according to your taste. On top of that, the twin boiler design and the sophisticated four-hole steam wand make the Dual Boiler a pretty good semi-automatic coffee maker for home use.
In terms of price, Dual Boiler also behaves decently, and the price will fluctuate with the promotional activities of different nodes, but it is generally around 15,000 yuan. It uses a vibrating pressure pump, but the noise is much smaller than that of a general pressure pump, and the fuselage is also very stable, and the coffee cup preheated at the top will not collide with the vibration of the fuselage. But at the same price, the configuration of Huijia KD-410 is a whole head higher than that of Dual Boiler, after all, no matter how sophisticated the vibrating pressure pump is, it can't be compared with the rotary pressure pump.
Compared with other home appliance coffee machine brands, Bofu coffee machine also has one of the biggest features, that is, the water outlet is made of stainless steel, compared with plastic, stainless steel has higher precision, when the coffee machine is placed horizontally, the flow of the two water outlets is more uniform, which can well cope with the scene of extracting two cups of coffee at the same time. With the exception of the Bambino Plus, all Bofu coffee machine brewing heads are of a professional standard.
The fully automatic coffee machine requires a high level of human involvement, and it is a very good option for users who want to retain the sense of ritual in the operation without spending too much time. The Oracle Series is the closest fully automatic coffee machine to the push of a button, and the machine grinds, fills and compacts the beans itself, but still requires the user to attach the brew handle to the extraction spout themselves. There is also no milk frother, so if you want to make a drink like a cappuccino, you need to froth it manually.
Of course, the Oracle series, the most advanced line of coffee machines in the Platinum series, is naturally a dual-boiler configuration, so extraction and foaming can be carried out at the same time. The price of the series products is between 14,000-16,000 yuan. Compared with Delonghi, there are not so many choices in the price of Bofu coffee machine, and the cheapest automatic coffee machine Barista is also priced at 8980 yuan.
In terms of after-sales, in addition to consumables such as gaskets, the official supports a 12-month warranty. There is no on-site maintenance service, but during the warranty period, the mailing costs incurred in the repair will be borne by Bofu.
