The differences that matter
- Price: 1699.99 € vs 749 € → the ECAM630.55.SM costs more than double.
- Pre-ground compartment: present on the ECAM630.55.SM, absent on the EQ500 iAroma → only the first accepts coffee that isn't ground fresh.
- Milk system: carafe on the ECAM630.55.SM, automatic pickup tube on the EQ500 iAroma → the carafe needs refilling and fridge storage, the tube draws straight from the container.
- Bean hopper: 500 g vs 300 g → the ECAM630.55.SM needs refilling less often.
Which one to choose
Choose PrimaDonna Aromatic ECAM630.55.SM if…
A household that alternates regular and decaf coffee through the day pours the ground coffee into the dedicated chute without touching the bean hopper. The trade-off is a higher price and milk handled through a carafe that needs filling and fridge storage.
Choose EQ500 iAroma if…
Someone who only brews from beans and wants milk ready without managing a carafe relies on the automatic pickup tube that draws straight from a container or milk carton. The trade-off is no option to use pre-ground coffee: everything goes through the built-in grinder.
