The differences that matter
- Dishwasher-safe milk system only on the Class → the Melitta's tube stays out of the dishwasher.
- App connectivity only on the Class → the machine connects to an app, the Melitta does not.
- 3 user profiles vs 4 → the Melitta stores the settings of one more person.
- 11 kg vs 9.25 → the Melitta is easier to move.
Which one to choose
Choose PrimaDonna Class ECAM550.65.SB if…
cappuccino is a daily thing, the carafe goes in the dishwasher and you want to run the machine from an app. You accept a heavier machine to move around.
Choose CI Touch if…
cappuccino is occasional and cleaning the tube outside the dishwasher does not bother you; the machine is also easier to move. There is no app.
