This was particularly useful, because I could ask Alexa to skip a song, turn down the music, or pause without having to use my hands at any point (perfect for when you're kneading bread or elbows-deep in the washing up). If you tell your Lavazza app how many pods you have ready to use, the Voicy will remind you to buy more if you're running low. It also keeps track of key stats like how many coffees you've had in a given day. You can customise more than the presets with the Lavazza app. There is also the option to make yourself a 'favourite coffee', which will allow you to choose from two temperature levels and volumes of coffee. You can then ask Voicy to make your favourite coffee, and you can also ask it to make a 'hot coffee' for an added boost of heat. What is the coffee like with the Lavazza Voicy? There is a noticeable difference in the temperature between this and the regular mode, too. If you read our other Lavazza reviews such as the Lavazza Idola Capsule coffee machine review you'll find that Lavazza makes excellent coffee all-round. There are different pod flavours available and each machine comes with a box that shows the different tasting notes and allows you to pick your favourite ones to re-order once the box is finished. The Lavazza Voicy retails for £249, so it's by no means cheap. For contrast, the Lavazza Idola costs just £99, and has on-board controls to offer more custom drink options and temperature settings. However, if you want a smart coffee machine for your home, I can't recommend the Voicy highly enough.Įverything about this coffee machine feels high quality, from the sturdy speaker on the front to the metal exterior. I found the setup to be relatively seamless, and the ability to control it remotely was useful for more than just pouring coffee.
