Boiler Performance
3.7 /10
Solis machines typically employ compact thermoblock heating systems that heat up rapidly, though they struggle with thermal stability during back-to-back shots.
Extraction Quality
3.8 /10
Equipped with reliable 15-bar pumps and pre-infusion functions, they produce rich crema and balanced flavor, though dial-in precision is limited compared to prosumer models.
Steam System
3.4 /10
The steam wands generate sufficient pressure for decent microfoam, but transition times between brewing and steaming are slow and overall volume is modest.
Overall
3.9 /10
