Our verdict on each
Breville
Breville suits households that want a single countertop machine to grind, brew and steam without a subscription. The Barista Express pairs a built-in grinder with a 28.32 litre tank and phone support, though the $499.95 entry price lands mid-range rather than cheap.
Coolblue Belgium
Coolblue Belgium suits Belgian households that want one local shop for robot vacuums, air treatment and security cameras, with a 30-day returns window behind every purchase. It suits buyers who value breadth, local delivery and in-country support over a narrow range or a subscription-based plan.

Pros and cons
Breville
Pros
- The grinder is built in, so the Barista Express covers whole beans and ground coffee without a separate grinder on the counter.
- Milk is textured by a steam wand, which suits drinkers who like to control the foam themselves.
- The 28.32 litre tank carries several brews between refills, and a spare parts shop is available for the parts that wear with regular use.
Cons
- Machine types are listed as espresso only, so a household that wants drip alongside espresso is better served by GASTROBACK, which lists espresso, drip and grinder.
- Support runs on phone and help centre, so live chat and email sit outside the listed channels.
- At $499.95 the Barista Express costs more than the $319.95 starting point for the air-fryer and cooking range, so the budget goes to the coffee machine rather than the rest of the range.
Coolblue Belgium
Pros
- The camera listing covers recording to microSD card, a base station or a hard drive without a subscription, plus app live view and motion alerts, and local storage is offered.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, and a spare parts shop keeps brushes, filters and mop pads orderable after purchase.
- Floor care spans robot vacuum, stick and handheld, so a robot vacuum can be bought alongside a stick or handheld vacuum in the same order.
Cons
- Floor care stops at robot vacuum, stick and handheld, so a buyer who wants an upright or wet-dry vacuum has to shop elsewhere.
- The app carries no energy reporting, so household energy use has to be measured elsewhere.
- A hub is required before bridges speak zigbee and wi fi, so smart home buyers pay for extra hardware before the first device goes in.
Who each suits
Breville
Who it suits
- Drinkers who want espresso and freshly ground coffee from the same machine, with no separate grinder to buy.
- Households that pay once and want help on the phone when the grinder or pump needs attention.
- Cooks who want coffee, air-fryer, blender and food-processor products under one roof, since the range covers air fryer, blender and food processor
Who should look elsewhere
- Philips if you want the bean-to-cup format, since bean to cup and espresso covers that type while Breville lists espresso
- GASTROBACK for drip drinkers, because espresso, drip and grinder pairs espresso with drip and a separate grinder
- Daewoo Electricals if a wider choice of formats matters, given drip, espresso and grinder covers drip, espresso and a separate grinder
Coolblue Belgium
Who it suits
- Belgian households replacing a vacuum or a purifier who want delivery, returns and support handled by one local operation.
- Camera buyers who want recording to microSD card, a base station or a hard drive without a subscription.
- Shoppers whose floor care shortlist is robot vacuum, stick or handheld, the types this range covers.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want upright or wet-dry vacuums, since floor care here covers robot vacuum, stick and handheld only.
- Shoppers outside Belgium, since Coolblue Belgium delivers only to Belgian addresses.

Questions about each
Breville
How much does the Barista Express cost at entry?+
The entry price is $499.95 for the Barista Express. The wider appliance range starts lower at $319.95, so budget for the coffee machine rather than the range as a whole. Both figures are purchase prices for the machine itself, which keeps the comparison simple.
Does the machine come with a grinder built in?+
Yes. The grinder is built in, so the machine grinds whole beans on the spot, and milk is textured by a steam wand you work by hand. The 28.32 litre tank holds the water between brews, which suits a household running several coffees back to back.
Coolblue Belgium
What does the cheapest robot vacuum cost at Coolblue Belgium?+
The lowest robot vacuum price is €199, and the top of the range is €1,199. Reference models are named at each end of the list, so the gap between the two prices buys hardware rather than a subscription. Neither figure renews after the purchase.
Is the flagship robot vacuum worth more than the entry model?+
The step up from entry at €199 buys a self empty dock, Lidar mapping and a mop pad that lifts 10.5 mm, on a machine that pulls 42,000 Pa and stands 8.9 cm tall. Buyers who already know they want a dock and a mop lift should go straight to the flagship.
