Our verdict on each
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.
Melitta
Melitta suits buyers who want a filter machine or bean-to-cup machine from one name, and the entry price of €39.99 makes it easy to start small. The Barista TS Smart adds a grinder and an auto-frother, so a single brand can cover cheap filter coffee and a full espresso setup.

Pros and cons
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.
Melitta
Pros
- Entry price of €39.99 makes the cheapest machines a small outlay
- The Barista TS Smart has a grinder built in and a auto frother for milk drinks
- Spare parts shop keeps servicing simple, and support runs on phone, chat and help centre
Cons
- The range has no pod system, so none rules out capsule drinkers and their quick single-cup routine
- Espresso is not among its machine types (bean to cup, drip and pour over), while espresso, drip and grinder and bean to cup and espresso both cover espresso
- The flagship price of €950 leaves it outside the espresso machines most buyers in the ranking pick
Who each suits
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.
Melitta
Who it suits
- Households that want a cheap filter machine and, later, a grinder-equipped espresso machine from the same brand
- Drinkers who prefer ground coffee and beans over capsules, since the range uses none pod system
- Owners who like buying replacement parts themselves, as a spare parts shop is available
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers set on espresso hardware, since espresso is not among bean to cup, drip and pour over and GASTROBACK covers that
- Capsule users, as the pod system is none and Philips centres on bean-to-cup and espresso
- Anyone chasing the highest spec at the lowest price, since the flagship costs €950

Questions about each
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.
Melitta
What is the cheapest Melitta coffee machine?+
The cheapest machines start at €39.99. That entry price covers the filter end of the range, which is where bean to cup, drip and pour over comes in, and it sits below the espresso ranking's median entry price of €150.54.
How much does the most expensive Melitta machine cost?+
The top of the range is priced at €950. The espresso ranking puts its flagship median at €691.91, so a Melitta flagship lands in a mid-priced bracket rather than at the top of the espresso field.
