Pros and cons
Morphy Richards
Pros
- Coffee machines start at £34.99, well below the £199.99 flagship pump machine
- Four machine types covered, espresso, bean to cup and drip, so espresso, bean to cup and drip all sit in one place
- The digital dual basket air fryer offers 7.2 litres of capacity with 14 programs and dishwasher safe parts
Cons
- The air fryer has no mobile app, so cooking is controlled from the unit rather than a phone
- Espresso pump pressure is 15 bar against a 19 bar site median, so pressure is at the lower end of the field
- Support runs on email and help centre only, with no phone line in the listed channels
Solis
Pros
- The grinder is built in, which keeps the setup to a single box and puts fresh grinding next to the group head.
- Milk runs through a steam wand system, which suits drinkers who want control over jug texture.
- A spare parts shop is available, so wear parts such as seals and baskets can be ordered from the brand.
Cons
- Machine types cover espresso and grinder under espresso and grinder, so bean to cup is not among them, unlike Philips at bean to cup and espresso.
- Price entry ranks at 47 of 65, so the entry machine sits toward the dearer end of the brands tracked on that measure.
- Milk is a steam wand system, so every milk drink takes work at the jug while Philips pairs espresso with a bean to cup route under bean to cup and espresso.
Who each suits
Morphy Richards
Who it suits
- UK households replacing a blender, air fryer or coffee machine without a big budget
- Shoppers who want a single brand for several small kitchen appliances
- People who plan to keep an appliance for years and value a spare parts shop and a 2 year warranty
Who should look elsewhere
- Shoppers who want a connected appliance, since the air fryer has no mobile app
- Capsule drinkers, as the pod system is none
- Anyone seeking high espresso pressure, since 15 bar sits at the 15 bar mark
Solis
Who it suits
- Drinkers who pull espresso by hand and want the grinder in the machine rather than beside it.
- Households buying a first setup around the coffee machine entry median of €139.44.
- Buyers in the markets listed under CH, LI and NL who want Swiss parts backup from Solis of Switzerland AG.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone after bean to cup convenience, where Philips lists bean to cup and espresso.
- Drinkers who want drip next to espresso, since GASTROBACK lists espresso, drip and grinder.
- Shoppers looking for a brand listed across drip as well as espresso and grinder, since Daewoo Electricals lists drip, espresso and grinder.

Questions about each
Morphy Richards
What does a Morphy Richards air fryer cost?+
The blender collection is where the entry price sits, at £34.99. Air fryers in the range are listed by capacity, with the dual basket model holding 7.2 litres and offering 14 programs. Coffee machines run from £34.99 up to the £199.99 flagship pump espresso.
Is there an app for the Morphy Richards air fryer?+
No. The dual basket digital air fryer has no mobile app, so cooking is set and started on the unit itself. That is a limitation against brands where most appliances connect to a phone, but it also means the fryer works without an app account or a connection.
Solis
What does a Solis espresso machine cost at the entry point?+
Entry pricing of €302.95 is the figure most buyers see first, with the top of the range at €492.95. Both are purchase prices rather than subscriptions, so the budget is set once at the point of sale and stays predictable.
Does the Solis range keep the grinder in the machine?+
The grinder is built in, so beans are ground inside the machine and the setup stays a single box on the counter. Milk on the flagship comes through a steam wand system, and the tank on the top model holds 2.6 litres.
