Oversized Merchandise Shipping

Oversized merchandise (Flat screen LED TVs over 55", plasma TVs over 51", BBQ Grills & Furniture) are shipped via a motor freight carrier that specializes in Home Delivery. Since these items are large and fragile, special handling is required, and cannot be shipped via our standard shipping options.

We take every precaution during our shipping preparation process to ensure that your order arrives to you in perfect condition. Each item on your order is scanned for accuracy of model and serial number. We apply large orange fragile sticker labels to notify the carrier that your shipment is fragile and requires special handling. The labels also include important step-by-step instructions on how to inspect and sign for your shipment. In addition to the manufacturer's standard foam and corrugated packaging, we also apply a special shock absorption polyethylene material to the outer carton of every TV. This safeguard will disperse energy from impact during transit, and eliminate damage to the product itself. Our professional appointment-based delivery service allows you to open and inspect your new TV prior to signing and accepting the TV. When you purchase a TV at Beachcamera.com, you can be sure that it will arrive perfect working order, and will remain that way for a long time to come.

Product Details


Philips 5500 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine, Black Chrome

Product Description:

The Philips 5500 Series (EP5544/94) is a fully automatic super-automatic espresso machine that grinds, tamps, brews, and froths milk at the push of a button — delivering café-quality espresso, lattes, cappuccinos, iced coffees, and more in your kitchen without barista training or manual skill. Designed in Italy and featuring 20 hot and iced coffee presets, the 5500 Series is the flagship of Philips' consumer espresso lineup, combining premium build quality, intelligent brewing technology, and the proprietary LatteGo milk system for a complete bean-to-cup experience.

At the heart of every great espresso is a great grinder, and the 5500 Series delivers with 100% pure ceramic burrs that are 61% more robust than steel and won't heat up during grinding — preserving the delicate aromatics in your beans rather than burning them before brewing even begins. The 12-step grinder adjustment lets you fine-tune from ultra-fine powder to coarse grindings, and Philips' Aroma Extract system intelligently maintains water temperature between 195°F and 210°F while regulating flow rate for the perfect balance of temperature, extraction, and crema — cup after cup. The ceramic grinder is rated for up to 20,000 cups of consistent performance before replacement is needed.

The 5500 Series features Philips' SilentBrew technology — a combination of sound shielding, optimized airflow, and quiet grinding that makes this machine 40% quieter than previous Philips models and officially Quiet Mark certified by the UK Noise Abatement Society. QuickStart technology means the machine is ready to brew in just 3 seconds from power-on, eliminating the lengthy warm-up times that plague many super-automatics. The intuitive full-color display guides you through drink selection, customization, and maintenance with clarity and ease.

The LatteGo milk system is Philips' proprietary external milk container that automatically froths and foams milk to silky-smooth perfection for lattes, cappuccinos, flat whites, and iced milk drinks. What sets LatteGo apart from competing milk systems is its radical simplicity: just 3 parts, no internal tubes, no hidden compartments, and no complicated disassembly. It's dishwasher safe and can be rinsed clean in as little as 10 seconds — the fastest-to-clean automatic milk system available. An included storage lid lets you keep leftover milk in the LatteGo container in your refrigerator between uses.

Customize your drinks with 5 aroma strength settings, 3 temperature settings, adjustable coffee and milk volume, and the ExtraShot function that adds an additional shot of espresso to any recipe for a bolder cup without added bitterness. Save up to 4 personalized user profiles plus a guest mode, so every member of your household can return to their favorite settings with one tap. The included AquaClean water filter purifies water before brewing for better taste and allows up to 5,000 cups before descaling is required. A removable brew group makes internal cleaning straightforward — just rinse under the tap. Five Eco Settings let you reduce water and energy consumption without compromising coffee quality. The Philips HomeID app provides recipes, tips, and machine support. Backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty.
