The counter’s vote

Both are bought partly for their looks, by the community’s own record — this beat has no winner; your counter votes.

WE8: Chrome and amber-lit cup display deliberately position it as office/kitchen showpiece; community notes "luxury" aesthetic drives adoption in workplace settings more than home.

CM 6360 MilkPerfection: Minimalist luxury aesthetic (Obsidian Black, Lotus White) demonstrably drives purchases—"kitchen approval," "one of the best-looking super-automatics" cited in purchase rationale; some find dated…

Only the CM 6360 MilkPerfection: a hot-water tap.

Where they tie: milk & steam · shot ceiling · back-to-back drinks · ready when you are · reliability record — don’t let a spec sheet invent a difference.

On the counter

The size difference, to scale

drag to look around
WE8 claims 29.5 × 44.5 cm of a standard 60 cm counter and stands 35.1 cm tall 9.899999999999999 cm to spare under standard 45 cm uppers. CM 6360 MilkPerfection stands beside it, dashed, for size. The small block is a mug; the counter grid is 10 cm.

So — which one?

Take the WE8 if —

  • You want a button, not a ritual

Take the CM 6360 MilkPerfection if —

  • You are buying once
  • Americanos and tea share the counter

Both columns reading true? Take the one your gut already picked — then stop reading reviews. Fresh beans will move the cup more than this choice will.

Known weak points

WE8

Proprietary brewing unit and grinder units are expensive to replace out of warranty; sealed architecture limits user repair beyond routine descaling

CM 6360 MilkPerfection

Brew unit misalignment and handle lock failure on reinsertion; descaling system can enter unrecoverable loops requiring power cycle; water sensor alerts even when containers properly filled; milk temperature inconsistency reported in prior models.

The froth created by the Miele CM6360 is superior to any machine I have used to date which includes Jura, DeLonghi and Saeco. Cleaning the frothing tube after each use is very easy and I prefer it over the Jura.
