Perfect espresso from bean to cup


Automatic espresso machines are designed with convenience and efficiency in mind. But while these machines have been successful at saving time and energy, many do so at the expense of flavor.

However, the world renowned Philips Saeco begs to differ. It offers just the right blend of innovation and customization rolled into its Philips Saeco Royal HD8930. According to Philips, coffee lovers can now enjoy their daily cup of joe that’s customizable to their preference, from bean to cup at just the touch of a button.

“The rich Italian heritage behind Saeco solidifies the capability of our automatic espresso machines to deliver unyielding performance cup after cup,” remarks Ms. Pia Umayam, Business Development Manager for Philips Domestic Appliances.

She also adds that the Royal is the perfect automatic espresso machine for the discerning coffee lover, offering the most aromatic and flavorful espressos, lattes, and cappuccinos without any fuss.

The Royal enables the user to adjust every element of coffee including coffee length, temperature as well as strength or the amount of coffee to be ground, to get the desired taste, texture and volume. Moreover, it also has an insulated milk container and cup warmer, offers large capacity containers and is highly ergonomic.

“Philips Saeco is synonymous with innovation and convenience. Whether it’s refilling beans or water, emptying the coffee dump box or drip tray, or accessing compartments, everything can be done quickly and easily,” she explains.

The Philips Saeco Royal raises the bar for automatic espresso machines with its consistently solid performance. “The Royal delivers on Philips’ commitment to making innovations that help make people’s lives easier every day,” Ms. Umayam concludes.


Be close to your baby even if you are not around

For any parent, their child’s safety is top priority. But with so much chores and errands to be done around the house, it often seems impossible to be able to monitor one’s baby while doing other tasks.

Philips Avent brand ambassador Maricel Laxa-Pangilinan offers a solution for moms who have their hands full—the Philips Avent Video Monitor. Maricel explains that with the video monitor, “We can keep a close eye on Solana and know whenever she needs something. It also lets me tend to other things at home, allowing me to multi-task.”

Me-Ann Achacoso, Philips Avent’s Business Development Manager, agrees. “The Philips Avent Video Monitor is a handy tool for busy moms like Maricel who have other things to take care of at home. Its unique color LCD screen lets you be with your baby wherever you are and quickly attend to your baby’s needs,” she explains.

According to Ms. Achacoso, the high-tech video monitor features a 100% secure connection so you’re assured of a direct and private access to your baby’s video feed; an infra-red night vision feature for round the clock monitoring; a high resolution LCD screen; easy to position camera; three soothing lullabies to help baby go to sleep; and a digital link confirmation to ensure that you are connected to your baby.

“We at Philips Avent understand the need of modern Filipina moms for meaningful innovations, and we want them to be a ble to manage their time wisely without having to miss out on their baby’s needs. With so many features that allow them to do just that, Philips Avent’s Video Monitor promises to watch your baby even if you aren’t around,” concludes Ms. Achacoso.
