Looks like it is this model: ECAM 23.120.B. Not many reviews, but those that do exist say it's pretty good. Price wise, not too bad. I'd guess the model is a few years old, and LIDL will have 1-2 models per store. Token unboxing video.

Wonder is it a very plastic finish
I'm new to bean to cup
Would I be better off getting a machine with a wand or milk compartment

Definitely a very plastic finish (watch the unboxing video). If the wand is good, then definitely the wand. Hard to see how a milk compartment would be really useful in a home machine. We had one in our office machine at one point. Went from zero to crusty in a couple of weeks.
