Terrible locking lid design

Third one replaced under warranty- they're junk and I'm a big Cuisinart fan of many years. I'm guessing they finally are dumping this machine. Lids and pods jam and sometimes it won't unlock. Coffee pot works fine

Disappointed

I bought this a year ago, and forgot to review it, everything works good, but when it comes to the frother, it makes a mess all over it, and heats the milk making me burns my hand. I can't make delicious coffees at all. Very disappointed.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the frother and appreciate you sharing your feedback. To help reduce splatter, try filling the frothing container only to the recommended level and ensure the frothing attachment is properly secured before use. Using cold milk and allowing the unit to complete the frothing cycle may also help improve results. If the issue continues, please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 so we can assist further. Ticket #8900557061

I like this machine so much I may give it a name…

Although it was a gift, I researched coffee machines for quite a while, and requested this one. It simply does all the things, from quick hot water for my tea, to making a pot of Sumatra decaf that I can quickly add a pod of espresso to for an afternoon pick-me-up. I seldom use the Keurig-like feature, yet appreciate having it for guests who will not consider anything except full caffeine. My kitchen is small, and this has a reasonable footprint. I keep it on a sliding base, and this helps with water filling. Set up was not intuitive, yet also not horrible. Between the (inadequate) manual and YouTube I figured everything out in one day of trying all the features. I also have a Cuisinart burr grinder…I am fairly certain I make the best coffee of anyone I know. Really, I think it needs a name because it has become part of the household. I’m hoping we have a long, satisfying relationship….

Coffee Center/Barista Bar - Awesome!

We love this coffee maker. My wife and I immediately noticed how even the K Cups smell better when brewing and it shows up in the taste too. Much better than our old Keurig machine and it makes great pots of coffee from grounds. I highly recommend this one.

Versatile and efficient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Larger than my previous Cuisinart Coffee maker, after over 10 years, it was time to replace. This new 4-in-1 machine is very nice and versatile. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the user interface is not at all intuitive.

Great all in oner

I’ll start by saying I do love this coffee machine. It’s very easy to use. The water containers are really big so you don’t feel like you have to fill up the water a lot, even though we use it all the time. I love that you can do the K cups and the little espresso cups. I’m offended by how much trash they create so we got the reusable K cups, they work great. I haven’t found the same thing for the espresso cups. The only reason I gave the machine four instead of five is like some of the other reviews say the steam wand is a little difficult to use, it doesn’t come out very far so I had to set mine on the edge of the counter to where I can lower my cup rather than tilt it.

Great features and easy to use

I've been using the Cuisinart Barista 4-in-1 Coffee Maker for a while now, and I have to say—it’s impressively easy to use, even if you’re not a seasoned barista. The layout is intuitive, with clearly labeled buttons and a user-friendly interface that makes switching between espresso, coffee, and other drink options simple. Whether I'm brewing a quick single-serve cup or pulling an espresso shot, the process is straightforward and quick, with minimal cleanup. What stands out most is how consistent the results are. The espresso has a rich crema every time, and the coffee is brewed to the same strength and flavor profile with each use. The built-in milk frother works smoothly as well, adding a nice creamy texture to lattes and cappuccinos. I’ve come to rely on this machine daily, and it hasn’t let me down once. Whether you’re looking for speed, ease, or reliable coffee quality, the Cuisinart Barista 4-in-1 really delivers.

Great multi-tasking coffeemaker.

I've really enjoyed this coffee maker. Having two reservoirs is awesome. The expresso res in the back lasts a long time. The steam function works well, I just wish it was either mounted higher or had a slightly shorter stem as I have to tip my steam pitcher and it sometimes slops. It is quite convenient having k-pods as well as Nespresso pods. The controls were a little confusing and the instructions didn't help, but after about a week, I had it figured. Well worth the money.

Coffee Center Barista Bar 4-in-1 Coffeemaker

love it, brews quickly and stays hot for up to 4 hours. The auto start is exactly what is needed, nothing better than to wake up and have a nice, hot fresh brewed cup of coffee and I love the fact I can do a pot, an individual pod or expresso. Great machine.

Grab a funnel

All in all it’s a great coffee maker. Filling the main water tank is a bit of a challenge without making a bit of a mess, I’ve resorted to using a funnel. The steamer is neat, but I’ve yet to froth/steam the milk without making a huge mess— and it just turns out as hot milk.
