Happiness in a cup with a double shot!

Trusting the Cuisinart name, we purchased this coffee center bc we love drip coffee but wanted the flexibility of a K-cup. (We previously had a different brand that offered both but we went through 3 machines in 6 years and were fed up with that brand). The fact that this also allows NESPRESSO PODS?!? Heavenly. In fact, since I like my coffee stronger than my husband, I've started brewing an espresso and adding coffee to it for that extra punch. I like the 4 hour warming plate capability since I'm usually awake 2-3 hours before my husband. Also of note, is the large reservoir for single cup brewing. I honestly couldn't be more pleased with this machine for now. Hopefully it will serve us for many years. 🤞 This machine comes with quick start instructions and detailed instructions and as long as you take the time to read them, you will have no problem using this. I saw a review where someone said it was “like a piece of furniture “ on their counter but really, look at any high quality, espresso or multi-function coffee machine and it's the same or smaller than those. I would and have recommended this to friends.

Every morning coffee is special!

This is a wonderful upgrade from my previous coffee maker. The barista bar feels like I’m having a special coffee every morning! It’s easy to use and everything functions just as expected. Very pleased with my purchase!

Would recommend to anyone!

The removable water tank for single serve is huge and doesn’t need refilled often if using for espresso. The filter in each tank is a huge step up from our past machine. The flavor through all 3 options is a shocking step up as well. The 12 cup portion operates as any coffee maker should and is very easy to use. The single-use side is great. As some one who likes variety when it comes to coffee, this machine allows for so much variability and can satisfy a crowd. The single-serve side only takes 1-2 minutes per cup at most and the 12-cup side takes about 10 minutes. The only thing that could make it better is if you could use both sides at once, but understandably you cannot. The hot water/frother is an excellent addition as well. After a light wipe down and running the setup cycles there’s no machine taste or anything weird, just great coffee. The good reusable filter makes great coffee and the self-clean feature couldn’t be simpler. I would recommend this machine to anyone looking for a good coffee maker whether they need the single-serve side or not.

Looking for the perfect HOT cup of coffee?

I could not be happier with my new Barista Bar 4-1 Coffee Maker. The water remains hot for a fantastic cup of coffee. I have been disappointed in the past with coffee makers that didn’t heat the water as hot.. I love a HOT cup of coffee. I can make a pot or individual serving with that same heat. This unit does not disappoint. I have recommended it to my sister and friends.

One device that does it all

This is a really good full size 4 in 1 coffee maker. I love having a full-size carafe along with the option to use K cups or Nespresso pods. I’m actually on my second machine, but with Cuisinarts three year warranty I was able to get a replacement. One of the challenges I had with an earlier version was that the milk wand was difficult to use. They have made improvements on their latest model the SS – 4N1 to the milk wand, it’s now much easier to maneuver and provides vertical tilt instead of just lateral. I would recommend this coffee maker for people who want to have the convenience of one machine that can do everything for their coffee needs. It’s a great option instead of having multiple machines and devices, you have everything in one location and one device.

Bye, Bye Bunn; Hello Barista Bar

I've used a Bunn coffeemaker for years and a Keurig for pods. The Keurig recently quit working and I was ready for a multi use coffeemaker. The Coffee Center Barista Bar 4-in-1 Coffeemaker was my choice. I'm pleased with the flexibility and performance. I received it as a Christmas gift.

Love it!

I absolutely love this coffee machine! I have used Cuisinart coffee makers for years and have never been disappointed. I like having the charcoal filters in the water reservoir. If you're a coffee lover, this is it for you! You have many coffee options (carafe, k-cups,espresso ) the added bonus of a steamer,frother. The book also has recipes. I did watch a video on YouTube before initial use... Very helpful since there are so many ways to use it.

4-in-1 Coffee Maker

Easy to use. I had my own refillable pods from the Cuisanart coffeemaker before this one, otherwise you have to buy them, which is lame considering the price. I thought the espresso pod feature also meant refillable pods, but its not, it’s a single pod/disposable pod, which is wasteful, so I will just use my on-stove espresso pot unless I can find an aftermarket Nespresso style refillable pods to buy.

Love it!

We've had the Barista machine for about a month now and LOVE it. We had an error code trying to set up the clean for the single cup side but I think the water reservoir wasnt aligned correctly. The coffee it makes is really great! I like that the company makes a reusable pod for Keurig-style cups but I really wish they'd make a compatible refillable espresso pod too.

Love this coffee machine

I love this coffee machine! My only critique- I wish the setting that keeps the pot warm lasted more than 2 hours as a household that drinks coffee all day long. However, it can be turned back on, so it is not a dealbreaker in any sense. I like the glass coffee pot and the ability to brew a k-cup and espresso. 10/10
