Beautiful machine and easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Cuisineart Espresso Bar Espresso machine Friday and tested it over the last couple of days. Compared to my original DeLonghi Espresso I enjoy the easy buttons such as the ability to have cold press, a single shot, and double shot. I also like that it has the accessories such as the metal foam cup, and the drawer that holds the extra bottomless porta filters. The ability to fill water at the top is also an awesome feature as my previous machine I had to remove a water reservoir to be able to refill.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Coffee shop quality lattes at home!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow I am so impressed with this machine. You can tell from the moment you take it out of the box that it is high quality. We already have several coffee and espresso machines at home but this one reigns supreme! First, I love that it makes high quality espresso. This machine has a much higher pressure when making espresso than most other machines which leads to higher quality and smoother results! Secondly I absolutely love that I can make both iced and warm drinks. I live somewhere that experiences all seasons and having a cold coffee in the morning during summer is so nice. Overall I would give this a 10/10. It may be a bit more manual than some other espresso and late machines but it is worth it!

Felt like a barista

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I were thrilled to try out the Cuisinart Espresso Bar. This machine made us feel like baristas without tons of work. It was super easy to prepare espresso shots, and hot and cold lattes. Using the milk steamer was tricky at first, but the instructions could have been more clear. I love that this has a water reservoir on it. Super convenient and easy to remove and fill.

Cuisinart espresso machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loved this product. I had an espresso machine already from a name brand but it was really tedious to use it.
This cuisinart just amazed me. The packaging was a little tedious but not a deal breaker. It is so easy to use, love the compact look. So far have been using for espresso everyday! The only thing that I would have liked it is the coffee grinder, that would have been perfect. Since I already had one it was fine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been looking to save money spent going to coffee shops each morning and I love a good latte. This is very simple to use and I can make a variety of drinks. Hubby appreciates it as well and we’ve saved a lot.

Perfect for perking up my mornings!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Look: sleek and fits in perfectly with kitchen decor
Usage: Very easy to understand for the beginner barista (though recommend reading the user manual to learn how to program the machine to tailor to your own taste!)
Pros (compared with the Breville Barista machine):
- Easy to understand controls
- Water supply located in front so that it's easy to see low water
- Slimmer
- Fits taller cups
Cons (compared with the Breville Barista machine):
- No grinder (but this can be an advantage if you want to buy a separate grinder to your liking!)
- Entire machine rotates when you insert the portafilter into place due to lightweight design
- Brewing may cause splatter if using a shorter cup
Overall: Highly recommended for beginner expresso lovers! Happy brewing!

Excellent espresso machine!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, I’m the type of person who loves all types of gourmet espresso drinks, from hot to cold. I’ve just never found an appliance that could offer me both and work effectively.. until now! This is the first machine that I have actually had to read the manual to figure out how to work. But after reading it thoroughly, I can make a drink easily!
