Ninja espresso and coffee barista system

Rating: 4.4 out of 5 stars and 1,734 ratings

It seems like this Ninja espresso machine can do it all: It offers three single-serve espresso styles, nine brew sizes, an adjustable cup tray, a built-in, fold-away milk frother, a 19-bar pressure system to deliver high-quality espresso and a used capsule storage bin that can hold up to 20 capsules at once.

Promising review: "Yes!!! No more having a bunch of appliances to make a certain type of coffee. Have owned this for a few months and my husband and I are in love of how compatible and great it works. Nesspresso Pods fit perfectly (serving we normally have to push the espresso button twice for a perfect shot) (Lungo option: get a normal mug service a bit bigger then the standard espresso shot) on coffee side works great. Easy to clean and put back together. Temps are all nice I did find single serve coffee side to be not super hot but still works for me. Noise: not too loud I make coffee while my son naps and he doesnt move a muscle." Jessica Nin

Black+Decker 12-cup digital coffee maker

Rating: 4.4 out of 5 stars and 42,191 ratings

For a no-frills option, try this Black+Decker coffee maker that has a 12-cup capacity. Notable features include Sneak-a-Cup, which lets you pour your first cup before all the coffee is done brewing, a water window, an auto-brew feature and an easy-to-use display without so many bells and whistles.

Promising review: "I have been using this at least 3-4x a week since I bought it and it works great. The price was great too. Water capacity is up to 12 cups, but as I'm the only coffee drinker in my house I never make more than 6 cups max if I'm working from home. The cleaning is super easy, I can throw the basket and the pot in the dishwasher and they come out great and I have a simple coffee maker cleaner that cleans it internally as easy as making coffee. It also is small enough to not take up a ton of counter space.

Unlike other brands that were actually more expensive, coffee doesn't taste burnt with this one. Definitely would buy it again if something happened to it and it has already paid for itself at least 5 times over." lauren oblek

Cuisinart Perfectemp coffee maker

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars

Cuisinart's programmable coffee maker gives you the hottest coffee temp possible without sacrificing flavor or quality. It is fully automatic and can be programmed 24 hours in advance. It is self-cleaning, has automatic shut-off and holds up to 14 cups. It practically does everything but pour the coffee for you!

Promising review: "One of the best coffee makers we have ever purchased. The coffee tastes so much better and stays hot that I've had to reduce the number of scoops of grounds used as the coffee comes out so strong. This makes a cup of coffee equal to a Starbucks coffee (and I don't even have it set to bold) Love it!!" Nancy Adle

Mueller Austria French press

Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars and 39,245 ratings

Mueller's French press is as elegant as it is easy to use and effective at making delicious coffee. It has a four-level filtration system that stops coffee grounds and sediment from contaminating the beverage but lets the coffee oils through. It's dishwasher-safe and rust-proof and includes a matching travel canister that can hold beans or grounds for two full batches, making it perfect for camping or other travels.

Promising review: "I like that this particular french press is built sturdy and made to last. It's pretty convenient and once you figure out the water to coffee ratio, the flavor is unmatched. Leakage hasn't been an issue. The handle never gets hot, and the size is just right for my partner and I. It's easily portable and simple to clean. It looks nice on my counter, and doesn't take up a bunch of space... or require a plug in. It works for my lifestyle. Honestly it doesn't take that much more time to brew a pot -as compared to a standard coffee pot. If you prefer good taste and more control over your brew then the little bit of extra time isn't going to be a deal breaker. I bought the larger size Considering we are big coffee drinkers. Its Worth the price." Milla taylor

Aeropress coffee and espresso maker

Rating: 4.7 out of 5 stars and 21,762 ratings

The AeroPress is quickly becoming a popular French press alternative among enthusiasts. It quickly and easily makes tasty, smooth and deliciously full-flavored coffee while eliminating bitterness, acidity and grit. The lightweight, small and durable design makes it incredibly portable, so you can take it on the go no matter where you may be. It comes in two sizes.

Promising review: "This makes an excellent cup of coffee quickly and without a lot of waste (filter paper, pod, etc). Its easy to adjust the strength to your own taste by varying quantity of beans, grind size, how long it steeps etc. I started years ago with an Aeropress for travel and then took if to Scotland for six months in 2021. While I was there I just stopped using the pour over method I was used to in favor of the Aeropress. My original one is still working after more than 10 years although Ive replaced the plunger seal but I needed a new one s Id have one for travel and one for at home." classicboomer

Promising review: "I have used Keurig Coffee Makers for many years. I saw this special edition and purchased it. The difference in the coffee was significant. I am not certain if it is higher pressure or hotter temperature, but Keurig nailed it. The Latte and Cappuccino feature is amazing. In 3 minutes, hot milk with beautiful foam. Best part is no wand, no stirring, no mess. I have ordered a second one for my office." browndog

Mr. Coffee Cafe Barista espresso and cappuccino maker and grinder

Rating: 4.3 out of 5 stars and 14,374 ratings

Mr. Coffee's espresso maker has a bar pump system that brews rich, delicious cappuccinos, Americanos, lattes and espressos. The automatic milk frother is a breeze to use, and the machine has a control panel and removable water and milk reservoirs that are easy to fill, remove and clean. The machine comes with a 14-cup coffee grinder that has an easy on/off-button operation.

Promising review: "When I bought this 7 months ago, Ill be honest that I wasnt expecting much. I must admit I was wrong. Sometimes you buy a product and it is great. This Mr. Coffee maker is just that product. I didnt think making cappuccino could be this easy but it is. And I mean really easy. Just read the instructions and clean it as described in the manual, which takes no time. I was in France recently and they have almost exclusively moved to the machine style coffee. It is nothing compared to the quality of the coffee machine. I read several reviews and one comment was that the coffee was weak. In most cases, that would be a deal breaker for me. However, I learned that using a good espresso bean is key. Not that you have to spend a bundle on beans, but just dont buy cheap stuff. This coffee is better than what you buy in the large coffee chains. I was super impressed. After making several cups of incredible cappuccino, you realize that you can pay for the machine when compared to the cost of a coffee at a chain coffee shop." Patti

Promising review: "I have had this machine for almost a year now. I used to have a keurig but the coffee was never strong enough for me and sometimes tasted off. I need a strong cup to function. So I did my research and decided to purchase a nespresso. It was love at first cup, really. Im so spoiled by it now! I love it so much Im thinking about buying the smaller version too so I can bring it with us on our vacation. LOL If you are a strong coffee lover you need this machine." D. Smith

Bialetti Moka Express

Rating: 4.6 out of 5 stars and 20,118 ratings

Made in Italy, the Bialetti Moka Express is the original moka coffee pot for stovetop espresso. It is beautifully crafted with a patented safety valve and easy-to-clean features that make it a wonderful alternative to investing in a massive espresso machine. It's available in one-, six-, nine- and 12-cup sizes.

Promising review: "I have tried pour-over, standard drip coffee, Starbucks, French press... you name it. But every time I come back to my Moka Pot, I am always like, "Ahhhhhh!! That's so good!!" It is like night and day better than other methods. I don't know the mechanics of how the magic happens except that perhaps the steam is just super gentle on the ground beans and knows how to bring out the very best in them. I add a small bit of cream and I am in heaven. It is easy to use and is also a beautiful piece of art in its own right. Highly recommended!" Jack's Girl

Keurig K-Slim coffee maker

Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars and 58,471 ratings

Thanks to its slim profile, the Keurig K-Slim coffee machine fits in even the tiniest of kitchens. Despite its petite size, it features a multiple-cup water reservoir, so you don't have to worry about constant refilling. It's tall enough to be travel mug-friendly, is energy efficient and has a removable drip tray for easy cleanup.

Promising review: "Had it for a few days now, everything works great. It takes almost no space up on the counter, I love this 5 inch wide size. Having the water reservoir is very convenient...I had considered some of the other models where you fill up each cup manually, but am glad I decided on this one, you can make several cups and not have to refill. Coffee comes out at a nice temperature, not scalding, but the temperature coffee should really be, just hot enough. Using normal k-pods, no issues so far. Having the 3 sizes is also helpful, I didn't think I'd want this, but it turns out it is useful. I would recommend and would purchase again." Joe A
