“A lovely machine, always an object of interest to visitors. Had a few leaks but it might be that they were due to my misuse. Some friends have tried it and found it difficult to unscrew. It always produces a great double espresso, which can be used as a base for a milky coffee.”
“Postage for 4 o rings was nearly £5 which I would have expected to be 1st Class - the package was posted on 17th November and arrived on 21st November. Not impressed!”
“I live an off-grid lifestyle with a limited setup. I didn't want to sacrifice my love of a good espresso, and 9Barista is the perfect thing for me to still feel that bit of luxury out here on the land. I can't compliment the craftsmanship or top-notch engineering enough. It gives me the perfect cup of espresso every time. I highly recommend it to all you homesteaders out there.”
“I gave it 5 in honesty and reliability, I had issues with FedEx saying was delivered and it wasn’t, I have video proof got delivered the day after claiming it was, my complain was successful and 9 Barista is not only a great coffee machine, it also has great management and customer service. Thank you. I am happy to change my review for what really deserve.”
“Did not manage to find the proper mix of milling and quantity to make a proper espresso, having done this often for espresso machines. The necessary, very cumbersome, cleaning of the machine after each test made testing a difficult and slow process. I gave up und the 9Barista machine is in storage.”
“Had my 9Barista Espresso Machine for over two years. Bought one of the first - Mark 1 #283. It is aesthically delightful (almost hilarious) from opening the package, on assembly, to seeing it in action; reliable - first use was, perhaps, befuddling, but ever since it has just worked time after time; robust - super-well-made, unexpectedly heavy, thoughtful selection of materials for each component; fun - enjoy the ritual of using it; and makes great coffee - personally, I add it to a mug of hot milk, best coffee of the day.”
“I adore 9 Barista and own two for my own use so I can make two pots for myself at once. The valve has burst many times. The first time I ordered replacements, it took over two months When I contacted to say I hadn’t received them yet, they said sometimes mail took a long time. Eventually the parts came. After that I planned for a long delivery time which was usually was under a month. Just recently I ordered 10 more safety valves and got them in a few days. I was thrilled. I think they must have a supplier now in the US Nothing makes better coffeefor me than 9Barista( and I have had MANY stove top coffee makers )n so I have been patient”
“Besides having the most wonderful stove top coffee pot, the after-sales-service from 9B is top notch!! After nearly melting the chimney on my beloved 9B pot, on a camp stove, the replacement I ordered arrived in a flash.”
