One thought to “Mr.Coffee Cafe Barista Premium Espresso/Cappuccino System review”

  1. Absolutely useless!
    I got mine about 2 days ago and it is defective, the milk barely comes out of the tube, it just sputters and stops and very little foam, and now the coffee isn’t even coming out at all.
    Returning it.
