Bartesian Professional Cocktail Machine, 5 Premium Glass Bottles, 55306 (Renewed)

I was a bit hesitant to purchase a refurbished model at 1st especially since its still a lot of money. I've had the machine for about a month now. Tried tons of different pods that I ordered from bartesian and sams club in the machine. Its been working amazing. I love it very much. Everything looked brand new when I opened the box. No issues what so ever. Only 1 time did I have a pod spill over but I think it was the pod not the machine. The locking mechanism is good for those who have kids for me it's not really a requirement. This and the look of the machine are about the only differences compared to the regular model. Highly recommend does not come with pods. Thats the only bummer because you get excited to use it and have to order pods online.

Love! Love! Love!Although the pods are expensive

Love it

What delicious drinks this machine makes. I highly recommend it.

Overall, I love the Bartesian - but be aware that I had to get the capsules from Walmart or here on Amazon - local liquor stores have said that they don't carry them anymore due to low demand - accoding to Total Wine & Spirits. I hope that more retailers locally start to sell them and that the entire thing doesn't become obsolete - also try waiting a few minutes between cocktails - I tried back to back drinks and the 2nd drink only filled to about 1/4 of the amount that it it supposed to. I Googled and it seems to be a known issue? Overall it's a fun toy, especially because I'm nowhere near the level of a bartender & if I have guests over, its a novel idea to be able to not have to do so much & let guests choose their own drinks AND the mocktail option was such an amazing touch :)

Bartesian is a nice product, easy to set up and use, and fun. It is a time saver for a party and a nice conversation piece. There are a variety of cocktail offerings. Clean up is easy and is maintenance. On sale, this is one of those splurge items worth the money.

Got this for my hubby and he loves it. I should have purchased the larger machine but we just got extra canisters for the different liquors.

Came in original box as described! Great itemAnd great service . Please disregard my seller rating as it was for the previous company I purchase the same item from.
