Mr. Coffee Cafe Latte Maker

1. Kmclark2008 Verified Buyer – 10 March 2024

   Carafe broke while making a latte after owning it just a few months and using it on the weekends. Contacted Mr. Coffee and was told it’s not under warranty, OR in stock but that I could watch for it. What the f am I supposed to do with it until then? After more searching I realized just the carafe costs over $25. Um, no. I will not be buying anything from Mr. coffee again, horrible customer service.

   Got this 4 days ago and have made 1-2 lattes a day!! Love love love this thing! So easy to use and makes surprisingly good lattes! I will save tons of money by not going to Starbucks!

   

3. Winnie The Mini Verified Buyer – 27 June 2024

   This coffee maker worked amazing for the first four months i had it. I used it every morning and was so proud i was saving the $5+ dollars i used to spend at starbucks every day. However, it started leaking water and causes a mess on my counter. There is a small hole in the back which if you fill the cut more than the fill line it comes out. Mine started leaking from the front, and its not just the water its coffee. I am so bummed because this was the first coffee machine i invested a lot of money in for the latte aspect.

   Good product but after one year the glass pitcher broke from washing it.

   If you have one of these, guard it with your life! I broke the carafe yesterday & discovered the machine is discontinued & replacement parts are no longer available from Mr. Coffee. Luckily, I found a new one on FB Marketplace. I love this latte maker & have been using it practically daily for over 2 yrs. It works perfectly & is fast & easy to use. This latte maker makes delicious lattes & has saved me a fortune in Starbucks!!

   For anyone who is a fan of coffee shop style lattes this is the machine for you! I used to have a little home espresso and frothing wand machine but it was very finicky, time consuming and had a lot of problems. With my Mr. Coffee machine I just press a button and then moments later have an amazing latte ready to go! While it’s true that it doesn’t do “real” espresso if you’re the type of person who isn’t too fussed about that kind of thing and want some good lattes it’s the perfect machine for you!

   I love it! It’s easy to use and takes up a small amount of space! However, I like a lot of coffee so the 2 serving selection is really 1 serving for me, but I’m okay with that! I am also a low-carber and tried carb master milk and it frothed it with no problem! No need for Starbucks lattes any more! Love it!!

   Excelente latte, tambien puedes hacer chocolate riquisimo, facil de manejar, facil de limpiar, la recomiento y aconsejo comprar el filtro permanente asi no tienen que comprar los de papel -que no son caros- y es mas comodo.

    I just cannot say enough good things about this product. My first impression out of the box is that it is attractive and well made. Within minutes of having it out of the box, I had a café latte going at full speed. It is just that easy. Once you load all the ingredients, you have a delicious coffee house creation of your own in a matter of a few minutes. So far, I have only made Café latte. I have some coconut milk and cannot wait to make a coconut latte. This machine makes fantastic hot chocolate too. The best thing I have found besides the awesome lattes is the fact that everything you make comes out piping hot, which is a great benefit I think. I posted a couple of pictures of my first batch of café latte for your viewing pleasure. If you do purchase this machine, which I highly recommend, please be sure to buy either the paper filters or the reusable filter. The machine does come with approximately five filters to get you started, but if you are like me, that just only last me two days. Even if coffee is something you do not care for, you can also use this item to make tea lattes. Chai tea would be a great thing to make a latte with. Cleanup is a breeze and I have no issue with not being able to place the carafe in the dishwasher. It has to be hand washed and I do so immediately after each use.

    I used it almost every day for four months and it made a delicious cup of coffee. However, the pitcher lid fits too tight on the glass which caused the glass from the pitcher top to break off making the latte maker unusable. I don’t know if it was an issue only with the pitcher that I received but I’m skeptical of investing in another one because of the pitcher build quality.

    

12. Family Verified Buyer – 10 February 2025

    Never have I been so thrilled my coffee maker broke on me as I am now because I would not have ventured into this if not for that! I am over the moon with this product!!! Makes coffee or latte’s perfect!!!! No more need for coffee bean and tea leaf unless I’m traveling. It’s THAT good!

    

13. Anonymous Verified Buyer – 14 February 2025

    This machine is loved by so many, why can’t Mr. Coffee make this again? It’s definitely not a sophisticated machine but that’s why I love it. My carafe broke over a year ago but as you can see in the photo I kinda fixed it with tape… I’m trying to baby this carafe as long as I can. Impossible to find another carafe unless you pay over $500 for a totally new machine. I’m actually considering it. I don’t know why or how, but this simple set up makes Starbucks level lattes. Mr. Coffee look at this picture and please help us! Bring this back and we’ll love you forever.

    

14. paul Verified Buyer – 16 February 2025

    DO NOT BUY. The machine is ridiculously priced because it’s being discontinued. I bought this exact same machine years ago on coffeemakers.us.com for less than $50. The glass carafe had cracked. We tried to order a replacement and it has been discontinued and unable to buy replacement parts. Don’t pay $500 for this because if you break a part, you are stuck with an overpriced machine that can’t be replaced. It works pretty good but NOT worth that ridiculous price. It’s not worth $100. They no better selling this for that ridiculous price.

    

15. Tania A Verified Buyer – 17 February 2025

    I have had mine for 6 years and it’s AMAZING!!! I love it and every time we have guests over, they ask where we got it. The only bummer is that i bought mine for $99 and now they sell for $200. I want to get another one, but they’re too expensive now. Nothing has melted or destroyed, like I read on an earlier review. Those pictures that were posted by someone, showed “melted plastic”, but it looks like old dried coffee that was peeling off the bottom that was never washed. Mine is in perfect condition 6+ years, but I took really good care of it.

    My Krups coffee/espresso maker quit and I needed a replacement. I rarely used it for cappuccino because it was too much of a pain so I wanted something simpler. After reading the reviews here, I decided to try this unit but expected to be disappointed. (I’m still concerned about it breaking after a few months so will update later.) The pros are it’s easy, quiet, fast and produces an excellent latte so I’ll address some of the cons from other reviewers. -Not real espresso: If you do not want milk mixed with your coffee, and your coffee and foam must be steamed, this product is not for you. It uses the drip-process for the coffee and mixes in hot foamy milk. However, it doesn’t claim to be for espresso. -Not enough foam: I can’t figure this out unless the reviewers used whole milk or cream. 2% would work fine, and with skim or soy milk, you actually have to decrease the amount or you get way too much foam. -Foam isn’t dense enough: I stir the foam a few times before spooning it out of the pot and it’s dense enough for me but I’m not that picky. -Coffee not strong enough: Experiment for your own taste. It takes TWICE as much coffee as a regular coffee maker because you’re mixing it with milk. I use Starbucks Dark Roast Espresso (already ground–horrors!), and it’s fine for me. I had to switch to decaf one day because I was drinking too many lattes and only had Folger’s Hazelnut in the house but that was yummy, too. This isn’t an exact science; just play around with it. -Water level not well marked: Maybe this has been improved since some old reviews were posted but this isn’t a problem. There’s a white plastic indicator at the back of the water container. It has droplet-shaped cut-outs that clearly show 2 drops for the 2-cup level, 1 drop for 1-cup level. -Not dishwasher safe: It takes seconds to clean by hand. The coffee is so hot, you’ll have to wait to drink it anyway so clean the pot or at least rinse the pot and frother immediately so the milk doesn’t cook on. I was surprised at how quick and easy clean-up was from all the comments. If you’re having a problem, get one of those sponges with the long plastic handle that holds dishwashing soap. -Not for plain coffee: True. The frother/heater always has to be started to brew coffee so this will NOT replace your coffee maker unless you always want lattes–which is my new approach to mornings. HOWEVER you can make a regular 8 oz cup of coffee by substituting water for milk and using 4 oz of water in both the water container AND in the pot. Use 2 to 4 tablespoons of coffee depending on how strong you want the end result. -Permanent coffee filter not included: This type of filter isn’t included with most coffee makers so no surprise. It would be nice but no biggie. Buy one or use paper. Additional comments: Before your first brew, follow instructions and clean the unit by “brewing” with water in top container and the pot. My only other comment is to go ahead and make 2 cups instead of 1 or you’ll have to brew again in a few minutes. You’ll see; it’s that good. UPDATE: One month later and still loving my lattes every day. I have adjusted measurements so use 3 tablespoons of coffee, 1 1/2 cups water in upper container and 1/2 cup milk with 1/2 cup water in the pot. Perfect amount for larger mugs. Silk Vanilla Soy Milk is the best and even 1/2 cup makes more foam than I need.

    Interesting engineering concept for a coffee/espresso machine. It made great lattes for the first month and then lost it’s ability to make a good drink at all. In fact, I believe I have unknowingly been drinking plastic for the past few weeks. At the bottom of the pot, the black plastic lining that is used for heating, near the hot froth maker, seems to have completely melted off or slowly been chipped away by heat from the froth maker (I will be making a video very soon – you can also view photos of this on the customer images). Knowing that I’ve been drinking plastic for the last couple of weeks is just really upsetting and scary. Cleaning didn’t show me any wear and tear like this, and then I suddenly “chewed” my coffee :/. Wondering what I was chewing, I grabbed a piece of black tar like substance from my mouth, thinking it was just cooked milk or burned milk from the frother. But, it wasn’t – it was straight up black plastic. I then scrubbed the bottom of the pot, and ran the machine with water only – realizing very small black pieces were lifting from the bottom as it was frothing. Very small – small enough to look like a few coffee grinds. I made a regular latte then filled it with water (the video shows the dark colored froth left over) and I could clearly see the floating black plastic. This scares me because I don’t know how long I have been drinking plastic – the tiny black pieces of plastic are hard to see with milk or black coffee in the pot. When I went to dump the pot and clean it, it was very hard to tell that any plastic had even melted or chipped off at all. This just shows that this problem does not occur until the pot is in use. You won’t see this while cleaning, and you especially won’t see it with milk at the bottom of your pot! Smaller problems I had with this latte maker was: (1) rusting (2) the quality and quantity of coffee brewed (3) the froth itself. All the metal inside of the pot will rust quickly. The metal lining at the top of the pot, and the spinning froth maker inside of the pot. Even with proper cleaning and drying of the metal after every use, will not stop the metal from rusting. I would never leave any moisture, knowing it’s metal of some sort – and yet, it still rusted. I’m not sure why. After only a few weeks, the coffee grinds you use even when following the directions, won’t be entirely used. It seems the water spout doesn’t spread the water evenly throughout the coffee grind holder. I tried making all the coffee grinds sit as close to the water sprout so it would be used, making a good coffee – but after brewing, there were still untouched coffee grinds in the top. You’ll want a couple tablespoons of coffee grinds more than the directions to make that latte taste right. Those who are expecting real frothed milk may be sorely disappointed. The “froth” that the machine creates is not a real steamed milk that you would get in your coffee shop. The machine essentially whips milk with a “frother” until tiny bubbles are created. In conclusion, I would not recommend this product, unless you want “lattes” that look a lot better than they taste, or quick rusting and deterioration of the machine, which you won’t figure out until you accidentally drink plastic.

    Super easy to make a latte! I followed the instruction booklet and one for a regular latte. So I used vanilla coffee, soy milk, organic sugar and hazelnut syrup. Easy to clean also.

    

19. Susie Verified Buyer – 21 March 2025

    I bought my Cafe Latte machine from Mr.Coffee less than a month ago after reading many great reviews. I did not read anywhere about how easy the carafe breaks. The glass is very thin and customer service told me that this is not covered under warranty and I must spend $25 to replace the carafe. Please be aware when you buy this product! It does make a great latte, but you will end up spending more money to replace the equipment!!! ✘ No, I do not recommend this product.

    Muy buena cafetera, hace lo que dice de manera eficiente y con muy buenos resultados. Buen servicio del vendedor y a muy buen precio. En USA cuesta más del doble.
    

21. Beth Verified Buyer – 24 March 2025

    I got this to replace my Keurig coffee maker. I was tired of boring straight coffee with cream and sugar and stopped by starbucks every now and then which can get expensive fast. I was worried that this wouldn’t brew fast enough but a nice latte takes under 5 minutes once you get the hang of throwing everything in. It gets a wonderful froth going and is great with regular milk or soy milk. I’ve used almond but that gets quite a bit less froth. Some things to note if you’re moving from keurig, there’s a little more stuff to clean, the carafe and the lid and the frother need a quick rinse and I usually pull out the coffee filter after using it so it stays clean.

    I love this little machine!!! My new favorite kitchen gadget!!! If you use and take care/clean it as instructions suggest, you will have no problem! It brews the espresso and froths the milk flawlessly!!!! I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of this latte maker for the price! (A plus, should something happen to the carafe, lid, brew basket, froth whisk…. You can purchase replacement parts at Mr Coffee website for a reasonable price) …if you use Starbucks espresso in your latte… It tastes exactly like the $5+ latte I would purchase at Starbucks regularly!!!! This little gem is a real money saver for any latte lover!! Highly recommend!!!

    My boyfriend bought me this for my birthday due to the fact he felt I was spending too much money at Starbucks (oops!). I have had it for a month now and I love it! No, it is not going to make a latte exactly like your local barista does, but it is close enough to make me happy. Really easy to work, add in a cup max of water, fill the compartment with a few tablespoons of grounds, add milk to the appropriate line in the pot, and flip the switch to begin. Takes a few minutes to brew, and I use espresso beans and skim milk. FYI it comes with a few paper filters so I bought a $6 permanent filter off coffeemakers.us.com instead. To the users who had issues with the glass shattering on the pot, the only thing I have done to try to prevent the same from happening is to wait until the pot has cooled to clean. Otherwise I’ll just be hopeful! For the cost and after reading all of the reviews, I am happy with my latte maker!

    BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!! I have used this coffee maker for for my morning coffee since Dec 16th, 2015. This morning I made my usual morning coffee, but the carafe was cracked and I ended up with coffee all over my counter. Called coffeemakers.us.com this morning to see if I could order a replacement carafe. Found out that my purchase of this coffee maker on Dec 16th, 2015, was fulfilled by coffeemakers.us.com for the reasonable price of $79.98. To replace this coffee maker from their third party vendor today would cost $499.95. What a ripoff! This coffee maker is not a commercial coffee maker. This coffee maker has no special bells and whistles . It is a basic coffee maker that in addition to making coffee, it mixes in the half and half or creamer with the coffee in the carafe. I questioned the woman with customer service about this over inflated price . She informed me that this is the third party venders list price and yes it is outrageous!!!!! Again, BUYER BEWARE!!!!!

    Really upset with the durability of this product. I’ve had it in use for only 1 year and the small plastic connector that keeps the frother attached to the pitcher just snapped! I have baby’d this machine since purchase and I am so disappointed. A small thing and the whole thing is now useless because the metal frother won’t stay pinned.
