Is the Mr-Coffee Cafe Barista worth $239.99?

At $239.99 at Best Buy as of November 8, 2026, it is the lowest of the five new prices we track. You pay for the milk frother and automatic cleaning, not for a grinder or dual-cup brewing.

Does it grind coffee beans?

No. It has no integrated grinder, so you need pre-ground coffee or pods. A separate burr grinder would add to the cost.

Can it make two cups at once?

No. Capacity is one cup, so you brew each drink separately. That is slow if several people want coffee at the same time.

What comes in the box?

The machine, a reusable filter and a removable water tank. Check the listing for a scoop or frothing pitcher, since those are not always included.

How often does it need cleaning?

It has an automatic cleaning function for the brew path. You still need to rinse the drip tray and water tank by hand regularly.

Espresso machines tend to dip during holiday sales and after new models launch. Watch the price history for drops below the current $239.99.

Our take on the Mr-Coffee Cafe Barista

The Mr-Coffee Cafe Barista is a one-cup automatic espresso machine with a built-in milk frother, a 15-bar pump and a removable water tank. It grinds nothing itself, so you use pre-ground coffee or pods, and it runs an automatic cleaning cycle. At $239.99 at Best Buy as of November 8, 2026, it sits at the low end of what the five stores listing it charge.
