Bartesian プロフェッショナルカクテルメーカー - ボトル5本 ロック可能なデザイン

I literally just got this, but I bought it to replace my Bev by Black and Decker because it was broken. The B&D was total trash even when it was new, and we often opted to make our own cocktails because they weren't all that good. I also went through multiple pods to get one drink because the B&D malfunctioned so often. We thought about not buying a new one but we heard good things about the Bartesian Professional Cocktail Maker Machine. It was super simple to set up (unlike the B&D). The most important thing is the quality of the drinks though. This Bartesian machine makes delicious cocktails, and the pours are more generous than the B&D. The light on the Bartesian was equivalent to the medium on the B&D. The Bartesian made a perfect drink the first time, so I didn't waste money on multiple pods. Some other things that are better on the Bartesian are the fact that the bottles are ridiculously easy to clean in comparison to the B&D. They have wide mouths, so I was able to easily use my bottle brush, and I can also pop them into the dish washer if I want to. The Bartesian uses gravity vs this crazy straw and sucking thing the B&D does to get the alcohol to make the drinks. The straws rarely seated correctly, so I would have to fight to get them locked into place. More often than not, I would think it was right, but then it would malfunction and there went a a wasted pod! The bottles and the straws were very hard to clean on the B&D too as the bottles had this tiny opening making it impossible to get a brush in the bottle to clean it. The Bartesian also has a seperate water reservoir which is super simple to clean and fill. I have only had this machine for a couple of hours, but so far the difference between the two machines is like night and day! I also bought this machine on sale, so it was even less money than I paid for the B&D. Totally worth the money. The foot print is about the same, so I was able to use the same pod storage under the machine. I am super happy I bought this machine, and I would totally recommend this Bartesian Professional Cocktail Machine.
