Bartesian

US orders over $50 ship free to all 50 states. Orders usually leave within 2 business days, with delivery targets of 7 business days for standard and 4 for expedited shipping; Alaska and Hawaii may see limited tracking. Canada has its own store in Canadian dollars with free shipping over $60, the UK store sells in pounds with free shipping over £50, and Bartesian also ships to France, Germany and Italy. Australians buy through JB Hi-Fi and The Good Guys. We found no published Christmas order-by date, and Advent Calendar pre-orders do not count toward free shipping.

You can cancel an order within 4 hours through the confirmation email, and shortages must be reported within 5 days of delivery. Machines bought on Bartesian.com can be returned within 90 days for any reason (15% restocking fee if opened or used). Unopened capsules must be on the way back within 15 days and accessories within 30, both with a 15% fee, and opened capsules cannot be returned.

The one-year warranty in the US and Canada covers repair or replacement at Bartesian's option. You pay shipping both ways, glass, filters and normal wear are excluded, and you need the receipt. Owners' complaints center on leaks and failures near the end of that year, so register the machine and keep it clean.

Four machines share the same capsules: the Classic ($399.99, four spirit bottles and a touchscreen), the Premier ($399.99, added in 2026), the Professional ($399.99, lockable bottles for bars and offices) and the compact Duet ($299.99, two spirit bottles and a rotary dial). Each mixes at four strengths from mocktail to strong and works with vodka, gin, rum, whiskey and tequila.

Capsules come in boxes of 8 ($24.96, or $19.99 on subscription) and, for many flavors, 32 ($71.99). The range covers classics such as margaritas, Old Fashioneds and Cosmopolitans, low-calorie versions, seasonal releases and US-only Refreshers, plus a 4-capsule Cocktail Sampler ($9.99) and a 12-capsule 2026 Advent Calendar ($34.99).

Accessories include the Appliance Cleaning Solution ($19.99) and a Clear Cube Ice Maker ($35), and bundles combine machines with capsules or barware.

Choose the Duet if counter space is tight or you drink one or two spirits: it is the narrowest model at 9.5 inches wide, costs $100 less, and works with every capsule except the Long Island, which needs more spirits.

Choose the Classic or Premier if you want four spirits on hand and the full capsule list. The Classic uses a touchscreen and holds one extra bottle, and both cost $399.99. The Professional costs the same and adds lockable bottles, which suits shared spaces, bars or homes where you want to limit access to the spirits.

All models make about the same drinks and use the same capsules, so buy on size and how many spirits you keep. Buying direct gives you the 90-day return window, and a 4-capsule sampler is a cheap way to test flavors before you subscribe.

The steadiest saving is the capsule subscription: Bartesian advertises up to 35% off cocktails, 50% off accessories and free shipping, and an 8-capsule box drops from $24.96 to $19.99. Deliveries come every one, two or three months, and you can skip or cancel without penalty.

Bundles pair a machine with capsules, glassware or barware from $279.99 to $589.99; the store shows a higher combined value next to each, which is its own figure. In the UK, the site's holiday banner on 1 November 2026 offered £100 off the cocktail maker, and the Classic was listed at £199.99. Black Friday falls on 27 November 2026.
