Nivona CUBE 4106 or Philips Baristina?

What actually differs between the Nivona CUBE 4106 and the Philips Baristina, and what that means for who you are.

What differs

  • The Baristina is €166.00 cheaper.
  • This is the decision that matters: the CUBE 4106 is a bean-to-cup, the Baristina a portafilter machine. That decides whether you brew it yourself or press a button.
  • Both have a built-in grinder, so you do not need to buy one.
  • Neither has a milk system. For a cappuccino you need a separate milk frother.
