This is horrendous device, I'm on my my 2nd coffee grinder within 18 months 😢 and the motor has failed again. No customer service from Joy Resolve.

Here we still are....

Further to my previous- we are now a year on and the company still hasn't delivered the item paid for. Several fob offs constantly saying it will arrive October...December....etc. I have received no updates despite the company constantly updating me that I am "on their list" This has to be the worst customer service I have ever experienced. Requested a refund on the whole package seeing as they haven't delivered part of it and was blanked- offered a refund on the item missing but that makes the rest of the item pretty useless seeing as I bought it for tea. Absolutely shambles of a company. Cannot recommend to AVOID strongly enough...

Hello Alison,
Thank you for your feedback. We truly understand your frustration here; as we are as frustrated (if not more) as you are with the delay. The Brew-chamber is on Pre-order; which means its ordered before its ready to ship. We have been working tirelessly to get this made, shipped and out to our customers as quickly as possible. As mentioned in our update (https://youtu.be/e0_fbj-INrI) most of this has been out of our hands due to factories. We have emailed you to keep you in the loop multiple times; but I think they must have gone into your spam folder perhaps. We are happy to offer you a refund for this delay and co-operate as you wish here. Again; we are sorry for the delay and appreicate your patience. Emily will be following up personally.
Team Joy Resolve.

Excellent product impeccable customer service

I LOVE this product it has completely changed my mornings into a tranquil and pleasant experience rather than running around stressed and needing a tea/coffee.

Also, their customer service is the best I have ever received, particularly from a staff member called Emily, when I had a problem she resolved the issue extremely quickly and so pleasantly. She was an absolute dream to communicate with and I highly recommend this company not only due to the product but because of her delightful and professional customer service.

LOVE my Barisieur

LOVE my Barisieur! beautifully designed, and makes a damn good cup o’ joe. yes, it’s a bit pricey and pretentious for some people, but it was a Christmas gift, and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. I recently had a fast and efficient resolution to replacing my rubber bung for my creamer, which is not listed on the website as a replacement. however, customer rep Emily Adams shipped me a new one here in Hong Kong within 24 hours. Very helpful and courteous. (still waiting on my Double Walled Glass and Glass Barrel Chamber to increase my coffee volume, but I understand production has been slow-going, so I’m patiently waiting…) cheers!

The perfect way to wake up!!!!

Absolutely love this thing! The only drawback is that the cup is a little small and I’m addicted to cream and sugar lol!
But it is an utter dream to not have to wake up to a loud alarm that wakes my kids up and jsut wake up to the delicious smell of coffee. Thanks so much guys!

Thank you for the wonderful review. We are actually in the process of making a larger cup and boiling vessel to prepare a larger brew. Stay tuned!

Happy customer !

I ordered the Barisieur coffee alarm clock in November 2020. There was an initial issue with one of my pieces of hardware over the holidays (freak accident, just an electrical flaw) and the team at JoyResolve was responsive and wonderful, overnighting me a new part at no cost. I've used my coffee alarm every day since and it's an absolute game-changer. Love the product, the company and the customer service. I'll definitely purchase more of JoyResolve's products!

I wake up with a smile

One of most favorite purchases this year. It isn’t just a coffee machine, it’s a way of life. I wake up with the scent of coffee brewing 10 mins before my alarm clock. Usually I lay in bed for 30-45 mins but because of my joy resolve coffee maker I wake up gingerly before I am supposed to!

Good coffee and a centerpiece for attention

This is fun gizmo to have. It brews very good coffee, on par with V60 and similar and it is always a talking point for guests and visitors. I bought one the first Kickstarter ones, and it has worked well ever since. I am now upgrading with the new accessories. Had one problem with the glass for the water, but was replaced very quickly.

Milk cooler to noisy

This review is about the product made by Joy Resolve, (The Barisieur) not the sale of the item through thier website, as my item was purchased through a third party supplier.

Really nice looking product, unfortunately I was unable to try the coffee, as by 4am the noise got too much for me and I had to switch the unit off. Would be amazing if I didn’t use the milk cooler, I was unaware from the adverts for the item that the milk cooler operates on a set pattern of 15 minutes on and only 4 minutes off before back on for 15 minutes and that continues the whole time there is milk in the cooler. The cooling fans run at 35db (according to manufacturer), so basically the same as a computer fan running. Which, when right next to the bed as a bedside unit was sadly far too loud during the night for us, especially on a repetitive on/off pattern. Brilliant concept, amazing looking product, but sadly, in my opinion the milk cooler needs some refining to reduce the noise impact. Unit sent back for refund with the supplier.

Hi Gavin,
Thank you for leaving your honest review. Sorry to hear the 35db was too loud for you. Like we mentioned in our email you can turn the cooler off If you are a light sleeper. We are taking your points on board and will speak with our software engineer. Great to hear that you still want to use our product in the future if we just fix this noise for you.
Kind Regards

Success in the face of adversity!!

Here is what I wrote in an email to Joy Resolve;

I wanted to let you know that the barisieur arrived for my wife, a little late as you told me, but never the less she absolutely loves it!
So I just wanted to let you know that we are impressed with what a great bit of kit it is, and as importantly that your honesty and humility, as well providing a solution that helped out with late Christmas presents has gained you many recommendations.
Im sure you had a lot of ‘grumbling’ emails, so I thought I would try and offset that with one of a bit of praise!

Never received product

Never received product. Was scheduled for delivery week of Christmas and originally customer service kept in contact but once UPS closed the claim I reached out again twice and heard nothing back. $300 product with no delivery signature is a big fail and not communicating about a replacement also a big fail.

The product is great

The product is great and a joy to own. Costumer support also was really helpful, since there was a problem with my product at first, but it was sorted out quickly and I like businesses that stand behind what they sell.

Really disappointed…

Really disappointed- my parents ordered me the coffee maker for Xmas but it didn't arrive in time. They've tried to email for a solution but have been blanked by customer service. This appears to be a trending issue reading the other reviews. Approach this company with caution as once they've got your money they stop responding to any problems.

Hi Liv, Thank you for your review. Sorry you were one of the customers in the UK that got effected by the Channel Tunnel Closure (which caused major delays across the UK and not just with our company). We did send an email out to everyone as soon as we found this out as it was out of hands. We have responded to 100% of our customers over this period - could you supply us with an email address/ order number so we can check your enquiry? Other than the lateness of the product arriving. Do you like the product?
We look forward to hearing from you,
Joy Resolve

Nice looking product marred by poor service…

Nice looking product for sure but unfortunately experience badly marred by delay after delay in delivering. Ordered 27 Nov. There were successive delays. Was initially assured it would be with me by 18th Dec, then 22nd, 24th, 31st then 4th Jan. It eventually arrived on 5th Jan. Too late for the birthday it was initially intended for and also for Christmas. Response from customer service was initially prompt but I have had no response to my latest email. I am also expecting the tea brew chamber but no word on that. A case of over promising and under-delivering which has sadly made for a poor experience overall.

Thanks for your review. We are truly sorry that your parcel was one of those affected by the Channel Tunnel closure due to covid-19. We can completely appreciate your concern and frustration - as a company we were so disappointed and frustrated too, as we worked very hard to get customers their deliveries in time for Christmas.
The reason that the delivery date kept changing was because of the significant delays due to the closure, the build up of lorries at the border and the increased COVID checks on all hauliers. We believe we answered your emails and kept you promtly updated to the best of our ability and we are sorry to not be able to assist you further. Hopefully we can provide you with a free spare glass cup to ease the pain of the delays?
Kind Regards

BRILLIANT customer service. Thank you.

As a follow up to the first rather grumpy review, i would like to say just how brilliant Joy Resolve has been in dealing with my issue. They had technically done nothing wrong but contacted me and offered a solution, which they didn't need to do and I think this wonderful company deserves lots of credit. Great customer service and i will be recommending their product and service to everyone i know. Big shout out to Emily (Customer service and ops manager). thank you. very impressed.

Your instructions on plug assembly…

Your instructions on plug assembly could be clearer.The plug supplied was a 2 pin that fitted into a uk plug adapter

Hi Michael, Thank you for the feedback. Are you referring to the EU to UK plug adapter assembly?

Great product and customer service

Great product and customer service.

I love my Barisieur. Looks cool and makes lovely tea. Haven’t tried making coffee in it yet. The only annoying thing is it makes such a small cup of tea! I bought a second cup so I could have a second one brewing whilst I drank the first one, but that’s a bit tricky to do as the flask is hot!

Would recommend both the product and the company.

Hello Miss A; Thank you so much for taking the time to give your kind review despite the disatisfaction of the volume of tea you are managing to get from it. The good thing is, that we have the perfect new product for you. It's called the brew chamber and it will be able to produce you a perfect cup of tea more than once, and you wont have to re-boil it!

https://www.facebook.com/commerce/products/4409008862507551/?ref=mini_shop_storefront&referral_code=mini_shop_page_card_cta

It's not ready yet but will be soon and you can pre-order it if you would like.

Thnaks again, please stay in touch :)
