BrewSift earns a commission on some purchases. It never changes our scores. Why you can trust us
Should you buy it?
Buy it if
- Black-coffee purists
- Small counters
- Swiss build quality
- Genuinely compact footprint for a bean-to-cup
Skip it if
- No milk system - espresso and coffee only
- Expensive for two drink specialties
- Brew unit is sealed, not user-removable like Philips
Not for you? Consider the Philips 3200 Series LatteGo — or see all super-automatic espresso machines .
The verdict
The ENA 4 is deliberately narrow and deliberately simple - JURA specifies grinding, tamping and brewing a cup in under a minute, with two drink specialties and no milk system at all. That makes it the wrong machine for a latte household and the right one if you want JURA's build, grinder and brew unit without paying for a milk carafe you would never use.
