The best coffee makers are an expensive investment, but they can save you a lot of money in the long term as you get coffee-shop-level drinks in your home. Right now, you can buy the Breville The Barista Express at Amazon for $549.95 (was $699.95), which brings one of our best-rated espresso machines down to its lowest price this year in the Black Friday sales.

The Breville The Barista Express has dropped to this price several times throughout the year, but it’s an all-or-nothing approach. It either costs the full price or it’s on sale at just under $550. Now is the time to dodge that full price tag. It also means you get a fantastic coffee machine with some smart features that ensure you enjoy barista-level quality here, all without leaving your home.

Our Breville The Barista Express review goes into depth about the coffee maker, giving it a very respectable 4.5 stars out of five. We appreciated its beautiful design, but also how it’s genuinely “fun to make barista-style coffee at home.” It also has a great “integrated burr grinder”, even if it is rather “large on the worktop.”

Breville is a name you often see when seeking out the best espresso machines and this one offers all you could need to tempt you away from buying coffee at the local coffee shop.

Its built-in coffee grinder is simple to use while still giving you plenty of control over the grind size, while the digital temperature control means you always get water at the exact temperature you want. You can make this coffee maker as intricate or as simple to use as you like.

Going down the path of producing great results with minimal hassle, there are some excellent air fryer deals around. Buy one of these and you can cook up a delicious breakfast while your coffee brews.
