Plan your purchase
- Choose your type and budget. Start with our best espresso machines guide or the machine finder.
- Shortlist models. Read the comparisons, such as Breville Barista Express vs Gaggia Classic.
- Add the grinder and accessories. Machines without a grinder need one. See best espresso grinders.
- Check price history. A price tracking tool shows whether a Black Friday price is lower than usual.
Brand deals
Premium brands such as Breville often run promotions on their own sites as well as on Amazon. See our Breville Black Friday deals guide.
How to judge a deal
- Compare the price with recent history, not just the crossed-out price.
- Check the exact model and what is included.
- Check who sells and ships it, and the warranty.
- Check the return policy for the sale period.
- Avoid buying a machine you have not researched just because it is cheaper.
Gift ideas for coffee lovers
Accessories make easy gifts: a scale, a tamper, a milk pitcher or a descaler. See espresso accessories, scales and pitchers.
Before then
If you do not want to wait, Prime Big Deal Days on October 6 and 7 may also include coffee gear.
Common deal traps
- A high list price that makes a normal price look like a big discount
- An older model sold as if it were the latest version
- A bundle that includes accessories you do not need
- Third-party sellers with unclear warranty or return terms
What to buy first
If you are building a setup, buy the machine you have already researched, then add a grinder or accessories as separate deals appear. Accessories and grinders are often discounted alongside machines.
