De’Longhi Magnifica S Smart Automatic bean-to-cup coffee machine
Best bean-to-cup coffee machine under £500
Star rating: 5/5
Offering five drink options, including flat whites and lattes, this smart-looking bean-to-cup model impressed us with its simple, user-friendly design.
It comes with an adjustable spout to accommodate a range of cup sizes, and the 1.8-litre water tank comes out from the front, so you don’t need to pull the whole machine out to refill it each time. It also produced aromatic, rich espresso with glossy crema.
We haven’t seen the Magnifica go below £319 this past year and we’re not expecting to see the price go much lower, so it’s worth snapping up these deals while they’re around.

Most stylish espresso maker
Star rating: 4.5/5

It produces 15-bars of pressure to extract richly dark and crema-topped espresso, packed with flavour. With an efficient and moveable milk steam wand, it’s excellent value for money for under £200 and one of our favourite espresso machines.

KitchenAid Artisan espresso machine
Best blowout espresso machine
Star rating: 4.5/5
The Artisan edition of KitchenAid’s espresso machine is a stylish kitchen addition. It has a low, slimline footprint but a hefty metal body that gives it good stability on its grippy base. It’s a classy, pricey unit that fully delivers in terms of coffee quality, steam wand efficiency and we also appreciated the accessories included (which is where many machines fall).

Smeg ECF01 espresso machine
Best home espresso machine for aficionados
Star rating: 4.5/5
This sleek and stylish 1950s-style coffee machine not only looks great, but produced a rich, dark espresso with a robust, silky crema. Don’t be fooled by its simple three-button interface, this model takes a little time to get to know. But once you’re acquainted, it’ll produce top-quality espresso time after time.

Lavazza Deséa coffee pod machine
Best all-round coffee pod machine
Star rating: 5/5
Feature-rich versatility is one of the Desea’s biggest strengths, along with its user-friendly controls and ability to make excellent coffee. Unlike most coffee pod machines, it will foam milk at the same time.

Melitta Purista Series 300 bean-to-cup coffee machine
Best bean-to-cup coffee machine for basic utility
Star rating: 3.5/5
This bean-to-cup does the basics really well. The height-adjustable spout accommodates a variety of mug sizes. The grinding process was also relatively quiet compared to other machines tested against it. Although there is no hot water function or Americano function, the machine will make a 200ml cup of black coffee when set to max.

After a slimline coffee machine that can draw single and double shots and froth milk? The Sage Bambino Plus is a brilliant choice. This easy to use machine impressed us in test thanks to its intuitive control panel and impressive milk frother. Each shot pulled was rich and thick – just what we were looking for.

Smeg BCC02 bean-to-cup coffee machine
Best designed bean-to-cup coffee machine
Star rating: 5/5
Rated 5/5 stars by BBC Good Food experts during testing, this compact bean-to-cup is considered one of our Star Buy coffee machines. The rounded lines and statement 1950s style is undeniably Smeg, but surprisingly for its category, it doesn’t have a footprint that dominates the kitchen countertop. In fact, it’s one of the smallest bean-to-cup coffee machines on the market, combined with contemporary style and offering eight coffee functions and an efficient milk frother.

De’Longhi La Specialista Arte
Best mid-range espresso machine for freshly ground coffee
Star rating: 5/5
This model, rated 5/5 stars by our expert reviews team, is a great choice for beginners – and even better if you like to experiment with different bean roasts and varieties.
Dosing and grinding is all done automatically – simply choose a grind setting on the control panel (11 settings are selectable) and the beans will be freshly ground from the hopper. You can also adjust the dose to your liking.
Compressing the coffee grounds is the hands-on part, and a silicone tamping mat and heavy tamper are included to help with this.
A stainless steel milk jug is also provided, to steam milk into microfoam for cappuccinos and lattes, plus there’s a dual-height cup tray for short and long drinks.

How to get a good deal on coffee machines
- Do your research first: use our product reviews and buyers’ guides to help you decide on the best coffee machine based on factors including your budget, space available, desired features and programmes, to help ensure you’re not lulled into buying something that’s not right for you. Our star ratings out of five will also flag the best of the best, like the Smeg BCC02 Bean to Cup coffee machine and the Sage the Barista Express coffee machine review.
- Set a budget: deals events can become overwhelming. Deciding a budget range in advance can help you stay focused on what you want, but also be reactive to the right deal.
- Familiarise yourself with product RRPs: this will help you recognise the really valuable opportunities to save.
- Use additional tools: for example, CamelCamelCamel will show you the price history of Amazon products.
- Only buy what you can afford: set a budget before you start shopping and stick to it so that you are not persuaded to buy something that costs more than you should spend.
How to shop safely online
If a coffee machine deal seems too good to be true, there’s a good chance it is. You can reduce the risk of being duped by only buying from brands you trust, and avoiding private sellers or unfamiliar sites.
Always use secure payment methods when shopping online, and avoid giving away any personal information that seems similar to security questions, like your place of birth or mother’s maiden name – as these can be used to guess passwords.
We also won’t be adding any deals to this page unless we’re fully comfortable with the retailer. For further tips and advice, read our guide on how to avoid online scams when shopping on the internet.

Which coffee machine should you buy?
Whether you’re purchasing a coffee machine for the first time, or you’re looking to upgrade, deciding between one model and another can isn’t always easy – especially with such a range of products to choose from.
We’ve outlined the key differences between bean-to-cup, espresso, and coffee pod machines, to help you decide which coffee machine to buy.
- Bean-to-cup coffee machines: These gadgets are all about convenience: they grind and press the coffee beans and make espresso all in one go, so you get fresh tasting coffee every time. The thing to be mindful of is price, as some models can be expensive. If you’re using your machine every day, they may also require more regular cleaning, especially those with a fresh milk operating system.
- Coffee pod machines: These machines are generally simple to use, fast, and mess-free, and coffee pods also tend to stay fresher for longer than beans or grounds. You can only make one cup at a time, though, and some pods aren’t always recyclable – ESE (easy serve espresso) pods are a good compostable alternative.
- Espresso machines: If you want a machine with a more hands-on approach, manual espresso machines use the same tamp-and-pack technique you might see baristas doing in coffee shops. They traditionally come with a portafilter that fastens into the machine, through which espresso is extracted, topped with silky crema. If you want to be able to make cappuccinos and lattes, look for a model that also comes with a steam wand.
How to calculate your kilowatt hour usage
Coffee machines can vary in their energy efficiency and usage. As a general rule of thumb, the more functions and settings a coffee machine has, e.g. milk frothing and in-built grinding, the more power it’s likely to use. It’s easy to work out a coffee machine’s kilowatt hour usage by using this simple sum.
Take the coffee machine’s wattage (we’ve listed the wattage above) multiply it by the coffee machine’s usage per day in hours, then divide the total by 1000. The result is your coffee machine’s daily kilowatt hour usage (kWh). Coffee machines only run for a short amount of time, so you’ll need to work out the time in decimals, for example half an hour is 0.5.
