Straight to the Point

You can find more of our favorite kitchen-related Prime Day deals here.

Breville has so! many! espresso machines. We even tested all of them to find out which ones were worth their salt. The Barista Express stood out as a beginner-friendly machine: It had a built-in grinder, precise temperature control, and an automatic steam wand. Really, it came with everything you need to make a great cappuccino at home (including a tamper and frothing pitcher!)—except for the beans, of course. Right now, for Amazon Prime Day, it’s a rare $200 off.

Why It Won Our Review

During our tests of Breville’s many espresso machines, the Breville Barista Express proved itself to be a great entry-level option. While its features aren’t as fancy as some of Breville’s other models (for example, it doesn’t have a touchscreen or dual boiler), the Barista Express is straightforward, reliable, and more affordable. 

Its clearly labeled buttons make it easy to operate and the built-in grinder has 16 settings. You can also adjust how much coffee is dosed into the filter basket. Thanks to its precise temperature control, the Barista Express produces great-tasting espresso, and its steam wand is powerful enough to make silky smooth microfoam. This Amazon Prime Day, you can get the Barista Express for $200 off.
