Amazon's four-day summer sale begins today we combed through all the best kitchen deals to bring you the very best Prime Day espresso machine deals.
Prime Day espresso machine deal highlights:
If you spend a lot of money on espresso (or lattes, cappuccinos, Americanos, flat whites, etc.) at the coffee shop, an espresso machine can be a smart investment—as long as you get a quality model you’ll actually want to use every day.
You see, pulling your own espresso shot is an art, and it’s one a lot of people mess up. If you’re an espresso nerd who’s ready to invest in one of our favorite espresso machines, you’re in luck because some are already on sale. But if you just aren’t committed to actually learning the art of espresso, and you still want the ability to make great coffee drinks at home, we’ve also included included deals on some 100%-foolproof Nespresso machines that take the effort and guesswork out of pulling a perfect shot. Because the idea isn’t necessarily to get the absolute cheapest espresso machine or even the very best espresso machine—it’s to get the best espresso machine for you at the best price during Amazon's four-day summer sale, which starts today and runs through Friday, July 11.

Who can shop the Prime Day Sale
Historically, the very best Amazon Prime Day deals (a.k.a. the lowest prices on the best products) are reserved for Amazon Prime members. Prime members get free shipping on Prime Day deals too. If you’re not already a member and you want access to all of the best Prime Day espresso machine deals during this summer's four-day sale, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial before the sale starts. (What you do with that membership after the sale and before the end of the trial is between you and your browser.) That said, just like with the early Prime Day deals that popped up in the weeks leading up to the sale, there are still plenty of great deals to be found on Amazon and at competing retailers during the big Prime Day sale, no membership or coupon required. We've rounded the best Prime Day deals on espresso machines
The best Prime Day espresso machine deals
Breville Espresso Machines
For years, Breville’s espresso makers have outperformed most of the competition in our teams’ rigorous espresso machine product testing, and year after year at least a few best-selling models get marked down for Prime Day. You can't go wrong with a Breville espresso machine, so take your pick from these marked-down models.
Breville Barista Touch
If you lean more towards an automatic espresso machine but want to at least feel like you've learned to make your own espresso drink, now is the time to splurge (but also save!) on the Barista Touch. You can trust that nobody will be rolling their eyes at your hyper-specific coffee order–just choose from the many options for grind size, milk temperature, and brew time to make your perfect drink. There are also presets that allow you to make lattes, cappuccinos, and Americanos at the touch of a button. Easy.
Breville Duo Temp Pro
The Duo Temp is about as basic as Breville machines get (we're pretty sure new ones have actually been discontinued in the United States) but it’s still as reliable as any Breville machine. It uses a simple dial instead of the buttons of the fancier machines, but if you’re willing—or prefer—to go analog you can get this one on sale right now.
Breville Barista Express
Our rigorous testing has shown over and over again that Breville is consistently making some of the best espresso machines—and they're especially great for beginners. This particular semiautomatic espresso machine includes a built-in grinder and steam wand, and it was once one of our top picks (though we now prefer the Breville Bambino Plus).
Breville Infuser Espresso Machine
The Breville Infuser is essentially the Barista Express without the built-in grinder, and with a smaller footprint. If you would rather put the extra $35 toward some quality beans and don’t mind grinding your own (which isn't a bad idea), it’s a solid option.
De’Longhi Espresso Machines
Beyond Breville, the other big name in mid-priced home espresso machines is De’Longhi. If you’re not quite ready to make the leap to a high-end prosumer machine, a De’Longhi should work wonderfully for you—and right now there are a handful of models on sale, including what we think of as the brand's flagship model, the De’Longhi La Specialista Arte and our favorite De'Longhi model, the La Specialista Touch.
If you want our favorite De'Longhi machine, save on the La Specialista Touch
The La Specialista Touch is De’Longhi’s answer to the Breville Barista Touch and it's our favorite De'Longhi espresso machine right now. It's very user friendly, brews nine different types of drinks, and lets you save presets for grinding. It also has a cold extraction setting, and while it's not amazing cold brew, it's not bad either.
De'Longhi La Specialista Arte
The De’Longhi La Specialista Arte machines have similar features and functionality to the Breville Barista Express machines, and they’re equally user-friendly. The built-in steam wands aren’t quite as powerful as Breville’s, but they’re powerful enough. Plus, these machines are a little less messy thanks a screw-on dosing funnel and an optional step you can put under the portafilter that stops any stray splash when pulling a shot
De'Longhi La Specialista Arte Evo
The La Specialista Arte Evo is another great De’Longhi espresso machine that has what the machine above doesn’t: a preset for making cold brew. It’s a smart investment for first-time espresso machine investors who want to make a variety of cafe-quality espresso and coffee drinks at home—especially when it’s on sale.
De'Longhi Mangifica Evo
De’Longhi Magnifica Evo is an affordable automatic machine with seven presets, including espresso, cappuccino, latte, macchiato, and iced coffee. If you’re short on space, this is one is a little more compact than the La Specialista Arte.
Bosch espresso machines
If you want the best super-automatic espresso machine, save on the Bosch 800 Series
Think of a super-automatic espresso machine like an all-in-one espresso drink maker—because it is. This kind of machine takes all the guesswork out of weighing beans, grinding them to just the right consistency, and dialing in a shot. It does it all for you! And of all the super-automatic machines we've tested over the years, the Bosch 800 Series is our favorite. All of the Bosch machines we've tested are good, but this one makes dozens of drinks at the push of a button.

Nespresso machines
Okay, okay. Nespresso machines aren’t “real” espresso machines, but the Vertuoline machines make a damn fine cup of single-serve coffee as well as consistently good espresso-style shots (meaning they taste great and have a lovely crema on top) using centrifuge technology. Do they make the absolute best coffee in the world? No. But I promise it’s really good and if you’re still drinking whatever comes out of that crusty old Mr. Coffee you took to college, Nespresso’s single-origin offerings might even blow your mind.
