I test coffee makers for a living — here are 5 Black Friday deals I’d buy

Keurig K-Express: was $59 now $35 @ Walmart
SELLING OUT FAST! At just $35, this is one of the cheapest coffee makers I’ve ever seen. The K-Express comes with 6, 8, and 10-oz brew options as well as low water and descale indicators. The 36-oz water tank is removable for easy filling and it’s very compact in design, measuring just 11.3 x 6.5 x 12.2”. Colors are selling out fast though, with only red, teal and white remaining at the time of writing. 

Cuisinart Coffee Maker SS-16: was $199 now $139 @ Amazon
Whether you want to brew a single cup of coffee or a full carafe, this Cuisinart machine can facilitate. It can pour 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12-oz from a single pod, as well as up to 12 cups via the glass carafe. Useful functions include a ‘bold’ setting to increase flavor, and ‘over ice’ for optimal settings when making iced coffee. You can even adjust the water temperature for the carafe. It’s now the cheapest it’s ever been. 

Nespresso VertuoPlus by De'Longhi with Milk Frother: was $219 now $153 @ Amazon
While it’s $4 short of being the cheapest it's ever been, at $153, this deal is still great value for money. The VertuoPlus uses a centrifugal brewing system with pod barcode reading for optimal processing every time. It can produce four cup sizes (including single and double espresso), and features a milk frother, so you can craft lattes and cappuccinos. A starter set of Nespresso capsules is included too.

Café Smart Drip 10-Cup Coffee Maker with WiFi: was $279 now $179 @ Best Buy
CHEAPEST PRICE EVER! For a sophisticated and modern design, you can now get this Café coffee maker with a $100 discount, bringing it to the cheapest price ever. With Wi-Fi connectivity, you can adjust the temperature and strength of the coffee precisely, or set it to automatically brew when you want based on your preferred settings.

De'Longhi EC9255M La Specialista Arte Evo Espresso Machine: was $749 now $549 @ Amazon
At 27% off and a final price tag of $549, this De’Longhi machine is still relatively affordable, but you get some great features. This includes a built-in grinder that you can set precisely with 8 grind settings, as well as a steam wand for frothing milk for cappuccinos and lattes. Settings include espresso, americano, hot water and cold brew. The pressure gauge gives it an attractive finish too.
