Coffee machine recommendation

[Purplerain1144]

I am looking for bean to cup coffee machine recommendations please! £250 maximum. Finding looking online incredibly overwhelming 😬
Thank you!

The delonghi manual machines are budget friendly and meant to be quite good! The BREVILLE VCF126 is on sale on curry’s currently, normally over £400 - my sister has this and it’s fab. I have a ninja and tbh it’s worth the money, but not within budget (although if you find it on sale it’s very good!).

I also recommend de Longhi

I love this one :

Sage bambino

Ah thanks but Im not after a pod one due to all the waste and expense

Will look at the other suggestions! Thank you

Thank you. Husband wants the ninja but it's so expensive isn't it!

@Purplerain1144 it is very expensive! I have to say I totally adore it though and it makes an excellent coffee. In my experience totally foolproof too, my MIL house sat for a week and managed to use it successfully and she’s a self confessed gadget killer - we’ve had to buy her one for Christmas 😂

Would you consider a refurbished one?
I got a Sage Barista Express Impress just over a year ago for just over £300.
It’s great and as I used to have a pod machine it’s already paid for itself.

Seconding the Sage Barista Express Impress if you can get a refurbed one in budget! Brilliant machine. Love ours.

Phillips are great. We have just bought a delonghi one and that is good too. We use ours every day, multiple times. Saves us a fortune

I’ve had Phillips and DeLonghi too and completely agree with you.

Look at Sage Baristas on Backmarket. We have a Sage Bambino (not bean to cup) and I would totally recommend the brand.

Did not know this was a thing! Where can you get a refurbished one from?

They’re now just over £400 from idoodirect on eBay.
