Top 5 Espresso Makers (2020)


Welcome to GetMojo, we do the research so you don’t have to! In this video, we’re offering our picks for the 5 best espresso makers on the market in 2020.

If you’re someone who can’t live without their daily espresso fix, then having a great product that can make it for you is absolutely key. But with so many on sale, which one should you buy? Well, to help you decide, we’ve sifted through numerous website and consumer reviews to present our 5 recommended products. Okay, first up.

The Front Runner

Breville Barista Express



If you want to simulate a coffee shop in your kitchen, then look no further. Breville has tons of quality coffee machines on the market, but this one is pretty special. For $560, this machine allows you to grind the beans yourself and customise pretty much every aspect of your morning brew - including tons of different grinder settings. There’s even a wand for adding steamed milk. It can take some getting used to using, but once you’ve got the hang of it, this great-looking machine will have you feeling like a pro.

The Comparable

Mr. Coffee Café Barista


If that Breville machine sounds a bit full-on, then this easy to use Mr. Coffee model, which streamlines a lot of the aforementioned coffee-shop chores, might be for you. Priced at $180, this extremely compact machine makes everything from espressos to lattes, thanks in part to its built-in milk frother. And you can use your own beans too, since it doesn’t use capsules. The reviewers at The Spruce said that “with this machine, it’s easy to make cappuccinos and lattes at the touch of a button."

The Hands-On Option

Flair Classic Manual Press


If you’re someone who takes pride in their coffee, and enjoys the meticulous manufacturing processes involved, then this hands-on product might just be the best thing you’ve seen. With no electricity required, this lever-pull espresso maker requires just coffee grounds and hot water to work - and elbow grease, of course. Incredibly easy to use, this $160 Flair model is also totally unique to look at. Want to outdo your coffee connoisseur companions? Well, this might just do it.

The Pod Option

Nespresso VertuoPlus by De'Longhi


If you prefer to pod, then look no further than the Nespresso VertuoPlus. Taking all the stress out of making an espresso, this pod machine is ridiculously simple to use, and allows you to easily experiment with a range of different flavours, thanks to the wide variety of pods on sale. Sure, pods are more expensive than buying beans, and not the same quality, but the machine itself is affordable at $135. Plus, if convenience is paramount, it doesn’t get any more carefree than this.

Before we take a look at our final pick, we wanted to give a few other Breville machines a shout-out - because as we said, there are numerous Breville models in contention for this list.

Breville Bambino Plus


Breville Barista Touch


The Budget Option

De'Longhi EC155


Cheap coffee makers are easy to come by. But cheap coffee makers that make good coffee? Not so much. Well, this $80 De'Longhi is an exception. Okay, so its espressos aren’t going to win any awards, but its mix of affordability, convenience and important features like a milk frother and built-in tamper, make it an awesome sub-$100 offering. And it looks sharp, too.

So, which espresso maker should you choose? Well, it’s easy to get carried away with coffee machines, so be sure that you don’t end up paying for features you’re rarely going to use.
