Amazon Prime Day is now live in Australia, and I’m spending the majority of my time seeking out the very best Prime Day coffee machine deals. Fortunately, I’ve not been disappointed, with huge savings on many of our favourite machines here at TechRadar.
The highlight, however, has to be a mega saving on the superb Ninja Luxe Café Premier espresso machine, which drops to a new all-time low in Australia of AU$497.99 for the stainless steel model.
That smashes a previous low price of AU$629 that I spotted during Black Friday last year, and means that if you’ve been holding out on getting the viral-hit coffee maker, this Prime-exclusive deal presents the perfect opportunity.
As we said in our 4.5-star Ninja Luxe Café review, this bean-to-cup coffee machine is worth the hype. Our tester said it was “an espresso machine anyone can master” that offers pro-level drinks without the effort. It’s all thanks to various technologies that determine the ideal grind size and automatically froth milk, meaning anyone can be an at-home barista. Please note the RRP has been taken from Ninja’s official Australian store.View Deal
If you have yet to come across this popular Ninja machine, it is essentially a versatile three-in-one bean-to-cup system designed to cater to a wide range of coffee preferences. It is capable of extracting a quality espresso, preparing cold brew, and delivering classic drip coffee.
An automatic steam wand is also included for those who favour milk-based drinks. Ninja describes it as “the ultimate guided experience,” with its Barista Assist Technology offering step-by-step support throughout the process.
In practical terms, whatever your coffee of choice, the Ninja Luxe Café Premier espresso machine is equipped to handle it. It also encourages experimentation with different recipes, without the need for proper barista training.
A selection of single-, double-, and quad-shot filter baskets is included, making it equally suited to preparing multiple coffees at once or a stronger, more concentrated serve when needed.
While it’s sensibly priced in the world of premium coffee machines, AU$1,049.99 is still a hefty purchase. That said, our reviewer identified only a few reasons not to buy it: if you need to brew large batches of coffee, want a dedicated hot water line or are looking for a compact machine.
If this doesn’t sound like you, or you’re simply swayed by the AU$552 saving, then you’ll likely want to be quick to snap one up, as they tend to sell out fast.
