Our top 10 coffee makers and machines for a stylish caffeine hit

Ah, coffee. Bringer of energy, enthusiasm, productivity… And, yes, a shaky, tear-filled meltdown mid-afternoon if you have too much. But that’s all the more reason to make your morning cup of caffeinated nectar one to savour. With all the coffee makers and machines on offer, there’s sure to be something that fits your taste and budget. Here are some of our new favourites to encourage you to take the plunge(r). 

DeLonghi Nescafe Dolce Gusto Mini Me

Picture 5 of 10

Legendary Italian brand DeLonghi has teamed up with Nescafe to make a compact coffee machine aimed at people who want to make coffee-shop style drinks at home but without having to grind beans, foam milk, or do much at all apart from pop in a pod, select the right volume, and switch it on. You can make everything from espresso to chai tea, and it comes in a range of colours, including indigo, red, and matt black. The fact that it looks like it could star in a WALL-E sequel is incidental, but only adds to its appeal.

It's £80 from Amazon.

  • Using modern or latest coffee machine may sometimes give us headache in the operation and maintenance. Sometimes also the tastes are affected that’s why some coffee shops are using the traditional way or the old coffee machine to avoid problem in the operation and maintain customer to keep on coming back.

  • “Stylish” is just shorthand for “looks count for more than how well it works”. I’ve been able to test most of these machines over the past few years, and other than as a kitchen design centerpiece they will all end up in landfills in two years.
