When shopping for the little luxuries, no one knows better than the world's most high-profile individuals, who integrate these luxuries into their everyday routines. That's why, when Brad Pitt recommends a coffee machine, we listen.
Pitt is the ambassador for the beloved Italian coffee maker brand De'Longhi, and in a recent campaign, he swore by the opulent De'longhi Eletta Explore Espresso Machine. To Pitt, wonderful coffee is an important part of a full life. 'For me, coffee is not just a simple drink; it creates connections, it allows you to carve out a moment dedicated to yourself, take a break and enjoy the moment,' he told People of his partnership with De'Longhi.
The fabulous hot and cold Eletta espresso machine can make over 50 recipes with the touch of a single button. It includes a built-in grinder, milk frother, and a quick cold brew maker. Whether you prefer an espresso, latte, iced cappuccino, or cold brew, this machine is the perfect option. Better yet, Pitt's favorite machine is currently on sale for 16% off at Amazon for Black Friday.
Few coffee machines have so many capabilities in one simple package. From cold to hot and back again, it can make over 50 One Touch recipes. Milk frothing and the built-in grinder are so amazing –it's no surprise it's loved by Hollywood's finest.
Though the price is steep, the machine comes highly recommended. In addition to making Brad Pitt's list, the Eletta was featured on Oprah's Favorite Things 2024. In her Eletta Explore Coffee Maker review, our in-house trained Barista and coffee expert Laura Honey called it 'one of the best coffee machines on the market' and referred to it as, 'like having a live-in barista.' Honey gave the machine a rarely-awarded 5 stars, for style, quality, and ease of use.
She wrote: 'If you have the money to spend, I wouldn’t question it. You should buy this coffee maker. It’s a delight to use, feels extremely premium, and I haven't stopped thinking about it for a whole year. Every time a sale season rolls around, the De'Longhi Eletta Explore is the first thing I search for.'
If you don't feel like you need all of those functions, Pitt also recommends the slightly more streamlined, and affordable De'longhi La Specialista Arte Evo Espresso Machine. This machine looks gorgeous and stylish, just like it's larger counterpart. Luckily, it's also on mega-discount for Black Friday.
If you're into Brad Pitt's recommendations but don't want to spring for the full price of the Eletta machine, this Pitt-approved alternative has many of the same capabilities. Plus, it's on major discount for Black Friday.
Alongside these discounts, our appliance editor has spent the last week scouting out the best Black Friday coffee maker deals that are worth the investment this year. Here are some of her favorites.
