I went to a newly opened target near my work last week and found a deal I couldn’t pass up, 209.99!!! It was the only machine available and I couldn’t believe it. I’d had my eye on the barista express for a long time and had been having a hard time justifying a 700.00 purchase given some upcoming non-negotiable expenses, and was planning for Black Friday to pull the trigger. Picture of barcode and machine immediately after unboxing. This is an upgrade from a lackluster performing kitchenaid kes6403 that had been gifted to me a while back.

    That’s great. Meanwhile, I’m struggling to get a decent deal in Pittsburgh area as I can’t find any. Trying to get a decent deal on a Infuser

    That’s absolutely wild! Congrats and enjoy!

    Love it and the black….Now start looking for a crazy deal on a grinder

  4. itsjamian

    I just bought one of these for £500 lmao. Enjoy, you lucky bugger!

  5. OptimisticCerealBowl

    insanely lucky deal. make sure to leave it by an open window to let the machine breathe, preferably at night with the security alarms disabled.

    This is a clear out – not a typical sale price. Which means this product no longer has a permanent home on this store so they lower the price aggressively to get it out the door. Lucky find

    i haven’t seen this matte black color before it looks so nice!!

    They are great little machines when they work. We had two of these in an office and after heavy use they all started leaking from the porta filter seal. We initially thought it was the wrong seals we bought but turns out this is a common issue and some internal screws get loose over time that hold together the whole brew head and porta filter locking mechanism.
    To get to those screws you need to basically do a full disassembly of the machine. After doing that on two machines I hate this machine like no other.

    Well done. I was about to pull the trigger on this for $400 a few years ago, but I let your subreddit talk me into a separate grinder and machine. I wound up with a DF64 and a Gaggia Classic Pro, so I ain’t mad.

    But for what you paid? Killer deal. GG

    That’s a great deal! I gave up on using my machine. It’s just too much work! Sticking with the Nespresso for now.

  11. Pristine-Cod-1969

    Wow, I may set foot again in a Target. What a deal.

  12. OMGitsJoeMG

    Holy crap, I have the barista express (but silver) already but I’d have to buy another if I saw this. Congrats!

  13. RAGE_CAKES

    Damn dude, thats straight robbery. Nice find

  14. FullOfMeeKrob

    Damn, just checked my target it’s still full price

  15. audiomagnate

    Wow. Awesome deal. I love my Breville bit their customer service is awful. They won’t sell parts directly to the consumer, just assemblies.

  16. TarnishedAmerican

    Wow that’s a crazy good deal, congrats!

  17. kimguroo

    You just made tons of people who are so excited for now and make trips to multiple Target stores then realized… nothing for me….. hahahaha. 

    My prediction is… less than 5 stores in entire US target stores so rate will be about maybe 0.3% chances….
    Good luck with everyone who will chase the machine haha.

    For reference, that’s less than what I paid Breville to fix the solenoid on my Barista Express when I sent it in for repair. Insane deal!

  19. LuckyCrook

    Can I price check this and buy it online?

  20. umamiking

    How does a newly open Target order a $700 Breville only to discount it 70%? Talk about luck.

  21. Backwards_is_Forward

    I really like that color, I wish I would have gotten that instead of the piano black that I currently have.

  22. Public_Year8312

    Wow what a great deal!! I’ve had mine for 8 years and I use it daily. I’m still waiting for it to malfunction/breakdown so that I have an excuse to upgrade.

  23. shmeg_thegreat

    Last year home goods had a bunch of barista pros marked at like $500, was the best deal I’ve ever found in real life

  24. SwimmingBonus9919

    Wow! Mine was $549 on sale last year. And you got black! A little jealous. Congrats!

  25. Historical_Baby5774

    That’s damn amazing!! You’re gonna love it; I’ve had mine for five years and use it every day. Take care of it and do proper maintenance and it’ll be a powerhorse. I make better lattes than a coffee shop now ❤️ My only regret is I got the stainless and not this black version haha.

    *side note can you go get me one?! 😆

  26. Sea_Promotion_9136

    Congrats, i got a barista pro display model 50% off at a best buy that closed down a couple years ago but damn, you got a good deal

  27. Damn. It’s even the color I would have wanted. Ugh. Why can’t I ever catch a break like this?
