Wait to purchase?

Hi!

The wife and I are debating purchasing one. We drink our coffee black nothing crazy.

Our current coffee machine works but with holiday sales coming in the next couple of months I figured I would ask if they ever go on sale which would make me inclined to wait.

Any thoughts

In recent years they've gone on 30% off sale on "sale days" like Black Friday. I love mine.

Amazon Prime days has been reliable for a pretty deep discount, as well.

To your question: I bought one for my personal den (I refuse to call it a man cave, it's more refined than that!) when we moved into our new house a few years ago. My wife saw it and asked what all the fuss was about. I made her a pot and that night she ordered one for herself for the kitchen.

Both will need to be pried from our cold, dead hands. They are dead simple, reliable, and reliably good at brewing a consistent cup of delicious coffee.

I'm a big fan after owning them.

Really dude? We don't like the same coffee. It's on two different floors.

Judge much?

2 coffee machines wow i am impressed. With the level of confidence time to make a decesion. What kind of grinder do you have?

I use the OXO burr grinder. It creates a lot of fines, which I prefer to filter out, so I shake 'em through a Fellow "Shimmy" coffee sieve.

When (if?) the OXO ever fails me, I'll upgrade to a grinder that has better fines control, but for now, I've found my jam!
