The Breville Barista Express BES870XL typically retails around $699.95 on Amazon — a significant investment for a home espresso machine. Discounts are infrequent and almost always tied to major sale events. Waiting for a deal by manually refreshing Amazon is a losing strategy: the Breville Barista Express Black Friday deal is the most reliable annual discount window, but it goes live without warning and sells through quickly. Our free Amazon price drop alert tool monitors the listing 24/7 and emails you the instant it drops to the price you've already decided you're comfortable paying.
Setting up a Breville espresso machine price alert takes under a minute:
Once set, there's nothing else to do. We watch the listing and only contact you when the price hits your number.
The Breville Barista Express is one of the most popular home espresso machines in the world, and the best-selling Breville model on Amazon. Its defining feature is a built-in conical burr grinder that grinds fresh directly into the portafilter — meaning you get a proper espresso workflow in a single machine, without needing a separate grinder. It's widely regarded as the benchmark for entry-level prosumer espresso in the $500–$800 range.
Key features of the Breville Barista Express BES870XL include:
Because Breville periodically refreshes colorways and bundle configurations, prices on specific listings can shift as newer versions are introduced or older stock clears.
The Breville Barista Express espresso machine Black Friday event is the single most predictable discount of the year. In past years, the BES870XL has dropped by $100–$200 during the Black Friday through Cyber Monday window — bringing a ~$699 machine down to the $499–$549 range. Amazon typically matches Breville's own Black Friday pricing, and sometimes goes lower. Beyond Black Friday, Amazon Prime Day in July and Labor Day sales have also produced occasional discounts, though these are less consistent year to year.
The challenge is that even during known sale events, the discounted price can appear and disappear within 24–48 hours. Without a price alert in place, it's easy to miss entirely. Our guide on Black Friday fake discounts is worth reading before the next sale season — it explains how to distinguish a genuine price drop from an inflated "original price" that makes a modest discount look bigger than it actually is.
Setting a realistic target price is the most important step in getting useful, actionable alerts. Set it too low and you may wait indefinitely for a discount that never materializes. Set it too close to the current retail price and the alert will fire for a negligible fluctuation that isn't worth acting on.

The Barista Express sits in the middle of Breville's espresso lineup. Below it is the Bambino Plus (~$499), which is compact and fast-heating but lacks a built-in grinder. Above it is the Barista Pro (~$799), which adds a faster ThermoJet heating system and a more refined interface. At the top end is the Oracle (~$1,799+), which automates tamping and milk texturing entirely. If you're deciding between models, you can set price alerts for multiple listings simultaneously and buy whichever hits your target first.
Simply replace the URL in the form above with the Amazon listing for whichever Breville model you're considering, or run separate alerts for each. Our product-specific alerts hub covers a wide range of premium products across all categories.
Amazon's pricing algorithm adjusts prices constantly — in response to inventory levels, competitor pricing, seasonal demand, and promotional calendars. For a premium appliance like the Breville Barista Express, a $100–$150 discount represents a meaningful saving, and those windows often close within a day or two of opening. Our guide on Amazon pricing algorithms breaks down the mechanics behind these price changes in more detail.
A price alert removes timing from the equation entirely. You decide your price once, and we handle the monitoring. For tracking other premium kitchen and home products, our product-specific alerts hub covers everything from air fryers to OLED TVs.
