When to buy coffee & espresso machines

On this one a price changed about 20 times per 90 days, the average distance between a product’s own high and low was 24%, and the widest we recorded on any single product was 46%. All three are our own readings of prices for coffee & espresso machines, not a retailer’s claim about its own discounts.
Why there is no “cheapest month” here yet
A cheapest month needs 12 months of our own observations to compare, so that the figure is about the month rather than about the weeks we happened to be watching. Our first recorded price is from , which puts the earliest honest answer at . This page fills itself on that day, with no article rewritten. Until then, treating a listicle’s “buy in November” as fact is a guess with a confident voice, and the panel that will replace this paragraph is arithmetic you can check.
What the calendar holds next
Black Friday falls on . We keep reading these prices through it and publish what they actually did the day after it ends — the sale price against what the same products cost in the weeks before, which is the only way to tell a cut from a sticker.
What to do today
- Check the one product you want rather than the shelf: every price we track on the coffee & espresso machines shelf carries its own record and its own verdict.
- This week’s record lows lists what has gone below everything we had recorded for it in the last seven days.
- Set an alert on the product page instead of watching it. It needs no account and no address, and it fires when the price does what you are waiting for.
