With so many coffee machine brands on the market, it can be hard to distinguish which are the cream of the crop when it comes to the needs of consumers in 2021. If you’re on the lookout for a new machine for your home or office, the first port of call is to do research about the brands, models and prices in order to see which one will best match your needs. It helps to know which brands stand out head and shoulders above the rest in terms of popularity and the way they are going about creating new models that cater to a fast changing world. 

Nespresso

Nespresso is one of the best premium coffee machine brands on the market, catering to households and offices around the country in part thanks to the ongoing promotional campaigns featuring the ever suave George Clooney. A division of the Nestlé Group and based in Switzerland, the company continues to produce high quality machines with a delicious range of coffee pods that offer an experience to consumers, rather than just making a cup of coffee part of an ongoing morning routine. The pre-packaged pods are simple and convenient to use, and more affordable these days than you might think.

Bravilor

Bravilor is another reputable coffee machine brand in 2021, known for its filter, automatic and espresso machines that have been making waves around the world for over seven decades. A family business turned global corporation, the brand has nearly 500 people working for their team who are geared towards providing consumers with exactly what they’re looking for in terms of a coffee solution. From a price standpoint, some of their lower-end models are very affordable, offering only the basics, but adding a certain element of professionalism and style to homes and offices of all types. 

Jura

Proudly stocked by the Aquaspresso team (in the form of for-purchase or for-hire options), Jura coffee machines are widely popular in South Africa, and come in a variety of different types. The company recently celebrated their 90th birthday, and in spite of being around so long they’ve kept their pulse on what the market is looking for across various phases of their operations. The Jura team is committed to sustainability and longevity, two things that are essential in the modern workplace or for families living in the 2020’s. Innovative and passionate, you can’t go wrong with one of their machines.

De’Longhi

Last but not least, De’Longhi is one of the coffee brands that will likely always make any “best of” lists, mostly because of its credibility with aficionados and hobbyists all over the world. Although formally considered a small appliance manufacturer from Italy, the company has found a specific calling within the coffee space, carving out a niche market of high-end customers with a taste for style and sophistication. The oldest brand on the list (with a staggering 110 years in the market already), these guys know what they are doing and continue to be a dominant force in the industry in 2021.
