The big day of sales is finally here, and you can expect to see many huge price drops across various retailers.

If there’s any time to invest in a fancy new coffee machine, this is it.

While the refurbished Sage Coffee machine is advertised at £499.99, you can save even more: an additional 10% is taken off at the checkout, bringing the final cost down to £449.99.

It’s worth noting that this product is a refurb, so it’s not brand-new – but don’t let this put you off of your purchase.

We spoke to Mark Monte-Columbo, the head of eBay’s refurb team, and he answered a number of key questions in our refurbished tech guide.

The most important thing to take away is that ‘these products have rarely undergone any extensive use, or any at all, since they’ve been returned by shoppers within a returns period’.

Also, ‘you’ll sometimes encounter some cosmetic damage to refurbished goods’ – but this won’t affect the functions of the device.

The Black Friday sale has made this Safe deal a massive hit with shoppers on eBay, as 558 have been sold, and since there is a limited number left, you may want to move quickly to ensure you get one.

You won’t have to be a top barista to get that coffee shop quality morning pick-me-up as the Intuitive touch screen display simplifies how to make your favourite café coffee in 3 easy steps.

It has an integrated coffee grinder for freshly ground cups of coffee in the morning. Yes, please!

The auto steam wand allows you to adjust the milk temperature and texture to suit your taste, and while it may always be nice to go grab a coffee with a friend, nobody knows your taste as well as yourself.

It’s capable of making espressos, long blacks, lattes and cappuccinos, so you’ll never have to get tired of having the same type each morning. You can always mix it up.

Looking for more household items? We spotted a Ninja air fryer for just £97 and a Dyson air wrap reduced to £240, perfect options for upping your hair or cooking game.
