This week only: Save $50 on a new De’Longhi espresso machine

The De'Longhi Magnifico Espresso Maker.
Best Buy

We’re always on the lookout for coffee maker deals, but what we really want for Christmas is a brand-new espresso machine. Unfortunately, these savant devices are often thousands of dollars and are overly complicated to use. But what if there was a happy middle-ground between an entry-level espresso maker and a top-shelf barista model? Enter the De’Longhi Magnifica Start Espresso Machine.

For a limited time, Best Buy is selling this espresso machine for $450, which is $50 off its regular price. A Goldilocks device for your steaming-hot morning beverage, the Magnifica has got what it takes to keep your energy up and your taste buds happy, and it’s a part of Best Buy’s Prep for the Holidays sale!

Why you should buy the De’Longhi Magnifica

Espresso machines can look pretty intimidating on the surface, which is why De’Longhi went out of its way to design an espresso machine that just about anyone can use. With its set-it-and-forget-it design, all you have to do is place your mug on the drip tray, select the type of beverage you’d like to brew, and watch as the Magnifica gets to work on the perfect pour.

Not only will you have the ability to brew multiple hot and cold beverages, but the Magnifica also comes with a manual milk frother for adding that special final layer to your artisan drink. The built-in grinder has 13 different settings to choose from and even includes a grounds bypass if you already had your beans ground up at the store. We were also glad to learn that most of the Magnifica’s parts are both removable and dishwasher-safe, making cleanup a total breeze.

We don’t know when the De’Longhi Magnifica is ever going to be this price again, so now might be the best time to save. Take $50 off this espresso maker when you purchase at Best Buy, and be sure to check out some of the other espresso machine deals and Best Buy deals we’ve been rounding up!

Ultraloq showcases the first-ever ultra-wideband smart lock at CES 2025
Bolt Mission UWB + NFC installed on a white door.

Ultraloq showed off two smart locks at CES 2025 -- one of which is the first smart lock to ever offer ultra-wideband (UWB) support. The Ultraloq Bolt Mission UWB + NFC uses UWB technology to unlock automatically as you approach your front door. Similar functionality already exists on other smart locks, but UWB should allow the Ultraloq Bolt Mission to be more accurate than the competition.

The Bolt Mission uses technology similar to digital car keys, and Ultraloq says it can track the keyholder’s phone location with “centimeter-level” accuracy. As your phone gets closer to the front door, the Bolt Mission can be programmed to automatically unlock, giving you a hands-free way to get inside. Better yet, because the smart lock can detect both your distance and direction from the front door, it should prevent you from accidentally unlocking the smart lock while inside your home.

Ulticam shows off three AI-powered security cameras at CES 2025
The Ulticam IQ installed outside a home.

Ulticam, the new security camera brand of Xthings, revealed a lineup of three AI-powered cameras at CES 2025. The Ulticam IQ, Ulticam IQ Floodlight, and Ulticam Dot offer not just cool AI capabilities, but also free seven-day cloud storage -- which could make them a solid choice for value-minded shoppers leery about signing up for monthly storage plans.

The Ulticam IQ and IQ Floodlight are the main attractions, as they're packed with features that should pose solid competition for the best smart security cameras from Arlo, Nest, and Ring. The duo uses edge AI to quickly identify people, vehicles, and packages without needing to upload the video for server-side processing. This onboard processing should result in faster performance -- it’s also great for privacy and security, as your footage doesn’t have to leave your device.

Home Depot expands Hubspace smart home lineup at CES 2025

Hubspace, Home Depot’s smart home platform, has seen impressive growth over the past few years, and that growth continued at CES 2025. Three new gadgets were revealed at the event, including a wireless power switch to control Hubspace products, a portable air conditioner, and a window-mounted air conditioner. All three are unique additions to the catalog -- and since there’s not much like them on the market, they should quickly become popular options in their respective niches.

The Hubspace Remote Switch is arguably the most useful of the three gadgets. Designed to look like a light switch, but with a removable remote controller, it works with select Hubspace light bulbs, fixtures, plugs, power sockets, surge protectors, and more. You’ll get standard on and off functions, plus access to brightness controls. Its sleek looks and versatility should make it a great choice for shoppers seeking an entry-level smart switch.
