eXDee on Breville The Infuser Espresso Coffee Machine BES840BSS $499.99 + Delivery / $0 CC @ Briscoes

Yep it's the same machine as the Barista Express. The Bambino is a much better machine than the Infuser and the Barista Express, it's also…

Haydz117 on [XB1, XSX] Xbox Series S $386.10, Halo Infinite & MS Flight Sim $15 + More @ The Market (Requires MC+), EB Games, JB Hi-Fi

Yeah MS hasn't really given any first party games that need the Series X specs at this point... 1440p gaming on the Series S is great.

justaddwater on [XB1, XSX] Xbox Series S $386.10, Halo Infinite & MS Flight Sim $15 + More @ The Market (Requires MC+), EB Games, JB Hi-Fi

I have both, the Series S is a wicked deal especially when you add in GamePass (look up how to get 3 years of GamePass for cheap with a…

I'd recommend the Bambino over this - heats up faster and is currently cheaper. The Bambino is set to 9 bars out of the box (ideal espresso…

steakandcheese on Pour Over Coffee Maker with Permanent Filter (1.0L) $33.25 + $10 Shipping (Free over $70) @ Bodum

Paper filter pour overs (Chemex or a V60) would get you a cleaner cup, the metal pour over will leave you with lots of fines/sludge in the…

If you wanna dip your toes, see if you can get a second hand Breville Machine (Bambino, Barista Express or Infuser) and a good quality hand…

How much are you wanting to spend?

If you're seriously keen to get a barebones home espresso setup, buying new the best bang for buck would be the Breville Bambino with a…

NzShane on Breville Barista Express Coffee Machine (BES870) $749 + Post / Pickup @ Harvey Norman ($674.10 at Briscoes via Pricebeat)

Grind consistency is a problem with this machine, it has high retention and bad grind uniformity. This machine has often been described as…

mars92 on Nintendo Switch Console OLED Model (White Version) AU$521.69 Delivered (~NZ$557 approx.) @ Amazon AU

The dock has a LAN port on the OLED model so there is some benefit in buying OLED even if you only play docked.

HaydnE commented on Xbox Series X $795 Delivered @ Noel Leeming
While there's no discounts, if anyone is seriously keen on a PS5 or Series X I'd recommend following this Twitter and set it to send you a…

The temp gauge isn't as useful (or accurate) as you might think. I only use mine to tell if my Weber is hot enough or not, although putting…

I have the XM3's and agree that the active noise cancelling is rarely helpful. I don't use it at all, only the noise cancelling.

I ordered my iPad at 11 today and it came at 9pm tonight!
