This Buy-It-For-Life Coffee Maker Just Won Prime Day

Go to any home in Scandinavia. Look on the counter. There, you will find a majestic coffee maker that has probably lived on that home's counter for as long as your host has been an adult. That magical device is called a Moccamaster. It will make you some of the best coffee of your life. In one of the best Amazon Prime Day Deals of 2026, you too can own a Moccamaster—for about $120 off regular price, depending on the model. This is the best Moccamaster deal I've seen this year. It's the best deal you're likely to see till autumn. If you have already lusted after a Moccamaster in your heart, Prime Day is your time. A Technivorm Moccamaster, if you don't know, is a finely engineered and wholly analog coffee maker—no AI here, and no one selling your data.
It makes lovely drip coffee, courtesy of a brewing process tightly regulated and certified according to parameters set by of the international Specialty Coffee Association. Coffee from a Moccamaster tastes like berries and chocolate and caramel, nothing like the sad diner coffee you may have grown up with. Moccamasters also quite famously last forever—they are hand-built, and every part is replaceable. A Moccamaster has adorned WIRED's buy-it-for-life guide for as long as we've had a buy-it-for-life guide. The warranty is 5 years, but after this the North American workshop will famously fix your Moccamaster till you die, for a flat rate of $99. So really the question is: Which Moccamaster will serve you best? For Small Batch Lovers: Moccamaster KBGV Photograph: Matthew Korfhage Courtesy of Moccamaster Chevron Chevron Save to wishlist Save to wishlist Moccamaster KBGV Select Coffee Maker $369 $240 (35% off) Amazon The KBGV is, to me, the iconic Moccamaster—the model with the most balanced design, and the most balanced coffee.
It's a 10-cup machine (for Moccamaster, cups are about 4 ounces), but the real beauty with this one is that you can also brew a smaller 5-cup batch. Just toggle a switch to slow the flow rate of the water and make sure you still get full extraction. This KBGV is the one that suits me best. And this is one of two times a year you can get a terrific deal on it. Act fast, before your favorite color runs out. And trust me: This will almost certainly happen before the end of Prime Day. For Slow Sippers: Moccamaster KBGT My colleague, WIRED reviewer Simon Hill, starts every day instead with the Moccamaster KBGT. “It’s stylish and reliable,” he writes.
“And you can pry my Moccamaster from my cold, dead hands.” Rather than brew multiple batches and drink each cup as close to possible to when it's been brewed (that's me), Simon brews one full batch, and trusts in the thermal carafe to keep it warm. If this is you, you want this thermal model instead.
