There are many threads about the BES870 and it's the most popular coffee machine listing on ozbargain so I'll leave you to do your own research!
Note that if you want a local seller or miss out, you can also get it for $584 from The Good Guys with $50 in store credit so effectively $534
EDIT NOTE: Now showing as Out of Stock (and price now shows as $599 but I'm not sure if anyone got it for $479.20 after discount or they just closed the listing!)
We bought one 6-8 months ago and I was skeptical that they can make a really good coffee. Without even trying it makes better coffee than Macca's, the drive through coffee shop down the road, and as good as (or sometimes better) than most cafes in my suburb. This is using crappy Lavazza beans as well. I'm looking forward to using some decent beans.
It might seem strange to coffee lovers that my standards are Macca's and a drive through coffee shop, but these are the types of places we hit up along with cafes every day when on the road and in a rush. After we worked out we were spending $3000 a year on take away coffees its a no-brainer to buy a couple of KeepCups and one of these machines for $550, then pocket the savings to put towards a week long break in SE-Asia. Works for us.
