NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude the prices of stores whose the VAT policy is not clear (so-called “gray” stores, typically in the case of imports from China).

Alternatively

The Jura Ono is a coffee maker that allows you to enter the world of the Swiss giant without breaking the bank too much. Pretty, fast and silent, it is no less fun by inviting its user to turn the crank and settle the grind. Intended for lovers of black coffee, the Jura Ono nevertheless lacks recipe customization options and a steam nozzle. Combined with the Jura electric grinder, it forms a perfect combo, but the price of these two pieces of equipment could convince some to upgrade to a full-automatic coffee maker.
