If I could only have one pod coffee maker for the rest of time, it would be the Bruvi BV-01 (an 8/10 WIRED Review). It’s the pod coffee maker against which I compare every other pod coffee maker. It’s the yardstick. The best of the best. The one to beat, and no competition has come close to taking the crown. It’s what I use when I’m not testing a new coffee maker for research. Truly and deeply, I love this chic machine with its large touchscreen, upscale-looking accents, and wide variety of biodegradable pods. And now, it can all be yours at a discounted price.
The Bruvi Bundle comes with a brewer and a sampler pack of biodegradable B-Pods. The bundle usually sells for $398, but you can use the exclusive coupon code WIRED to snag it for $198. That price matches the best I’ve ever tracked, including during Prime Day and Black Friday.

The Bruvi BV-01 looks cute on a countertop in both the Black and Cream & Sugar colors. I own the latter, and I like the high-design vibes of its wooden-accented accents, including the latch handle, adjustable drip tray, and lid on the 70-ounce water reservoir. I also appreciate the large, sleek touchscreen, which offers a ton of customization options, including beverage type (brewed coffee, cold brew, matcha, espresso, tea, and more). The Bruvi’s waste bin has a six-pod capacity and conveniently automatically catches spent B-Pods. The machine heats up way faster than what I’ve experienced with other pod coffee makers, like my mom’s Keurig, and I love that there’s no need to wait around for five minutes before I can take my first sip.
