Bialetti

Founded in Italy over a century ago, Bialetti has been carefully crafting functional homeware ever since. The firm's big breakthrough came in 1933 when Alfonso Bialetti created an Art Deco Moka pot which revolutionised the way coffee could be made at home. With support from his son Renato, the duo quickly established the company as one of the leading coffee-maker manufacturers. What's more, that same gadget is still in our collection today.

Choosing a Bialetti coffee maker means you can rely on a smooth taste and full aroma in every cup. You'll see shining stainless steel across the range, renowned for its quick-heating qualities and durability. Look out for the easy-to-hold handles, too, which feature a non-slip and anti-scald coating for your comfort and safety.

Use freshly ground coffee beans with your Bialetti espresso maker for a rich flavour. With designs suitable for use on gas, electric hotplates, ceramic and induction hobs, there's a model suitable for every kitchen. Plus, as they're made to supply multiple cups before needing a refill, you can share a pot with others to start the day right. Or, fill it up and warm it gently every so often to keep yourself topped up all day.
