I'm guessing you're in the states? If you're scouting for these types of clearance deals, I'd check around TjMaxx, Marshalls, and Home goods. You might be able to score a Breville bambino, bambino plus, barista express, barista pro, or even one of the touch/oracles but those are significantly more.

I have no idea about wattage converting or warranty claims in south east Asia but out of these two machines the Breville is higher quality and will make better coffee.

Another option is indeed the Barista Express. I didn’t go with this one because I wanted a better grinde

It has high retention and also doesn’t grind as uniformly as other standalone. When I had the breville barista express I purchased a niche grinder and it made the coffee much better.

Do you already have an espresso capable grinder? If so, look at the Breville Bambino. If not, look for a Breville Barista Express on sale or used - it won't be $400 CAD on sale, but you're not getting a new grinder and espresso machine for $400 CAD, unless you find a great used deal.

The pressure gauge and the instructions Breville gives on how to use it have sent many beginners down the wrong path. If you grind fine enough to get a good extraction, the pressure gauge will be way to the ri

Breville Barista is not very automated. You will still be learning to dial in. The core of it is pretty much a Bambino with an okay grinder attached. The fact that they are a single machine only has the benefit of freeing up an outlet and maybe looking a bit more stream lined. If you want automated
