Oprah's Favorite Things List Includes a $1,800 Espresso Machine and a Ton of Gifting Ideas
The math might mean it pays for itself within a year.”
Oprah Winfrey just released her Favorite Things List for 2024 and, naturally, it's full of too many great gift ideas to keep track of, but some of the most standout pieces may just get you excited to treat yourself or someone you love his holiday season. While there are plenty of gifts that come under a $50 price point, one of the beloved host's standout picks is a $1,800 coffeemaker, though she does justify it with some math (the regular kind, not just TikTok-famous girl math).
“I know, this one’s a splurge, but it grinds coffee beans and makes lattes, cappuccinos, espressos, cold brews, and more than 50 other recipes. And for certain caffeine-aholics, the math might mean it pays for itself within a year," she said of the De'Longhi Eletta Explore Espresso Machine with Cold Brew. Like all of the picks on her list, it's available at Amazon, though she does also offer the opportunity to buy things directly from their manufacturers.
Winfrey separated her list into sections to help with anyone overwhelmed by her curation: there are stylish, cozy, kid and family, kitchen, tech, beauty, food, and wellness gifts on offer, including her "The Life You Want" Becoming Unstuck Journal at $30.
"This gift is designed for anyone who’s feeling a little—or a lot—stuck," she shared. "I went through every page of this guided journal we created and believe the exercises and prompts will help folks reignite their life."
Other picks include a beautiful musical jewelry box, a custom paint-by-numbers kit, and beauty products from People of Color and Anastasia Beverly Hills.
Oprah’s Favorite Things first appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show in the '90s and it quickly became the most-watched episode every year. In the past, Winfrey aired it around Thanksgiving and eventually, it went on to appear in her magazine
