Running low on coffee? Now you can order more Folgers with the press of a button, thanks to Amazon.

The online retail giant on Monday added the coffee seller to its lineup of Dash Buttons, along with a slew of other brands, including Bai, Cheez-It, Fresh Kitty, Meow Mix, Milk Bone, PoopBags, Pop-Tarts, Powerade, Purell Hand Sanitizing Wipes, ZonePerfect, and many others.

With the more than 60 new additions added this week, there are now more than 200 Dash Buttons available.

For the uninitiated, Dash Buttons let you re-order things you always use—like paper towels, laundry detergent, coffee, and water—with a simple press. Amazon first introduced this concept in March 2015, and while some initially thought it was an April Fools' Joke, the Web giant is serious about its Dash Buttons and said customers are on board.

"We're thrilled to see more and more Prime members experiencing the convenience of Dash Button and restocking their everyday essentials with a simple press of a button," Amazon Dash Director Daniel Rausch said in a statement. "As a result, we're seeing exponential growth for the program and orders increased over 5x in the last year."

Amazon in August expanded the Dash Button program internationally. Those in Austria, Germany, and the UK can now get in on the easy-ordering fun.

Prime members can get their own Dash Buttons for $4.99 each, but they're essentially free because Amazon will give you a $4.99 credit once you place your first order. You'll get a notification with every order, and can change the product associated with your Dash Button at any time.

My Experience

I'm PCMag's managing editor for consumer electronics, overseeing an experienced team of analysts covering smart home, home entertainment, wearables, fitness and health tech, and various other product categories. I have been with PCMag for more than 10 years, and in that time have written more than 6,000 articles and reviews for the site. I previously served as an analyst focused on smart home and wearable devices, and before that I was a reporter covering consumer tech news. I'm also a yoga instructor, and have been actively teaching group and private classes for nearly a decade. 

Prior to joining PCMag, I was a reporter for SC Magazine, focusing on hackers and computer security. I earned a BS in journalism from West Virginia University, and started my career writing for newspapers in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

The Technology I Use

My little Florida beach bungalow is brimming with smart home tech. I have a smart speaker or display in every room, allowing me to control other connected devices by voice. The Nest Hub on my bedside table lets me set wake-up alarms, control my smart light bulbs, and set the temperature on my smart thermostat. I use the Amazon Echo Show 8 on my kitchen counter to browse recipes, reorder protein powder, check the weather, and watch the news while I do dishes. 

Because I suffer from allergies, air purifiers are essential. My favorite model is the Dyson Purifier Cool TP07, which doubles as a fan and continuously sends indoor pollution data to its companion mobile app. 

My pitbull Bradley sheds, so a good robot vacuum is a must. I currently use a premium Ecovacs Deebot that can both vacuum and mop, empty its own dustbin, and wash its own mop cloth. 

For fitness, I like to mix up my routine with cycling, indoor rowing, running, and strength training in addition to yoga. I take classes on the Tonal 2 smart strength training machine, I row indoors on an Aviron machine, and track my beach runs with an Apple Watch while listening to music on my Apple AirPods Pro. On the weekends, I love riding e-bikes like the rugged, beach-friendly Aventon Aventure for fun and fitness.

My job involves a lot of virtual meetings, so a quality webcam, microphone, and ring light are important. I use the Jabra PanaCast 20 webcam, the Elgato Wave: 3 microphone, and a Yesker tripod ring light. 

As for my preferred phone platform, I'm an iPhone person, but I've also extensively used Android for product testing.
