Pros:- didn’t leak- brews, cleans, and descales (descaling powder sold separately)- crema is amazing every time- brews really fast- very compactCons:- no hot water option- the tray is plastic (in the De Longhi model I believe it’s metal)

Best coffee machine I have ever owned hands down. No mess, quiet and efficient, makes amazing Crema so much so that the aeroccino doubles the froth. Happy to be a part of the Nespresso club

Good, but you’re stuck with Nespresso pods
Pros:-The machine is well-built, attractive, fairly quiet, and very simple to use.-The espresso is consistently great.Neutrals:-The espresso is barely the right temperature out of the machine. You’ll have to drink it fast. If you enjoy sipping your espresso, it will be too cold to drink in 5 minutes.-There’s too much foam. (Yes, “foam.” That isn’t truly crema.) It’s not a deal-breaker, but having 50% less foam would be ideal.Cons: (These are not really criticisms of the machine but of Nespresso.)-Keurig has wisely allowed third-party companies to make pods. Nespresso has jealously guarded their patent, so you get only what Nespresso wants you to get. (The Starbucks pods are actually produced by Nespresso, who just slap a Starbucks label on them.)-My biggest frustration is the lack of choice of pods for my drink of choice: double espresso. They have dozens and dozens of choices for large-size coffees (too much) and for single espressos (way too little!), but only 4 double espresso choices, and 2 of those are too light (“espresso for those who don’t like the taste of espresso”).Overall, I regret buying it. But if iced coffee is what you like, I think you’ll really like it.

Nespresso coffee pods are more expensive than other name brands but the coffee is so delicious and smooth! The machine is compact, simple to use and looks great and I love that is has a used pod holder and movable water tank and that Nespresso offers recycling bags (free of charge). My only regret is that I didn’t purchase the Aeroccino!

Nespresso coffee is so much better and this is a great machine!
This Nespresso machine is an upgrade from the first model I bought which did not have the push-button capsule loading design. This is a great machine and Nespresso coffee if the best… so much better then K-pods!

Amazing Purchase.
I was on the fence whether I wanted to purchase a Breville Espresso Machine or a Nespresso Machine. I have always spent way too much money on coffee shop coffees in the past. I wasn’t sure I wanted to buy the Nespresso machine because I bought a Keurig and an Instant Pot Pod coffee/espresso machine and both of those were subpar. They did the job but didn’t excel at anything in particular. I ended up giving BOTH of them away to a Christian thrift store because neither machine ended up being the whole package. I was also not crazy that all the Keurig coffee pods were plastic. My life is hectic and after a lot of research, I learned that ANY espresso machine has a MAJOR learning curve that can take up to 6 months on average to learn to make the perfect espresso shot/puck/pull/frothing milk. It’s not a task for the faint of heart or those who don’t have the time to learn how to pull that perfect espresso shot.So I took a leap of faith and got this Nespresso machine and boy was it worth it. Just like everyone’s preferences and tastes are different there are certain pods that aren’t my cup of tea, however, there are PLENTY that I absolutely LOVE. This Nespresso machine makes espresso shots that rival Starbucks watered-down drinks. It came with a frothing machine and I had very little research into making the perfect drink to appease my coffee addiction. I would purchase this machine 5x over! Because Nespresso has been around for a little bit there are PLENTY of social media pages and information that can easily be watched to know what the correct portion of syrup you need to make the perfect macchiato, latte, shaken espresso, and cold coffee.I have absolutely no regrets. There are options to make the pods refillable that you can purchase on Amazon however I do not think 1.10 (now if it gets higher than that I may choose the other option) is too pricey for the pod itself. I know that everyone’s price range is different that is perfectly fine because there are options for refills if you want that Starbucks experience without having to pay the price.This machine is for those busy people that wake up too late in the morning or only have 5 minutes to get their coffee and go or moms on the go!Do yourself a favor and buy the machine! Watch Tiktok or Youtube if you want to know what pod would best suit your taste. But fear not if you’re not into social media like that because this machine not only comes with a frother but also comes with I believe a 20-pack of pods for you to taste them all!A double shot of espresso is my personal favorite and (hot) coffee is my least if I am being 100% transparent but I was never really much a fan of regular hot coffee anyways. Now, the cold coffee with a chiller is a completely different story. Anyways, I hope this helps solve your 5-day dilemma of constantly researching if you are anything like me.

Fantastic coffee machine
Great, frothy rich coffee. Pods are convenient and there are hacks on YouTube on how to save pods and reuse with the coffee of your choice. Pods have a barcode telling the machine on how much water and steam to add. Coffee has adequate foam even without using frother. Beware of the metal reusable pods. Iâve read where they can harm your machine from too much built up pressure. The separate frother is fabulous. Itâs quiet, fast and HEATED. Nothing more annoying than cooling coffee with cool froth. Machine is streamlined and attractive and not too big for counter. Beats the ninja brand coffee machine which makes weak coffee.
