I have mixed feelings about this machine, some days I love it and others not so much!
It’s a slimline machine but takes up much more counter space than my other coffee machines, not a dealbreaker but nowhere near as compact as marketed.
The instruction manual isn’t that helpful at all and find online videos far more helpful in terms of getting to grips with the machine.
The machine is loud, not sure if this is average for Nespresso but I’m used to quieter machines. It does make the coffee relatively quickly and stores used pods neatly within the machine which is a feature I absolutely love. You can play around with the settings to add more water to the pods which is really helpful and means I always get coffee just the way I like it. I really do love being able to just add more water to an espresso so this is a great feature for me and one that I don’t have with my previous pod machine. I love the crema you get with the drinks as I don’t drink dairy so miss the froth you get with a cappuccino or latte.
The machine came with some sample pods and was a great way to try a variety before making a purchase. I wasn’t aware at the time of purchasing this machine that it could only use the vertuo pods and not the original nespresso pods. You can only purchase the vertuo pods from nespresso, I don’t have a boutique locally so ended having to order online and had to order a minimum of 50 which wasn’t ideal. If the pods were more accessible I definitely would rate this soooo much higher.
