Mommy Percolate –
I bought this to replace a Breville Nespresso Machine which took up more counter space, so I had the opportunity to compare them directly. The Breville Nespresso machine produced a much thicker crema and a better tasting coffee than this DeLonghi machine did. With the green-colored coffee pods the crema on the Breville was nearly two inches thick, while the DeLonghi produced barely half that. I suspect that the Breville spins the pods faster and with more force, or at least it sounds that way. The Breville coffee had more body while the DeLonghi coffee was noticeably flatter.

This is my first Nespresso Vertuoline machine and I love it. I got it on sale for $113 on Black Friday with the milk frother.
Let’s start with the ease of use of this espresso machine. You press the top coffee button and the machine warms up, the green light becomes steady and it’s ready to brew. Put in your favorite capsule and close the top lid and press the coffee button. Did I mention the motorized capsule lid? The lid opens and closes itself with a touch of the lever and disposes the capsules into its bin on the back of the machine.
Milk frother is even easier to use. Just pour the milk in and press the button. Adding the froth of milk makes you feel like a real barista! You can totally make the same exact drinks as they make at Starbucks for the fraction of the cost. And the drinks are super strong depending on which intensities you choose.
I paired this machine with double-walled coffee/espresso cups also purchased on Amazon. Much better than your everyday ceramic cups so you can see what you’re drinking and the art you just created in the cups. I also purchased the storage drawer holder for capsules that stores the capsules and machine on top (see pics)!
This is like any other home appliance. You have to upkeep things like this. Clean it. Maintain it. If you don’t do any of these things, things will eventually break. And for the people that gave this product 1 star, return it if it’s broken?

Cannot believe that I just discovered the real taste of coffee. Great machine. Got for Christmas, cannot stop treating myself to another coffee.

This is our first Nespresso machine, but not our first coffee pod system. These coffees are far superior to other pod coffees and comparable to cafés. Easy to use, and the technology is very cool.

It is a really great unit. Makes great Nespresso coffees and is very easy to use and very quiet. The only negative is the colour. It’s a plastic gray and doesn’t look anything like stainless which I was disappointed with. But the most important feature is the coffee and that’s 5 stars!!

Very happy with this purchase. Makes good coffee, heats fast and the machine is very quiet comparing to others I had before. Would certainly recommend.

I received this from Amazon warehouse deals so I bought it at a discounted price for open box and it is amazing. The coffee is definitely delicious and coffee house quality. The only downside is the cost of the pods. However it beats $4 a cup at the local coffee shop. Some of the flavors are just too strong for me. Those two reasons are why I gave it 4 stars. My husband loves the espressos. He thinks this is the best machine ever!

I had a Nespresso machine for 18 years. It finally guit. We didn’t need a fancy one so we chose this one. It is so cheaply made! I can see why my original one lasted so long. The water container is really cheap plastic bi don’t expect this machine to last 3 years let alone 18 years. It’s easy to use I like the new way of expelling the capsules. I am afraid that if I dropped any part it would break. I don’t care if I can get replacements. I saw this model when I was in Germany. It was not so cheaply made. Not satisfied

This was an amazing anniversary gift until it broke months later!!! The machine entered into some sort of descaling mode! I have gone through the manual and descaled the machine, I have spent the money on the descaling chemical and still the machine won’t work! The Nespresso website is no help and now I no longer have my favorite thing about the morning!! I have spent hundreds of dollars on capsules so for this to happen after 10 months of use I am furious! Terrible issue to have especially since it was working fine! But some sensor shuts it down!!

While other brands of single serve coffee maker have none little to improve their technology Nespresso has taken a quantum leap forward..
-The machine is much quieter
-One touch to warm up (fast) and brew
-Completely customizable cup volume from 2 through 14 oz (a basic idea lost on Caffitaly or Starbucks)
(btw I would not pay more for the ALTO 14 oz pods – the more intense regular sizes seem to stretch to 12 oz + and still give you a great cup.)
-Water tank you can grip in one hand, lift off, and refill easily
-One touch powered mechanism to drop a pod in
-Used pod box you can lift out with one finger and empty
– ALL THE WATER ENDS UP IN YOUR CUP – none in the pod box, or anywhere else.
– The coffee is pretty good too – $1.1 per cup – worth it for the convenience imho
No TEA capsules yet – hopefully soon

Nespresso machine makes great coffee. Worked great for a couple of months and the day after I was able to return due to coffee leaking at back of unit when brewing coffee. Amazon amazing customer service accepted my request for a return. So impressed with Amazon. I do however really like the Nespresso VerteoPlus machine. I ordered another however I added the 4 year warranty. Hopefully I don’t have to use the warranty.
UPDATE: After using the new VetroPlus for 10 months now… no issues at all.

If you’ve never had coffee from a Nespresso Vertuo machine, you owe it to yourself to try it out. It is a whole level beyond Keurig-type brewing.
Most coffee makers use some variation of pouring hot water over coffee grounds, from standard drip machines to the convenience of Keurig machines. The first generation Nespresso machine used the traditional Espresso technique of pressurized water forced through the coffee grounds. While this produces superior coffee, it also is loud because of the pressurized pump required, and is also prone to mechanical failure. The new generation Vertuo machines use a entirely new way of making coffee by putting the coffee pod in a miniature centrifuge and using that pressure to drive the hot water through the coffee instead of using hydraulic pressure. The result is fantastic– a rich coffee with an amazing crema that is the equal or better to any you’ve ever tasted.
The pros: it gives a rich brewed crema to both espresso and regular coffee blends. It is super easy to use and quiet and actually is smaller than my Keurig. It gives coffee that is the equal or better to Starbucks, especially if you use a separate frother when you blend in milk or cream.
The cons: EXPENSE. The pods are only sold by Nespresso, are limited in availability, and cost over a buck a piece. That’s why I would really recommend to try before you buy if you can— if you truly love great coffee or if you want to cut back on your Starbucks habit but can’t face just ordinary drip coffee, this Nespresso could be your new best friend.
