NespressoVertuo Coffee and Espresso Maker by Breville, Matte Black with Aeroccino Milk Frother

One of my favorite types of coffee is a hot latte. I used to be a regular customer at Starbucks. Their latte was very good and reasonably priced. But the quality of their product started going downhill a few years ago as did the quality of their in-store experience. To boot, their prices shot up. So, I began searching for alternatives. A relative we stayed with had this Breville Nespresso Expresso machine in their house that my wife and I liked a lot. The one I ordered included a milk frother. My very first latte was as good or better that the best latte I ever had at Starbucks. And every single latte I have made has been nearly perfect. I'm guessing that the cost per cup at home is about 1/3 the price out. This product is simple to operate and produces a wide variety of excellent cups of coffee. Very happy with it.

This item was delivered today in great shape as promised! However I thought it was supposed to have a small box of 12 pods with it which didn't come? Maybe the driver missed a box?

When I started building my dream coffee bar, the Nespresso Vertuo Coffee and Espresso Maker by Breville was an absolute no-brainer. And let me tell you, it has exceeded every expectation. This machine isn’t just a coffee maker; it’s a gateway to café-quality drinks at home, without the snooty barista judging your order.Sleek Design Meets Easy FunctionalityFirst off, let’s talk looks—this thing is stunning. Its sleek, modern design blends seamlessly into my coffee bar aesthetic, giving off major “professional café” vibes. But it’s not all about appearances. The Vertuo is a genius of simplicity. One button, one touch, and it knows exactly what you need. The barcodes on the capsules ensure perfect brewing every time, so I can go from bleary-eyed to blissfully caffeinated in less than a minute.Coffee That Feels Like a HugThe Vertuo doesn’t just make coffee; it crafts an experience. Whether I’m in the mood for a silky espresso shot or a full-bodied 14-ounce coffee, this machine delivers perfection with a thick, luxurious crema on top. It’s like a warm hug in a cup. And let’s not forget the variety! The range of capsules means I can go from a bold, intense roast in the morning to a smooth decaf in the evening—all without leaving my kitchen.Game-Changing FeaturesThe centrifugal brewing technology feels like something out of a sci-fi movie. It spins the capsules at lightning speed, extracting every bit of flavor. Cleaning? Practically non-existent. Used capsules eject automatically, and a quick rinse is all it takes to keep things pristine.What I Love MostVersatility: Coffee, espresso, and everything in between. No more limiting myself to one drink type.Speed: It’s fast. Like “hit the button and blink” fast. Perfect for chaotic mornings.Consistency: Every single cup tastes like it was made by someone who actually knows what they’re doing.Room for Improvement?If I’m being picky, the capsules aren’t the cheapest, but honestly, the quality justifies the price.

Just pure coffee bliss.Final ThoughtsThe Nespresso Vertuo Coffee and Espresso Maker by Breville is the star of my coffee bar lineup.

My Nespresso machine arrived today, just in time for my birthday on March 5th! What a fantastic gift for myself!I had to cut my coffee intake by half recently, so I resorted to instant decaf coffee, which was a real disappointment.I thought that if I got another coffee maker, it should be an espresso machine, primarily for the delicious crema it produces. Plus, I wanted to enjoy high-quality coffee instead of the awful instant stuff.So, I started browsing Amazon for an espresso machine.I eventually settled on a Nespresso machine. It's not only a stunning piece of equipment, but it also comes with a fantastic coffee frother and a complimentary selection of caffeine coffee samples. Honestly, how could I go wrong with a Nestlé product?I just unpacked it and set it up on my kitchen counter, and it looks absolutely fabulous!I’ve attached two pictures for you to see.I also ordered some decaffeinated coffee pods from Nespresso, which arrived last week, so I'm all set for a delicious cup of decaf with a frothy liquid crema after I read through the instructions that came with both the machines.I'll keep you posted on how the coffee tastes, but I’m pretty confident it’ll be a significant upgrade from that instant stuff! LOL. 😁Thanks, Amazon! ♥️💯

Heavyweight like commercial. Very little assembly needed. Matte finish blended well with cylinders on each side. 1 side holds water other holds used coffee caps. Makes 7.7 oz plus frothing so Id say need a 9oz or larger cup. Very hot coffee too.I had a couple different Kureg in past & went back to normal coffee pot.I feel in love with this at a Resort on Vacation. It fits our 2 family house hold well. Plus I can see the quality will take care of multi family just as well. Zero complaints.

I have enjoyed the Nespresso for a few weeks. For its manufacture quality, the superb coffee drinks it produces and ease in using, it is arguably the “best” I have owned. I also have a Keurig that doesn’t get much use, and a Professional La Pavoni that is performance art while using, but not easy. (Also: The Nespresso milk foamer works amazing! Makes thick, creamy and hot milk for cappuccinos.)Quiet operation! Modern design. Awesome product!
