Nespresso A+C60-US-SS-NE Pixie Espresso Maker with Aeroccino Plus Milk Frother, Chrome

I've been on the market for a reasonably priced espresso machine for some time. After many days reading reviews of different machines, I settled for the Nespresso Pixie. Received the machine yesterday and after only one day of use I can share that I'm extremely pleased with it.The main selling point for me is CONVENIENCE - Compact, fast, exceptional coffee for the price and most of all easy to clean and operate. Everything wrapped in a stylish package that sits proudly on my kitchen countertop.If you are a coffee connoisseur and you are looking for coffee Nirvana, this machine is not for you. Do us a favor and put your money where your mouth is and buy a $2K+ machine.If you are trying to save $0.05 by refilling your own capsules. This machine is not for you. I value more the convenience of not having to clean up a mess of coffee grounds, than the $0.05Coffee quality is great with 16+ varieties to choose from. Temperature is also good if you follow recommendations to heat up your cup first by running an empty cycle.Since some other reviewers have gone to great level of detail about their experience, I honestly don't have anything else to add other than suggests to do your own research and know in advance what you are getting into. I knew what I was getting into and I am very happy with the results. Cheers!

Worst coffee ever, at best its weak, but then I'm a Bialetti girl who likes her espresso STRONG. This did not even come close.

Love it! And the frother is fantastic. Attached a photo of my first attempt at a Latte Macchiato.

the machine is very stylish but the coffee tastes quite watery. The milk frother unfortunately does not fullfill my expectations as the foam is not as i would expect it for a cappuccino. The real aerocino makes a much better milk foam, so i should have invested 20 dollars more, and unfortunately i am stuck with this one now...

I had bought and returned two different espresso makers (Delonghi & Mr Coffee) and returned them both within a week of using each of them. I was hesitant in buying the Nespresso machine because I didn't want an espresso maker with 'pods' and wasn't sure it would taste like real espress. I am glad I did buy one, this is one awesome little machine. Has true espresso crema, taste is smooth.This is definitely a time saving espresso maker if you are in a hurry. It is a bit loud when in use, but it brews so fast the sound is short, does not last long. Milk frother also works fast too. I wish somehow the frother was built onto the machine so I didn't have to have a separate machine to store and container to clean, but I can get over that since they work so fast and efficient. Clean up is a breeze with this machine compared to the tamping mess of others.My worry with small appliances is long term use and longevity. I will update my review if anything starts to haywire. I have had it for a few months now, no problem yet, considering the $300 Delonghi I purchased stopped filling full espresso shots after 7 days of use. I'm hoping this will last some years to come. The $150 Mr Coffee espresso maker I returned didn't break or stop filling cups, but the results never did taste like espresso, no matter what type of beans or how I made it, it was just a glorified coffee pot, tasted nothing like 'espresso'.I am sure this gets pricey buying pods, but I did find disposable fill your own nespresso pods which work great.So now I can use my own choice of coffee beans also! I am very happy with the purchase thus far!

I discovered Nespresso at my work and I've been hooked ever since. So I got this bundle for my home. Extremely happy with the design, with the quality and with the function. The pods are a little pricey but a heck of a lot cheaper and better quality than Starbucks. And it's definitely worth the extra $.20 compared to K-cups. This bundle is a great size and looks nice on the counter. One of my best small appliance purchases. 2nd only to my Anova sous vide. Is Nespresso as good as a top quality barista with a $5,000 espresso machine? No, but it will give you a better espresso than you'll get in 90% of the coffee shops and it's a lot cheaper and a lot more convenient. The Aeroccino frother produces a great foam for Cappuccinos in a very short time frame and the clean-up is a breeze.

Awesome for low volume and portable brewing. We take it on vacation with us in our checked on luggage because I cannot really function in the morning without an espresso to get things going. Not for high volume because the little pods are an unnecessary waste of resources and $$$. For high volume we have a Saeco that has pumped out nearly 15,000 cups of espresso, coffee, etc. over the ten years we have owned it. Anyway back to Nespresso...very nice little machine. Also like the many flavors. Agree with the many positive reviews I read before buying.

I really don't know how to begin this review, but beware!! Once you use the product you will be addicted to the exceptional coffee!! My entire family loves it. We loved it so much I purchased a machine for my daughter. It makes exceptional expresso as well as my favorite, cappuccinos! I love it so much that I actually pack it up and travel with it. We've had this machine for the last year and have had no issues (fingers crossed). Nespresso offers a range of flavors, bold, medium, sweet, exotic, and so on. When I purchased my machine it included a sample pack of a variety of flavors to sample. It was awesome to explore the options. Unfortunately where I live we do not have a Nespresso store near by to purchase the capsules in person. However, Nespresso has exceptional online customer service (website) that has the option of auto ship (which I use) that ensures we're never out of coffee. You're also able to increase orders if you know you're going to need more when company arrives.... this happens often in our house. Absolutely love, love, love this product.
