Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe

This is my review of the all black matte Nespresso vertuo popI have had many different styles and types of coffee today, didn’t know what a double shot of expresso was but now I do! Lol so now that I am very over caffeinated I am ready to review this thing! Let me start off by saying I own a Mocha Master and I still love it, as far as making a whole pot of coffee goes the mocha master is still the best HOWEVER the Nespresso has definitely earned its place next to my mocha master. This thing is compact! Which I appreciate because I don’t like having a bunch of machines and stuff cluttering my coffee bar. The color is beautiful I highly recommend going with the all matte black one it looks like black satin very pretty! The brew time is fast not sure what anyone would have complaints about it, I can get a cup of coffee depending on the size in 30sec-1min. Seems like a well built machine that should last, it did flash red on me the first use so I’m hoping that’s not foreshadowing that me and this machine are going to have ongoing issues lol but Ive made about 6 more cups with no issues. I love the way it disposes of its lil pods they just slide right into a tiny built in trashcan when you open the machine then you can just pull that out and dump! Now the taste, the taste is on point I’ve heard mixed reviews about Nespresso coffee and its taste but I am a coffee snob! I’m probably one of the only moms in the world that hates Starbucks because their coffee tastes like burnt beans unless you put mass amounts of sugar and crap in it to hide the taste, but a plain cup of black coffee from Starbucks is undrinkable to me so that being said I think Nespresso makes a pretty darn good cup of coffee (plain black coffee I didn’t add anything to it) lots of flavor and I do enjoy the lil bit of foam it makes on top of each cup! Even their double shot of espresso is good just by itself you don’t even need to mix it with anything if you don’t want to. So being the coffee snob that I am and not loving a lot of unnecessary machines all over the place the Nespresso can stay on the counter because it will be getting lots of use, I love it!

I'd had my old Nespresso Vertuo for nearly 10 years and it was time to replace, so I decided try this Vertuo Pop+ Deluxe. It's great. It's a bit smaller than my previous Nespresso which is nice. It is super easy to use, makes absolutely no mess, and I love that it brews so many sizes of espresso and coffee. The frother works great and is fast. It heats up almost instantly and makes the brew with a really nice froth.

I LOVE THIS!!! It makes the best coffee, and it is super easy to use. However, I do have some trouble with the included milk frother turning off before warming the milk, and I have to turn it on again to get it to work. The pods are a bit expensive but cheaper than getting coffee out every day.

I’ve always wanted great coffee at home without the hassle—and this machine delivered exactly that. With just one button, I get a rich, smooth cup of coffee or espresso in under a minute. The Vertuo pods are super convenient, and the crema on top makes it feel like a fancy café drink every time.It’s compact and looks sleek on the counter, especially in silver. The water heats up fast, and I love how the machine auto-detects the pod type to brew the right size—no guesswork, just great coffee with no smell.Perfect for busy mornings or relaxing afternoons when I want something a step above regular drip coffee. If you want café-level drinks without leaving your house, this is the way to go.

This is my second Nespresso machine. Great coffee by the way. The first one jammed and wouldn't work, just out of warranty. They don't repair out of warranty units. It seems the gears or something similar gets out of alignment after many uses and it will start clicking and then the RED error. You then have to unplug the unit to clear the error. After closing and locking and then opening several times, can sometimes clear the jamming. I found that when done using, keep the lid closed which seems to help prevent this from happening. You can tell when this is going to happen soon by the increased grinding noise when making coffee

Bought this machine on sale with a 30 pack of Carmel, vanilla, and Hazelnut pods for a little less than the price of the the machine alone. The machine makes excellent coffee compared to a K-cup machine. The difference in flavor and quality would be like comparing VHS to DVD, or more like comparing VHS to Bluray if you are old enough to get the reference. I bought a cheep $36 electric milk frother to go with it and I am ecstatic with the results. I love the crema that this machine produces.The machine came with a sample kit, and a $10 coupon if you order directly from the Nespresso web site. The machine is one touch because it reads barcodes on the pods. Keurig tried this when they went to the Keurig 2 and was not very popular because people had a bunch of pods that could not be used in their new machines.The only cons that I can see is the price of the pods and Nespresso being proprietary with their pods (this is a good thing as it ensures the quality, and bad if Nespresso ever goes out of business). I would recommend buying the pods from Nespresso directly, as the pods are the same price and they include samples of coffee.I still use the Keurig, because I have a boatload of K-cups, but once I start running out of those and have a ready supply of the Nespresso pods I can see the Keurig being retired. Nespresso pods are around $125 pod, and K-cups are around $.55 a pod. For quality and enjoyability the Nespresso is worth the price difference, especially if you are able to find a flavor you enjoy.

Good product, easy to operate. Did not care for the sample coffies that came with it, switched to Starbucks brands and like these much better even with the additional cost to purchase them. I am happy with the Nepresso product though and would recommend.
