Nespresso Vertuo Pop Coffee and Espresso Maker by DeLonghi Black Matte with Dark Chrome

This is my review of the all black matte Nespresso vertuo pop I 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! Read more

So far I love it. Went to Italy and American coffee isn’t going to work for me anymore. Researched these machines and settled on this model as it was easy to learn and use and good price point. This was my first Nespresso and I found it easy to learn this system. Read more

I bought this machine for my wife. I have mastered our espresso machine but now my wife makes better espresso than me! I was trained as a barista. The Nesspresso is magnificent! Its Crema/ foam is amazingly thick and impressive and the taste of the coffee itself is wonderful. Sure engineering and process miracle! Read more

I bought this for my daughter and she loves it! It is slim to fit on her counter and the options of where to put the water container is helpful. She loves the coffee she makes with it and appreciated the enclosed sample Nespresso coffee pods. Read more

I think it's been about a year I've had my vertuo pop plus. The good: excellent coffee. I just love the poor, delicious cream-that's what I wanted! The not so good: the vertuo + uses wifi (not a requirement to use at all) however, if you're installing the app and want the features such as adjustable brew times you'll need it. , your wifi signal may have to be Adjusted to a deferent frequency which I'm not doing that. The really not good. Although the machine itself is relatively inexpensive, the pods are not. They're the most costly out of the Nespresso line and there are no third - party vertuo pods. Read more

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. Read more

It’s ok for coffee the foam or crème? Isn’t my jam, it look looks good and maybe I’ll get used to it. But the espresso pods have been amazing. I had no clue what I was doing to the point I didn’t know what recipe to look up, or what steamed milk was. I made one shot of espresso hot, added milk and creamer for sweetness, some ice and the espresso last. To my surprise it was very good, slightly better than any thing I’ve got from Starbucks on its best day. I was regretting my purchase until I tried the espresso pods, now i use it along side my Keurig. Read more
