Espressotoria Capino

Do not buy – These are the flaws of this machine: 1) Their Pods are Not compatible with the Nespresso coffee pods, even though Vittoria make pods specifically for the Nespresso machine. 2) the machine, unlike the Nespresso machine is big & bulky & takes up bench space. 3) Vittoria love to be different & want to rip people off by trying to enter a niche… Read more

market.

4) No choice but to buy the rubbish Non-Nesspresso coffee capsules called Espressotoria.

5) very expensive coffee capsules at $10 for 12 capsules.

6) Nespresso capsules are more abundant & come in a variety of products.

7) you are better of with a fantastic Nespresso machine & frother set for Only $99.

8) the Nespresso machine & milk frothers are fantastic.

9) avoid buying the rubbish ALDI Expressi machine & frother because it's very unreliable.

10) it's also not compact like the Nespresso.

11) The Nespresso Capsules are much better value for money. For example a pack of 50 Nespresso capsules from eBay will only set you back $7.90c. That's 15c a pod.

Nice machine just doesn't get the coffee hot enough – Woolworths recently had a deal where if you purchased 6 packs of Vittorio capsule coffee you received a $99 dollar coffee pod machine for free. So we thought why not? Makes a great cup of coffee in no time and as long as you enjoy it black it stays hot. I like cream with mine and find I have to zap it in the microwave for 30 seconds to bring it… Read more

up to heat. I don't want to go out and purchase the milk frother that is available because that is $60 and I don't drink milk.

Vittorio capsules has one of my favourite coffees, ORO and all the flavour comes through just like the beans in my plunger so I am happy about that.

The machine doesn't leak, no stuck, broken capsules, has a 1 litre water tank, automatic capsule remover, heats in 30 seconds and a pretty good machine for no cost.

Only one problem the machine is not compatible with other capsule but that is to be expected because they want you to purchase their coffee. Good thing I love Vittorio coffee.

Compact and efficient – We purchased our Espressotoria machine after our very expensive Nespresso broke down and cost us $180 to fix. We happened to see the Espressotoria machine on special at our local Woolworths store whereby upon purchasing $50 worth of capsules you could purchase the machine outright for $50. This was half of the original price at the time. The… Read more ·  1

machine is very compact and looks good on the bench. It's very easy to use and the coffee flavours are much better than Nespresso, which claim to be the best quality. We found the Espressotoria to make excellent coffee and the pods were much easier to buy locally than constantly applying online to Nespresso. The machine is super easy to use and although it does not come with a milk frother, we found that whole routine superfluous to our needs. We've been very happy with our machine and would recommend it to people who want something a step up from instant coffee but without the hassle of a very expensive $3,000 coffee making machine.

Excellent for a year and half. [Content Removed] – 5 star for coffee 1 star for machine. Bought 5 in the last 7 years. They start leaking into tray at about a year and a half

Solution To Splitting Capsules – I've have the original model and recently the capsules split. Descaling it didn't fix it.. I gather the machine has worn, or weakened its grip, as it's unable to make the circle of holes at the back of the capsule. SOLUTION: Stick the backside in the kettle spout, or gently heat in grill or oven once turned off. It softens to make it just… Read more

quietly pop like new, instead of explode and pee water in the bottom. The holes are big as normal now, though still misses 3. Turns your Apollo 13 into Apollo 11. Mission Successful.

Don't forget to peel and recycle those space capsules, boys and girls, so they can re-enter the Earth safely.

Excellent coffee machine – My previous Espressotoria machine finally got a puncture. I purchased my new Espressotoria machine at Woolworths for half price. The new machine is smaller and hence the tank is smaller. Still makes a great cup coffee ☕️ Show details

Do not buy this coffee machine – I would give this machine no stars but it won't allow me to. Do not be stupid like me, I'm onto coffee machine number 6 in 2 years. These machines are a complete waste of money. I kept thinking I was doing something wrong but after reading all the bad reviews I realise it's not me, it's the coffee machine. All your coffee ends up in the pod… Read more

holder. The pods do not fit properly. This machine should be taken off the market as it is a complete rip off and does not do what it says it will. Do not waste your money.

Stay clear – Very slow keeps stopping just a waste of money do not waste your time or money Show details

Waste of pods The first one last 6 months wasted many pods coffee runs straight into pod catcher second 1 does the same – Great machine but the pods are faulty so I don’t recommend this machine Show details

Poor machine, more coffee goes in the pod tray then the cup – Had the machine for just over 12 months. More coffee goes into to pod catch tray then into my cup. I have cleaned the seal and put de-scaler through it but still leaks. Also can only use their pods and not compatible with others. Show details

WORST FROTHER EVER DO NOT BUY – Have gone through 2 in a month. Works fine one minute and then will not turn on the next. Horrible product and would not buy this brand again. The machine and pods we have also spent money on is now all a waste Show details

Doesn't deserve one star – Just brought from woolies and all it does is leak water into the machine and all over the counter Don't buy it . Waste of money ( Need to have 30 words hdhe hshhdhdje hsheheheheh owowknebeu jeubendidj jshjehe Show details

Capino no flow – The machine does not flow well. Cleaned it weekly but will not flow, about to pack it up and put it in the bin, going out to buy some instant, better. The time I have wasted with this machine! Show details

The system may work fine, BUT – The company is constantly running out of the Pods. And since you and REQUIRED to use their pods exclusively, you are stuck between a rock and a hard place. The worst part of owning one of these, however, is the customer service you get from the company. It is absolutely terrible customer service. They just stop responding to you... Just go with a Nespresso and stay far away from this company. Show details

love it – purchased machine two weeks ago and am very happy with it...as i have low tolerence to caffeine have to use decaf and vittoria pods..lovely..only trouble i have is the mug size..sometimes it doesnt work...have to press couple of times to get mug amount Show details

Coffee in pod bucket – Third machine from these people.Latest is a piccolo machine. Less than six months old.Coffee is very good,But ends up in pod bucket.Absolute rubbish.Don't buy.Send your money on a better machine. Show details

Crap machine !! – Six of these, work well for first few months then start leaking . Crap machines and poor customer service so I warn and recommend people do not buy this machine and look else where for a machine at or similar price point. Total crap !  Show details

Would not recommend this - waste of money – First few uses are OK but then after a while the coffee stops coming through and half your cup ends up in the pod tray. Worth paying more for something better. Show details

Waste of money! – Worked ok for the first few weeks, then went downhill from there, as I am now embarrassed to offer anyone a coffee as it never comes out properly. Have to use 2 pods, because you only get a few drips of coffee coming out. Complete waste of money!!  Show details

I think this machine is not worth it – I bought this machine last week after 2 days it broke then I went for replacement and finally I got replacement and again 2 days ago the machine just gives water and I’ve to waste 2-4 capsules for 1 cup of coffee.. Show details

Weak coffee – Have owned different brand previously so have some experience with these machines. Coffee very weak. I have used four different 'flavours' .Certainly does not meet my expectations comparing with previous coffee made by friends with different brand of machine.  Show details

CRAP of a machine – in two years we bought two of those junk machines. With the first one we thought it was just our bad luck but it turns out whoever makes this rubbish has the only intention to rob the customers. Definitely not again, this junk must exposed as the worse product ever invented in the las 200 years. Please do not be a sucker, stay away from this Expressotoria s...t. Show details

Used less than dozen of times now in the bin! – Was given this machine, have used by instruction however it leaked everywhere in the disposed capsules container after used less than dozen of times (so you constantly wasted your capsules to try to get coffee because they all leaked). Contacted the customer service, they couldn’t fix the problems and suggested to BUY another same one from… Read more

woollies at special price. But no, I won’t try this machine again it’s waste money and it’s very unfriendly for the environment if the machine only last that little time.
