Nespresso VertuoPlus Deluxe

Very disappointed – I bought this machine as I wanted better crema than my De Longhi coffee machine was able to give me. In the adverts, this one looked perfect and it makes several sizes too. First couple of cups were awful….bitter and hardly any crema, just large bubbles. So I called customer service and the agent got me to do a factory reset. The first cup did… Read more

look a bit better, more crema and smaller bubbles but then it went back to a very thin layer of large bubbles….not crema. I’m very disappointed because I only bought the machine for that…..now I’m stuck with a subscription of $50 a month for a year. What a waste!

Ease of Use, Coffee Cost, Warranty – The machine is easy to use and the coffee is almost as good as my favourite coffee shops. Being at home is very convenient and the cost per cup is 25% that of the coffee shops. I would prefer the coffee to be noticably hotter than it is. To help with that I fill the cup with boiling water from an instant water dispenser. Once the cup is full… Read more

of hot water, only then I press the button to start the coffee machine. When the machine is ready, I put in the pod, empty the hot cup, place the heated cup in position and press the button.

One can refill the pods with a coffee of your own choice by reusing the pods as shown on YouTube and with several new pod covers available from Amazon.

It came with a two year warranty. After about 15 months a coffee leak developed at the back. Nespresso repaired the machine without cost. I wonder if the newer models which appear different in the photos have overcome a design flaw.

I'm very glad that I bought this machine and can make a terrific hot enough affordable cup of coffee with my preferred Nespresso pods or another brand of ground coffee if desired.

Great coffee ... but does it deliver under lockdown? – I was converted to Nespresso Vertuo in the US & when we came back to Australia, we had to buy a new machine. Under lockdown, I love the machine and quality of the coffee cup. What I do not like is the fact that you cannot buy Vertuo capsules unless from Nespresso online and under lockdown delivery is delayed ... this may the one point the makes me… Read more

sell the machine (and go back to DeLonghi) ... update 2 yrs after purchase: actually love it more (just buy pods in advance ;) and don't forget to regularly put it into Clean mode to keep it from leaking). Pods expensive, but everything is relative ... it's a great coffee & crema

Nespresso VertuoPlus - Automatic Coffee machine – I am a Nespresso fan now. This machine makes consistently good brew (Possibly due to the bar coded program on each pod) in espresso shot sizes 30ml to Grande / Alto 415ml !! This is much better than the old pods where you have to go through a few to make a thermos sized coffee to go. While the Vertuo pods are only available from Nespresso there… Read more

are a huge range to choose from and they always have promotional exotic flavors to try. One thing about this machine is that single button operation gets a bit technical when trying to access the advanced modes.
