Poor Quality, dont let pretty colors distract you!

If you want a cute decoration, but something that doesnt work-- this machine is for you. I should have followed my intuition when I first it-- the opening mechanism seemed very cheap and not smooth at all, but I loved the yellow color they offered. I bought my vertuo pop+ last april, but did not start using it until August in college-- after about 6 months of use, the opening mechanism got very stiff. Now, 2 months later I have to forcefully open and close it with 2 hands its so stiff. Once closed it blinks red each time so I have to open and close it about 2-3 times to adjust with each brew before it will work. Like I predicted, the opening mechanism is very cheap and honestly just poorly designed. I have performed all the suggested maintenance in my instructions within the intervals stated, and it still makes coffee that is warm, not hot with huge amounts of foam. My family has a VertuoPlus deluxe and that has held up for years-- get this instead. I started the process to claim a warranty for my machine, but unfortunately I was 20 days too late -- Sad because its basically useless now after 10 months. Unfortunately its a beautiful machine and would be perfect for my small apartment, but not if it doesn't work...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the retro look, super slim and fits nice on the counter. It doesn’t make large carafe coffees but besides that we like it more than the original.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought the Vertuo Pop Plus to replace a Keurig we had for several years, what a great decision! We have found it is much easier to use, the appearance and functions of the Nespresso Coffee Machine is far superior to the previous machine we had.
They break very quickly, this one only lasted 6 months
