Delicious coffee. Terrible machine

I really want to love this machine, but it gets harder everyday. We are on our second machine now in just under a year. Nespresso replaced the first one after about six months because we kept getting errors that would not reset. Turns out you can't use the Starbucks Nespresso pods (that say Nespresso all over the box) because it will reset the sensors and just stop reading pods. On our second machine signed up for automatic delivery of Nespresso coffee. We still get random errors after two cups almost daily. They usually reset themselves after a few hours or if I unplug the machine, but at this point it's more trouble than it's worth. Our second delivery of pods was so badly damaged the machine couldn't read them, but Nespresso did send out replacements right away free of charge . Love the coffee, but at this point not worth the expense of the machine, the pods or my time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for your review. We share in your frustration regarding your experience with your Vertuo Next machine. We certainly want your Nespresso experience to be special and exactly to your satisfaction. We suggest when turning on your machine, allow your machine to warm up. The light will begin to pulse slowly for about 30 seconds, indicating the “warm-up” phase. Once the light is steady the machine is ready for use. Insert your Nespresso capsule, and ensure the lever is fully locked. The lever must go past the lock symbol and there should be a slight click sound when fully locked. For best maintenance for your Vertuo Next, we recommend to always eject the used capsule after every use, run the Clean Cycle once a week to eliminate coffee grounds build up within the brew unit, and descale your machine every three months. All removable spare parts, including the water tank, should be washed by hand at least once a week. Nespresso offers a lifetime of troubleshooting support. Please feel free to visit Nespresso.com/help for comprehensive maintenance and troubleshooting guides or speak with a Coffee Specialist through our live chat feature. You may also call our toll-free phone number, 800-562-1465 where we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Thank you.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the look of this machine, but that's just an extra perk, the coffee is the real star. It's so good and easy to make. I'm a big nespresso fan!
I bought this machine and almost immediately had problems. It would stop working at least twice a week, and I wound up returning it within a month because it just completely stopped functioning. The machine wouldn't pull water from the tank and would constantly have problems. This machine also is noisy and very clunky. Would it pull a nice shot of espresso? Absolutely. But the amount of work I would go through fixing this machine was not worth it (especially for the price). I am probably going to buy the Vertuo Plus in hopes of a better experience! The Next just seems to have too many mechanical issues.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Worked great for a month, then stopped all useful function. Would brew a tiny amount or a full tank of water then stopped working altogether. Just purchased the PLUS brewer instead. Crossing my fingers that we have better luck with that one.

I have been through 2 of these machines and they keep breaking. The first one lasted almost a year and then the laser that reads the coffee went out on it. The second one lasted even shorter at a few months. It won't do anything, not even a cleaning cycle. It is stuck on a white light.
Haven’t had this machine long and it’s gone through a period of not working at all followed by now it will randomly drain the entire tank when making coffee (but not every time, extremely random). I have a pixie as well that has run beautifully for six years now but this machine has nothing but problems. I’m just trying to get through the coffee already purchased before getting rid of it.
