Inconsistent machine

Posted by: AS1234
We bought our machine in May 2021. It worked fine until the end of January 2022. We started having to run a cleaning cycle daily just to get it to brew a cup of coffee. We called three times to troubleshoot, and ultimately they sent us a new Next machine since it was still under warranty. We had the new machine a week, and it just died. We can't get it to brew, to reset, to run a cleaning cycle. Nothing! Called Nespresso, and tried to troubleshoot with no success. They're sending a new VertuoPlus machine now. To be clear, customer service has been great. I know they have to do everything on their end to make sure it's not an issue that can be resolved. I'm hopeful a new, different machine will bring us better luck and more coffee!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Was fine working at first but then there were some issues and then one day it didn't work at all. The water tower drippped as well. Nespresso is replacing it but discouraged by the product's inefficiency.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an avid coffee drinker, I'd become accustomed to the strong brew from my standard “drip style" coffee pot. When I received the Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee and Espresso Machine in the color Cherry Red, I was immediately drawn to its slim and sleek design, and trendy color. Measuring only 5.5 inches wide, it’s less than half the width of my drip style machine, and the color added a gorgeous modern “pop” to my kitchen. I was extremely impressed with the Nespresso Vertuo Next’s overall brewing ingenuity. I found that with the touch of a button, I could enjoy a “coffee shop style” espresso, double espresso, 5 or 8 ounce cup of coffee, or 18 ounce Carafe of coffee, from the comfort of my own home. Each capsule I savored was brewed to perfection based upon its portion, temperature, and brewing time- for its superior boldness. All I had to do is press ONE button, and the machine adapted itself to the parameters the specific capsule! This coffee machine is simply brilliant! The only (slight) pitfall that I found was that the locking mechanism is relatively difficult to close, and required some strength. I could see where people may be leery of breaking the machine; however, I found that a forceful close safely locks the capsule in place for brewing. I am definitely a Nespresso Vertuo Next coffee and espresso fan for life! #Nespresso
Customer Service is great, but I've struggled keeping this machine. I thought it was the pods that didn't work, but I do think it's the machine. I just purchased $100 worth of pods, so I'm hoping this machine will brew it! So far it's very sporadic.......

Thank you for your review, Terri. 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 and run the Cleaning Cycle at least once a week. The Vertuo Next comes with a one-year warranty and a lifetime of troubleshooting support through Nespresso. 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.
While I LOVE the coffee and think it’s coffee shop quality, this machine is garbage. My first one stopped working days after purchasing, customer service was amazing and sent me a replacement. Now 6 months later, that one broke as well! Customer service again was super helpful and they are now sending me the Verturo Plus. Hoping for better luck with that machine because I do like the quality of the coffee.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine makes incredible coffee!! It’s also a relatively small footprint so doesn’t take up much counter space. I do feel like it’s a bit unnecessarily high tech, I definitely had some issues getting it set up with a blinking light and while trying to resolve that ran into some complaints from others about this model which makes me nervous that I might run into some issues down the line. I also wish there were more options of where to buy pods, nespresso has a good variety on their site but would love to be able to pick them up more locally or even have a refillable pod style that I could fill with locally roasted beans.
Is the worst machine I ever tried. Easy to use but nothing practical

Coffee tastes amazing, perfect temperature! Love the coffee selection. But I swear it’s so confusing and it’s constantly breaking down on me.
