After one year, the machine won't brew coffee anymore. After meticulous cleaning and descaling, we're now stuck with a constant blinking orange light of death every time we try to brew a cup. Stay away!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for your review. A blinking light on this machine can indicate your machine is not closed correctly, requires descaling or the water tank is empty.

We have had many Nespresso Machines both Original and Vertuo Lines. The first Evoluo machine has been great! We have had it for years and it makes a nice foamy cup of coffee, and we don't have to fill the water tank too often which was nice. We have the Vertuo Plus in our office and we do like it, the tank is pretty large so again we don't have to fill it too often and its probably Nespresso's most quite machine, the only thing I don't like is the electronic component of loading in a pod, I just don't think its necessary but it wasn't a deal breaker... With the New Vertuo Next.. So far I am very disappointed, it's the smallest water tank and with 2 people in the house you will be refilling the water tank daily if you both drink 2 cups of coffee. Its ironic that the machine with the smallest water tank makes the largest pod of coffee (The Caraffe).. and also Nespresso says this machine will get foamier over time, but so far its not very foamy, and the coffee doesnt taste the same or as good as the older machines I have.
I loved the coffee and was super excited about the machine. I took care of it by descaling and cleaning often. It didn't even last a year before the error messages started non-stop. The flashing orange/red light just won't quit. It should certainly last more than a couple months, especially with the care I was giving it! So disappointing.

Not a very well designed machine. This thing started leaking and would not take the commands to clean it.

We replaced our old Virtuo machine with this piece of junk, alas. Within a week, we were googling how to make it stop flashing orange—which is something it does every couple of days. It’s less than a month old. I mean, seriously? Would not recommend this machine to anyone.

Like most other reviews, the design is flawed and works well only for a few months at a time. After my first replacement, it worked well for 6 months and then the light would turn orange and not brew. Nespresso had the nerve to send me a refurbished machine, which only lasted 2 weeks before it would over brew coffee and leak everywhere. Prior to issuing replacements, I wish they would save everyone’s time with troubleshooting. Nothing ever works and they clearly know this machine is flawed and should be improved or removed.
I loved this machine for about 4 months, beautiful machine, beautiful coffee… then it stopped working. I’ve since had three replacement machines, each one worse than the one before. Won’t go into detail on each one, just know this machine is deeply flawed, and you should stay away. With that being said, Nespresso customer service is great. Although around the third machine the troubleshooting process becomes pretty tedious. I laid out my frustrations on this last one and was quickly offered the original vertuo machine as a replacement. Hopefully this will be a reliable machine… stay away from the Next
