I hardly ever write reviews, but this machine made me do it. I decided to buy this model because I thought the extra features, such as the appearance and the ability to adjust the temperature, were very important. But that was until I had to clean it: after each brewing cycle, there was a huge dirty puddle of coffee spilled all over the trash can. By the way, the CS is aware of this problem and admits that puddles may occur. I returned the model and settled on the Naxt, which I am very happy with. Thank you.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Vertuo Up is a superb advance over the previous models because it is fast and quiet, but most of all because the capsule insertion system is simple and quick to use. The footprint is slimmer, and the ability to rotate the water tank from left to right or in the middle allows adapting it strategically to different countertop situations. Altogether, a great values!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this coffee/espresso maker a month ago because my father had one similar and it made the best coffee that wasn't bought in a coffee store. The selections are all great. Haven't tried the iced coffee yet but my wife loves iced coffee so I'll give it a try for her. Highly recommend the machine.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been eyeing a nespresso machine for some time now and finally decided to buy one and I wish I had done so sooner! I love love love the nespresso vertuo up! I love the color as well. It’s beautiful in person! I enjoy making my coffee at home now. If you’re thinking about it, just buy it!
This is my second Nespresso machine and it’s terrible. I miss my old one so much (just stopped working after 4.5 yrs). This one makes a huge mess when you have to empty the used coffee containers. Liquid is everywhere in there and goes all over the counter when taking it out. The coffee also isn’t hot enough. I already tossed the packaging or I would return it. Do not buy.

Disappointed with the collection bin. Water and coffee grounds in the bin are an everyday issue. Instructions claim that is normal when doing the initial rinse or descaling. Continues when making coffee as well. The bin needs cleaned and rinsed out daily. New machine poorly designed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great coffee maker and has so many features. Set up is easy with scanning the QR code and downloading the app. Connecting the machine with Bluetooth was quick and easy to register . The app lets you adjust the temp (cold, normal, hotter) which is a really nice feature, depending on what you’re in the mood for. It includes videos showing how to clean, descale, brew, etc which was nice. There’s even recipes so you can be an at home barista . It’s so easy to brew- just drop a pod in, push the lid down , press the button. If you want to get creative - there’s a “creations” button where you can make adjustments. The. Pod sizes vary based on the type of coffee drink you’re brewing. I like how every cup makes a nice froth on top. All the flavors I’ve tried that came in the sample selection have been great tasting. Can’t wait to keep making more specialty drinks.
