[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely loved this machine and the compact size. The iced coffee is also amazing and i will be ordering more of those for sure. The water reservoir is large enough for several cups.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had my Nespresso for about 2 months now. I never knew coffee could be so amazing....all the time! Thank you!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nespresso Vertuo Pop+ is a premium at-home espresso brewer with a small footprint and bold colors. I received the "Spicy Red" Vertuo Pop+ as a free sample in exchange for my honest review.
My initial impression is that the "bold" colors are a bit too extreme for the average consumer... while marketed as "stylish" I think the people who would really be interested in some of these colors (Pacific Blue, Spicy Red, Aqua Mint and Mango Yellow) are few and far between and the black/silver/gray are more appropriate for the masses and sitting out on a kitchen counter. Ignoring the colors, however, I do like that it has a small footprint (albeit a matching small water reservoir).
This is my first experience with a Nespresso machine and I honestly felt that the pod naming convention was overly complicated and "trying too hard" and I just wanted the basic questions answered... what is the size (espresso, double espresso, a coffee or mug) and what is the flavor and each time I went to make a drink I wished that the experience was more intuitive. Perhaps I'm just used to "coffee" and selecting the sizes of the brew, but this wasn't necessarily an enjoyable discomfort. Buying new pods was equally confusing and expensive.
As for the actual beverages... I found the machine to be excessively loud while brewing (perhaps this is the "Centrifusion" technology) but it's much louder than I expected. I also didn't like the method of adjusting brew sizes - you can "hold" the button longer and then it remembers for future brews, but I would prefer an option of a small/medium/large option for each of the pods so it has 3 options of adjusting volume that can be selected based off each cup. I felt like I was afraid to try that feature because I worried I'd "mess it up" and be stuck like that.
As for taste... I really enjoyed the "iced" coffee and would definitely be a repeat user there!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I truly was not expecting to fall in love with this little machine. Although it is louder than a keurig it brews strong, creamy and delicious coffees. I would highly recommend this machine to anyone. It's compact, visually appealing and brews nice and slow making the best iced coffees that aren't watered down.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the perfect size for an office or small space kitchen coffee maker! Once you try Nespresso coffee/espresso you will never be able to drink regular drip coffee again. The flavor is so much more strong and smooth tasting. My favorite drink is lattes and you can make one with this that tastes just as good or better than one you get at a coffee shop. They offer so many different types of coffees and espressos that you will definitely find something you will enjoy. I would recommend this to anyone who loves great quality great tasting coffee/espresso at home!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am super impressed with how easy and convenient this machine is. Even the pods are coded with the type of coffee ( espresso, iced, etc), so there is no messing up your “order”. I love that the pods are easily recyclable, and pop back into the machine so you don’t even have to remember to unload after each use. My only drawback is that my husband and I both thought it sounded like an airplane was going off in our home while we were using it. This is definitely not a machine that can be used while our children are still sleeping, for fear that it will wake them up. I received the black color, and would have loved a teal version to go with the rest of my kitchen, but that’s just a personal preference, and not something to deduct stars for.
