Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee and Espresso Maker by Breville with Aeroccino Milk Frother, White Reviews

I received the Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee and Espresso Maker by Breville with Aeroccino Milk Frother in white at no cost to me in exchange for my honest review of this product. I don't give an automatic good review unless the product is worthy of that. I don't recommend a product unless the product earns the recommendation. The Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee and Espresso Maker by Breville with Aeroccino Milk Frother has its good and not so good qualities. I'll start with the good. It has a sleek modern design and comes in three parts. The machine, the water tank, and the milk frother. Although there three pieces, it does not take up a large amount of counter space. There are three positions you can use for placing the water tank- left, right, or center, all behind the machine. There are also two positions you can choose from for placing the electrical cord which are left or right. I appreciated that feature because I am able to have the cord where I want it. The milk frother can be placed anywhere you choose. It is not connected to the machine and has its own cord. You can make multiple sizes of cups ranging from 0.3 Oz to 17 Oz. On the back side of the machine is a capsule storage container, however, no information is given as to if this is for full capsules or empty capsules. I did find a brief notation in the user guide that once your capsule container is full of empty capsules you can contact the company and they will send you a recycling bag to mail the empty capsules back to them so based on that I assume the storage is for the empty capsules. The paperwork included with the Nespresso are an instruction booklet for the machine, an Instruction booklet for the frother, and brief pamphlet of how to use and the coffees offered. The machine is fairly easy to use. We used it on our annual farm Christmas baking weekend. The flavor of the coffee is absolutely amazing. It did take two of us reading the instructions first to be able to use the machine. It also took a phone call to customer service due to an issue of being able to open the top of the machine. Customer Service was great. A real person, no wait time, professional, and kind. Now for the not so great points of this machine. The instruction book for the milk frother is lacking information that one needs in order to use it. On the page that shows you the parts included, it should have those labeled on that same page and not several pages later given in a description. Also, on page EN of the frother directions it states to attach the revelant whisk. Ok, how does the average user know which whisk is revelant? There should be recipe guide included and there isn't. I also looked at the website for a recipe guide and couldn't find one, but was able to find one by going to Google and typing in Nespresso recipes. There needs to be more information included in the box on what part is for what and how to make the coffees pictured if Nespresso is going to meet their stated goal of everyone being able to create the perfect cup of coffee just like a skilled barista. Overall I do recommend the Nespresso machine, but there are a few things to keep in mind that I mentioned in my review. Also, you will need to purchase Nespresso Descaling solution for descaling the machine which will cost between $10-26 depending on where you purchase that. Coffee capsules run between $.85 to $2.00 each or can be purchased in a multipack. I will be buying the reusable capsule. A starter pack of capsules are included and was my favorite part of this. The capsules come in a box and beautiful. It's like a box of jeweled chocolates. Also one last thing to keep in mind, if you are a decaf drinker, there are not a lot of decaf capsule options available. I would suggest for decaf drinkers to purchase the reusable capsule.

The brevill nespresso vertigo plus coffee and espresso single serve machine with aeroccino milk frothier is very well made and top of line in coffee makers. I couldn't wait to try this machine out. I was really wowed by what the machine could do a lot of things. This machine is self cleaning. In less than 2 minutes your coffee machine will clean itself. And the used pods empty into a nice bin r in the back of the machine, that is so nice, you don't have to get the pods out yourself. The machine runs smoothly and is not very loud. And very easy to work, all is needed is the push of a button. But be sure before trying to install a pod plug in the unit and have it on before trying to open to insert a pod. This machine does a lot of the tedious things that most regular machines cannot do. It also comes with a milk frothier. That is simple and easy to use, in just a minute push a button and it's ready in ready in less than one minute. The machine is heavy and very sturdy, I love the sleek desigjGreat machine I love it I can't wait to make cappuchinno. I would definitely would recommend this product to my family and friends. It also comes with a box of free coffee pods to use.

This Nespresso Vertuo Plus Coffee & Espresso, with Aeroccino milk frother, is my new best friend. It took no time to set up, and start to use. It is just amazing having coffee with crema, right out of the machine. Also having the milk frother which makes frothing simple is an added bonus.

This Nespresso set is the VertuoPlus.Comes with a manual for the machine and a separate manual to learn how to use the brother. Since this is my first espresso machine - I read all manuals first. The cup support has four positions from holding a small cup to a large cup of coffee. factory settings: espresso - 1.35 oz coffee- 7.77 oz and tall cup is - 14 oz. This machine only uses Nespresso vertuo capsules. Nespresso classic capsules can not be used with this model. This model comes with a variety flavored capsules to use with the maker - glass cup not included. I recommend this model! Can be given as a gift! Would recommend for purchase.

The Nespresso is a very sleek looking appliance. It has a narrow profile, which is nice because it takes up less space on the counter. It also has a nice feature where the water tank can be positioned either on the left, right or back of the machine, making it easier to adjust to your space. The Nespresso automatically ejects the used pods into a container on the back of the machine, so no messy dripping when removing. The platform that holds the cup can be adjusted up and down to accommodate tall or small cups, which also helps reduce any splashing. The appliance was well packaged and came with easy to understand directions. It also comes with a milk frother. The instructions for that part were a bit less clear, but still not difficult to figure out. This machine came with a sample box 12 pods, 4 espresso and eight coffee. I made a regular cup of coffee and also an espresso. Both were very good, with appropriate strength. I prefer my coffee a little stronger and darker, but I tried one of the medium strength pods also and it had a very balanced flavor as well. The milk can be frothed cold or warm. Both worked well, resulting in a nice light and fluffy froth. I thought the warm setting was especially good. The pods have a bar code that the machine reads and then dispenses the correct amount of water for the type of coffee/espresso chosen. It also has a feature that allows you to adjust the water level by pushing the start button a few times to add more water. It then remembers the water level you prefer and uses that each time you make that style of coffee. It can be reset to the default setting when needed. Because the machine reads a bar code on the pods, you can only use the Nespresso pods specifically designed for this particular machine. That is a factor to consider, since the pods are a bit pricey. They are made of aluminum that can be recycled. When you order pods, you can order a free Nespresso recycle bag that, when full, can be dropped at a UPS store and sent to Nespresso for recycling. Overall, I really like this appliance. It is easy to use and nice looking addition to the kitchen. The coffee/espresso is very good and the warm milk froth adds that special touch. The cost of the special pods is something to consider when deciding on this purchase.

I love drinking and serving coffee at my holiday gatherings. I decided to try out this Breville Nespresson Vertuo Plus Coffee and Espresso Single serve machine. I am so pleased that I did. During my Thanksgiving weekend when I had guests over I pulled it out and said let's see how this works. We had it up and making coffee for everyone in less than five minutes! We barely read the instructions and it worked like a charm! The sampler pods we had described on the box lid each of the flavors profiles and gave it a numerical rating of the strength of the coffee. The pods are absolutely beautiful! They look like little jewels! You can make coffee or expresso in this machine. The coffee machine comes with a milk froth making apparatus. When your cup of coffee is done the machine, actually empties the pod and dump it in a reservoir in the back of the machine!!! You do not even have to touch the empty pods! Okay that got a lot of ooohs and aaahs from my guests. My guest could not stop going on about the smoothness of the coffee. I have never had such compliments from a single serving coffee machine before. I felt like the hit of the party! Nice machine Breville!!

I sure makes great coffee! Whether you like espresso or just regular coffee this can satisfy either. I had never actually drank an espresso but I'm definitely a fan! This machine does not take up a lot of precious counter space and the wster tank swivels around to keep it out of the way if needed. It was easy to figure out how to use and the directions are clear but it's pretty user friendly anyway. There isn't really a lot of set up and with my husband's helo we were making coffee in a few minutes. Making large or small cups of coffee and espresso with no issues. The neutral color fits well with my decorm The milk frother is super neat as well and works geeat. I can see it serving other kitchen uses too I absolutely recommend and it would make a great gift for that coffee lover on your list!

There is nothing better in the morning than smelling the aroma of a fresh made gourmet coffee! I have been a coffee connoisseur most of my life and truly love a frothy cappuccino, a pick-me-up espresso or any other great tasting coffee beverage, hot or cold! While I do splurge on an occasional Starbuck's coffee, the high price keeps me from purchasing it daily. The best alternative to Starbuck's or most other little coffee shops is an in-home, convenient coffee brewing system, in my opinion! I recently tried out the Nespresso VertuoPlus Coffee and Espresso Maker Bundle with Aeroccino Milk Frother by Breville in the White color. I will mention that I was appreciatively given this product to try for free through Spark Reviewer in exchange for my honest opinion. It also came bundled with 12 delectable flavors of coffee! It's modern, yet classic in design without being bulky. The water reservoir pivots easily to sit on the side or back of the machine to accommodate any area in your kitchen. Initial set-up was very easy by following the included set-up card. It simply required cleaning the machine out with one cycle of running water through it. Next, I filled the desired amount of water into the water reservoir, pushed the start button, and then waited for about twenty seconds for the machine to heat the water and then I loaded the aluminum coffee capsule into the unit. Within less than a minute, a delicious cup of coffee was brewed! The included milk frother whipped up fluffy & light foam within seconds and added the perfect touch to my already incredibly-smooth tasting coffee! This really is a great coffee maker! I also love how you can send the used coffee capsules back to the company for recycling. All in all, I LOVE this machine! The coffee is scrumptious, and one-third the cost of what I am used to paying for great coffee at a shop! This would make a GREAT Christmas gift for ANY Coffee Lover!

This machine is perfect for those who love coffee. Fast, clean and easy to use, this product helps you to get your coffee right on time. The aeroccino milk frother is just the perfect match for a great morning drink. PROS - Nice and modern design makes you kitchen to look sophisticated - Includes 9 capsules and milk frother - Quiet performance CONS - You cannot use generic capsules for this product, as other brand does - It is bigger than regular coffee machines, so you will need extra room in your kitchen

This is a cool all in one coffee maker! Fill the water tank with water then slide in place. Put the pod in the holder. There are three sizes of pods. Close the lid. Press the button. And you have a nice cup of coffee! The thermos looking thing is the milk frother... You pour the milk in the top, close. And it swirls... I must say my favorite part. The coffee maker comes with a disposal system so when your pod is used, it has a holding section. easy stores the use pods and easy to clean it out and throw them away. Very very good coffee! Super easy. And extremely elegant!
