I’ve had another (larger) Nespresso machine, and I love the coffee it makes. This one is smaller and takes up much less room on the counter, but it still makes the full-size cups of coffee. It has Bluetooth capability that communicates with a phone app to notify you of machine status and also provides a convenient way to place orders for more espresso and coffee pods. It comes with 12 pods to make different size espresso or regular size cups of coffee. It also comes with a $30 coupon to start you off with a coffee order of your choosing. I love the blue color as well. It looks great in my kitchen. The water tank is moderate size and holds enough for at least 2 regular size (7.7 oz) cups of coffee. There is an attachment on the front to hold the coffee cup, and it can be set to a higher level for Espresso cups, and a lower level for regular size coffee cups. Tall coffee cups can be used by removing the cupholder and setting it on the counter in front of the machine. I will note that the taller insulated travel coffee cups are too tall to use with this machine. I have included photos of different size mugs in front of the machine, and the mug shelf that is detachable and fits at two different levels. It does make a bit of noise during the active brewing process, but that only lasts about a minute for each cup. You can hear the noise in the video that I uploaded. After a coffee is brewed, when the top is opened again, the previous coffee pod is removed by the machine and shuttled to a storage drawer that you pull out on the left. This storage area for used pods probably holds around five used pods. I have provided photos of the coffee maker and all of the literature that came with it. Also a video of the brewing of the 1st cup. I used a graduated coffee mug so that you can see that this was one of the 7.7 oz (230 ml) coffee pods. Since there is a lot of foam generated during the brewing, the cup needs to be around 10 oz (300 mls) to hold everything for that size pod. After using my old Nespresso machine for the last three years, I will never go back to the other pod style machines or a drip coffee maker. The coffee pods have to be ordered online, but they come in just a couple of days in my experience and it has never been a problem getting enough pods. The coffees are superior quality and delicious. This new machine I am reviewing now is so convenient and small size which I love. I highly recommend this machine.
Update 4.13.23 I returned a very good I got in poor condition from coffeemakers.us.com Warehouse, first time this has happened, so I decided to give it another go. I ordered this one like new, I have not used it yet, but as I previously stated I own one that is easily two decades old and like it so much I want another for work/secondary residence (gf's house). This time coffeemakers.us.com delivered a like new item - as advertised. Again the only improvement to this work horse and major player in the coffee game would for it to completely shut off about an hour after it is initially plugged in to prevent scorching the stem and the bottom of the pot should all the coffee evaporate. The coffee maker goes into a stay warm mode once the coffee is made. On my older model I have literally written "unplug me" with a picture of an electrical plug on the top in permanent marker to remind my self to unplug it once the coffee is made. I've forgotten to unplug it twice, first time I majorly scorched the bottom in the hole where the stem sits and the stem. I had to use steel wool & scouring powder to get the char off, second time (a few days ago) it was minor and used a blue scrubbing pad. Some char remains but it does not affect the taste of the coffee. Four stars, great product highly recommend especially if you can get it in good condition at a discounted price. Initial Review: I inherited a coffee pot like this from my Father he used to drink a lot of coffee and it was definitely used. First off, let me say this is a GREAT coffee maker. I got tired of buying k-cups and brought the heavy artillery back out. I thought this coffee pot is so good I'll buy another one and take it to work or my girlfriend's house. Ordered this (first) one USED VERY GOOD. I have not bought anything directly from coffeemakers.us.com Warehouse that was listed in very good/like new condition that was not in excellent shape, very little to no visible signs of use. Until now, the box was new and it has been refurbished with a three prong female in the pot itself and a new detachable cord, unlike mine (2 prong) which is 20 to 30 years old or more. When I took it out of the box I was immediately disappointed on inspection this coffee pot probably works but is in FAIR condition at best, heavily used with a major crack in the base and a rusty screw on the bottom. The lettering on the sticker is worn (mine isn't). I tried to reason it out but then I saw the screw on the bottom was rusted. Yard sale/thrift shop condition with a refurbished cord. Almost immediately I put it back in the box to return it. The condition was unacceptable for VERY GOOD. However, I thought enough of this product overall to buy a second one (that I don't really need) at a discounted price. I wish it had an auto shut off after an hour. I try to unplug it as soon as the coffee is made as the warmer will stay on and scorch the pot if you forget to unplug it, I've done this once and had to scrub the pot out and the tube with steel wool to get rid of the char which will ruin the taste of your coffee.
Love Nespresso and love that I can purchase on coffeemakers.us.com! Came quickly and works great! Bought the Virtuo with frother combo. Would buy again.
Don’t know how it works. Love the idea but the filter part came in broke. See the pictures. Contacted the company by phone and they said to email them the info. They would take care of it. 4-17-21 still no answer from Vinci and had to email them a second time. 4-20-21 they contacted me and made it right with a new part and some of their cold brew coffee for free The coffee maker works well. Coffee tastes great and it’s so nice to get it quickly. We go through it too fast to wait 12 hours or more. The only thing that we don’t like is that the coffee grounds are hard to get out of the filter because it gets so compacted in the filter due to the brewing process. It makes a mess to get it all out and make another batch.
Great product for the price
I like the color, look like make from durable material but matches together with my house them. Design easily to remove the tray and fill the water in.. this might be a bit tall because it does touch my cabinet. Overall, its good for the $
I have only used it one time and it seems like it's a pretty decent coffee maker. I like that its not all stainless and not only pieces of white with some black....I have been looking for an all white digital good reputation coffee maker for awhile and Kenmore does NOT disappoint
Bought the 'Used' version in 'Very Good' condition for about $68 and it came pretty well packaged with most of it's original packing including a variety of 10 sample pods to try. I've had it for a week and so far it's been a pleasant experience. It works like new and Ihaven't seen any damage or wear. I definitely got my savings worth purchasing a 'used' in 'very good' conditions.
It was a speedy delivery. When I picked the box up out of the chair from my patio you could hear the broken item. I immediately opened the box and found one of the coffee filters were broken.
We use this coffee machine daily and we are really happy with it. Good quality with good price
I ordered two chemex coffeemakers, but the bottom of two chemex are different, any different on them???
Great addition to my kitchen and my coffee addiction 🤣
The press worked fine for the first couple months but after hand washing (no dishwasher) the bronze began to flake off. Not a fan of flaking paint appearing in my sink.
Overall great mini coffee maker (up to 12oz) Packaged really well and instructions are right up top. I like the quality of the maker and it’s not loud while pouring. It comes with a coffee grounds cup to add your own grounds and also comes with a k cup holder which is my personal favorite. It works great. Had my first cup of coffee after my old maker broke over a week ago so was ready. Price definitely matches the durability and quality. So far so good. I was surprised it gave a 2 minute making time so I suppose that’s from start to finish because once the water was poured and It started brewing it was fast and easy within a minute or so. *HEADS UP* I have a lot of camping yeti mugs that will not fit under my only recommendation is making a coffee maker that will fill those to-go cups bigger than the regular coffee mug size!
It's great for the price, just not a heavy duty coffee maker. I love the size, tall but not wide. Fits great on counter top.
