Review on Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee and Espresso Maker: Deluxe Matte Black Rose Gold with Aeroccino Milk Frother - A Stylish Companion for Perfect Coffee Experience by Steve Collins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

silt overflow. No rotating water tank. Edited Review

UPDATED: This model has a significant amount of sediment at the bottom of the used pod container which drips from the used pods. My old virtuoso machine didn't have this problem, at the end of each infusion there was a quick spin that drew all the water out of the pods. This machine scoops out water at the end, never dries the pods. EVEN the water tank does NOT rotate. I recently tried placing the virtuoso next to a smaller room and found that there is no way to rotate the water tank. A used pod container is normal, so there is nothing to fix. They claim that the rotating water tank on the Amazon site is a mistake by Amazon, so they won't do anything about it either. I was very dissatisfied with the result, it was a very "buyer beware" experience. OLD REVIEW: This model does exactly the same as the previous model. It requires less rack width but more rack depth. but I suppose it's a bit of idiotic proof. Get what's cheaper when you're ready to buy. The most important thing about owning virtuolins are the pods. They can cost over a dollar each and you can only get stuff from Nespresso (offered on Amazon), we probably use 750 pods a year which makes the cost of the pods a lot higher than the cost of the machine. That makes it a lot more expensive to run than Keurig, but it makes for a much better mug than Keurig (which gobbles like dirty dishwashers after you get used to it).

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
