What our customer's say!

"when it works....", It's not a bad machine. The coffee when it works tastes great. Nespresso service is excellent, coffee arrives usually next day.

But, getting hot milk out of if has been a challenge, particularly if you live in part of the country that gets hot (if it's hot the milk is likely to be chilled). The best cups I get with 2% milk are generally if the milk has been out of the fridge for at least 1/2 hour, but this usually means that you need to wash the milk container to stop it getting grungy.

You can also run the cleaner button on the milk dispenser to heat up the pipes and heat a cup up with warm water before use.

I'm had mine for 6 months and mine is now not frothing the milk, the output of the milk dispenser has been reduced by 50 percent so it looks like there is a blockage, so I don't know how to fix that.

Sad really because this has the potential to be a really great product. As is, it's meh.

"Loved it until it stopped frothing", This machine was magical for two weeks...and then something in the milk frother broke or got clogged. After numerous calls to nespresso (advice included buying a different brand of milk), Delonghi, and the local Delonghi repair place, we ended up returning it. I understand that Nespresso customer service is supposed to be very helpful, but since this machine is made by Delonghi, they were unable to provide any technical assistance or replacement parts.

While it was working, my only complaint was that the milk did not get hot enough (the cup heater is useless, but if you run hot water into the cups, that helps).

Two stars; one for each week of delicious coffee we drank.

"Beautiful, tasty espresso every time", This machine makes as tasty an espresso as I have ever had, the crema produced each time is consistent and beautiful. It will knock your socks off. Using a milk steaming attachment the machine produces a great looking and tasting cappuccino and latte every time.

Some people seem to gripe about the lack of selection or having to use the "pods" but to me this is an advantage of the machine. The pods must be ordered through Nespresso's website (wish you could buy at the stores, like Sur La Table). The selection of pods is very diverse and are very high quality, the flavors are strong and complex (folgers it aint!) The value of the pods is OK ($.50 ea) and invariably you end up ordering much more coffee than you probably need.

Cleanup is super easy (can't say that about my other espresso machine).

You may ask why not 5 star? There is only one drawback to the machine (besides cost I suppose) and that is the ability to regulate milk temperature. My #1 complaint about the machine is that the milk is not hot enough for my liking. I read the manual and looked at the product website, but as of yet I don't see a way to increase temperature. Generally speaking I like my lattes much hotter than I can prepare with this machine. The espressos are also not quite hot enough to my liking but they taste so good its hard to complain.

For the price I think there should have been a way to steam the milk longer. I am thinking about posting a video of this machine making an espresso because really its a beautiful, tasty espresso every time.

If the milk steaming and Lungo/Latte/Cappuccino functions are not that important and you just want the espresso I would look strongly at this model:
Nespresso C100T Essenza Single-Serve Automatic Espresso Machine, Titan Grey


"delonghi EN680.M", We ordered this from Amazon and received it a week ago. My wife and I are very happy with the machine. It is a great design, easy to use and clean, and makes great coffee. I highly recommend it. It's high priced but much cheaper than similar machines.
