The product is indeed value for money. I had the Dolce Gusto first, and now that I got this one, I understand the difference. If someone is hesitant or is in between choices, choose Nespresso, it's worth it. It makes great coffee and I bought it together with the Aeroccino, the best purchase ever for me, as I love cappuccino

It makes the Best coffee in a capsule machine. Because I have had the machine for about a month, I don't have a definite opinion. It heats up in about 10-13sec and you are ready to insert a capsule. It makes a little more noise than expected at the beginning, but gradually decreases after it starts dispensing coffee. It doesn't personally bother me. I have tried Nespresso capsules and ended up with Roma (intensity 8), from Lor to Ristretto (intensity 11), to Dimello intenso (intensity 9). The taste of coffee is very subjective for each person, so while my opinion may help, everyone should try and find their own preferences. With Dimelo and a double capsule, it makes an excellent strong espresso (with two single doses). As for the aeroccino, although I don't use it myself, it makes very good frothed milk, almost perfect according to my wife's words, who has been a Barista for many years in a well-known nationwide Cafe. The test was done for fun with the high pasteurized milk from Lidl (the one that is outside the refrigerator), and it turned out much better than famous brands. In short, my purchase was very honest and it's worth the money, I don't regret it.
I have adjusted the single shot to come out in 9-10sec for Roma, and when I use Lor Ristretto, I adjust it to 15sec. This is due to the fluidity. Roma, which is genuine Nespresso, pierces much easier and the coffee flows much faster than Lor. That's why I found my own taste in these settings. For adjustment, you open the machine normally, insert the capsule, and hold down the button you want to adjust, either for the single shot or the double shot, for as long as you want it to run, and when you release it, it will be set to the seconds you held it. Note that, for example, the 12sec that you like for Lor, if you use a costa coffee, it will not come out with the same composition and may not taste the same. In other words, it requires experimentation to find what you like.
I also combined it with a base/case, but with the 40 capsules, not the 60, as in the link:

Best coffee in a Nespresso capsule machine I have ever tasted, I have had the machine for more than a month and I wouldn't change it for anything. I will also get one for the office at the first opportunity.

Amazing coffee maker, it does its job and more, very high-quality coffee. The noise is okay, like with all coffee makers, but for the few seconds of use, it's not bothersome.

Excellent machine, small, elegant, and with the milk frother. You want it to be somewhere visible, as for the coffee it makes, being nespresso says it all.

Flawless, I have tried capsules from various companies and the coffee was decent. Of course, it's not like the coffee I would get from outside, but it's a very good economical solution. I have also found the aeroccino very convenient because I can easily and quickly heat milk in general, not just for coffee. I haven't tried making cold drinks or cold frothed milk, so I can't comment on those. Ultimately, I don't end up spending money, especially during quarantine, compared to buying from outside since I am constantly at home due to telecommuting and I have the machine available to me at any time, resulting in making three or four coffees daily, whereas if I didn't have the machine, I would have to wait to go outside. However, if I eventually return to work, I will definitely have financial benefits.

I would recommend it as a second espresso machine for someone who already has one that accepts ground coffee. As a second machine, it is good for a quick small coffee. However, in order to taste the coffee from capsules, two are required. There is no comparison with a machine that accepts ground coffee. Anyone who wants quality coffee at home will buy a machine for ground coffee with a grinder or without, and not a machine with capsules. As for the aeroccino, it has moderate capabilities. Overall, it is a decent machine, but only as a supplementary device and not as the main coffee machine.

The coffee maker is very good, fast, and small for those who have space issues. It works perfectly with aluminum capsules. With capsules from another coffee company, it doesn't work as well, but obviously, it's the capsules' fault. The aeroccino makes very nice hot frothed milk, even with light milk (I tried different ones and succeeded with one). I'm not very satisfied with cold frothed milk, but it requires testing with different types of milk. Cleaning the aeroccino is a bit boring.

Flawless machine.
I have been extremely satisfied, especially with the Nespresso and Starbucks capsules. With the Lor and illy ones, while it makes a different sound and takes a little longer to make a cup of coffee.
The biggest surprise was the milk frother.
It is very easy to clean and by the time the machine heats up and dispenses a shot of coffee, the milk is ready too.
I haven't tried barista milk yet, but with store-bought milk, it makes good froth with a good hand mix so that the bubbles go everywhere because otherwise they stay on the surface and it looks like soap.
With light store-bought milk, it leaves a smell in the milk, so it's better to use full-fat or if someone has access to barista milk.
It's really worth it.

It is the third Nespresso machine that we buy because we simply love Nespresso and we have it at the office, at home, and now also in the village. This particular machine is excellent. It is smaller, but in terms of performance and coffee quality, I do not find any difference. It takes up less space on the kitchen counter, it has a slightly smaller water tank, which of course is not a problem because we always prefer to use fresh water. It also holds fewer capsules, but this is not a problem either. Especially if you have a small kitchen and space is precious.

I made the decision in the midst of quarantine to buy this machine along with the aeroccino in order to drink coffee and enjoy... the price was €119 with free shipping and a gift of 14 Nespresso capsules. I believe it is worth its money and more, the coffee is very nice, delicious, very easy to use, and we truly enjoy the coffee. Always to our taste. Also, Nespresso gives you a €30 gift in coffee, which means that the machine comes at a very low price. Definitely worth the purchase.

Six months of use. For coffee at home quickly and easily, it makes a great coffee. The only thing is that it has lost the automatic pause setting, so I have to turn it off myself. The aeroccino for hot frothy milk is very good. I didn't like it for cold milk. I use a hand mixer. I bought another one as a Christmas gift! I bought the first one for 130 with shipping. Now it has a better price! I definitely recommend it!

For a capsule coffee machine, it is very good. The coffee comes out relatively weak compared to a regular espresso machine, but the objective purpose of buying such a machine is not to have the perfect coffee. I have tried it with coffee from various manufacturers and so far the one that suits my taste the most is Illy intenso. The aeroccino gives good frothy milk, but you need to use the spiral and in the hot setting, regardless of what the instructions say. In conclusion, if you are interested in a quick decent espresso without grinding, preheating, cleaning, and of course the cost of buying a regular coffee machine, it is very good. If you are interested in a quick cappuccino, even better. If you are a lover of good coffee, it is not for you, but in any case, in this situation, you would not be looking for a capsule coffee machine and as an entry-level with a grinder, we would easily discuss about 1300 euros. So overall, it is a decent little machine to quickly drink a reasonably decent coffee. I will try it with refillable capsules and coffee that I use in the regular machine, freshly ground on the spot, and I will come back with feedback.

In order to receive the gift with the 70 capsules that it says it's free, you will have to place a second order and have ordered at least one box of coffee capsules.
