My own real criticism is the price this machine is expensive for something that essential boils and pumps water. But it is elegantly designed and has a small footprint and is guaranteed to become a conversation piece in your home or workplace. The second problem is that the pods themselves are expensive and can only be ordered directly from Nespresso. It's easy to create a $100-a-month coffee habit that's hard to justify in this economy, so I went back to my Mr Coffee maker after 3 months of Nespresso addiction.
But if you're in the market for pod-based espresso, I'd recommend this machine.I just bought the bundle of the C100 with the milk frother, and I love it! It is SO easy to use! No mess, no packing grounds, no skill needed, it is so quick and absolutely delicious. Ordering the coffee packs online is super easy and arrives in 2 business days. The machine came with a 12-pack of flavors, and I like every single one of them. One shot of espresso costs $.55 each, so if you are a Starbucks addict like I was, it pays for itself in less than 2 months. I'm so happy that I can make a cappucino or latte anytime I want, at home, in two minutes and not pay $4 for it!

Tried this out (Cadillac unit) in England.... this is the basic unit, but inside the same except it does not froth milk and do all the extra stuff...it is just for espresso (or coffee).... tastes as good as the larger more expensive ones.......I've only had it a few months though and it is making lots of noise sometimes while brewing and is at times can be a little slower than usual...... having said that, overall it is the best out there especially for people who hate the mess of the grounds and cleanup, etc....it is as they say...it taste the same every time as the pods are vac-packed and it is so quick and easy....truly "plug and play".5 stars for the great tasting espresso and ease of use. 1 star for burning out after 2 years no longer in warranty Nespresso offered to sell me a new one as repairing it costs more than replacing it.After bringing our first baby home from the hospital, I thought my husband would appreciate the convinence of having espresso and lattes at home. I wasn't sure if we would like having to use the capsules, but they are so easy to use and order that it doesn't matter at all. It's especially great that there's no messy coffee grounds all over the kitchen! This espresso machine is by far the easiest coffee machine ever. Plus, the finished product tastes great. It's very small so it's easy to keep out on the counter. My husband uses this at least twice a day, and we would recommend it to anyone who wants quick, easy espresso.
