Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love it. Small but powerful and easy to use. Uses the original capsules which are readily available. Get the bundle with the milk frother. It’s wonderful

This is my second one first one i bought for my condo in Florida. Makes awesome espresso and cappuccino. Easy to clean up too.

Two words- AWESOME MINI!! For years I have been wanting to buy an original espresso machine. This little baby does not disappoint. For the casual espresso drinker, it is perfect. Fast and delicious espresso and lungo. Love that there are so many original capsule options from various vendors. Even like to pop in a decaf capsule from time to time while still enjoying a flavorful espresso. Must Buy and Best Buy has some good of the best options on the market.

Tastes and looks beautiful. The quality of the coffee is tremendous, even black with no sugar at all is pleasant to drink.

This machine is amazing, I use it all the time. Thank especially love being able to try new flavors. The milk frother is amazing as well, it senses when the milk is ready and turns off itself. If you’re considering it, just do it. It’s worth it

I absolutely love it . I purchased it for my wife for Christmas and I don’t know who loves it more me or her now . It’s a lot easier to use than I thought . Great price for the quality!

Excellent machine. I would buy again. Doesn’t take up excessive space

If you’re an espresso lover, this is the perfect toy for you!

I couldn’t be happier, excellent product, great bundle value, better deal than directly from manufacturer.

The machine itself brews fast shots with consistent flavor and strength. The milk frother included is consistent with the level of steamed milk and foam. It is easy to use but the pods can be expensive. I would look at Nespresso’s site to see how expensive pods can be (.70-1.40 per) or look at third party pods for cheaper options with great flavor.

Initial disclaimer right off the bat: this review is from people who like coffee shop espresso drinks but aren’t exactly connoisseurs of great espresso. That said, we like the Essenza/Aeroccino system because it provides and easy and straightforward way to enjoy lattes and the like at home, at comparable quality to a coffee shop, and at a lower price. The likes: easy operation, small size on the counter, decent flavor and foam, good frothed milk, good flavor selection, and several great “compatible” off-brand selections (that we actually liked better than the nespresso ones). The dislikes: somewhat confusing/inconsistent operation in getting it turned on and started (my wife commented that she had some challenges getting it to run on a few occasions), tendency to drip after operation (drip pan is necessary but does not fit a large cup above it), frequent burnt layer of milk in bottom of frother (cleans easily, probably par for the course), and the lack of a cup steamer/pre-warmer (we like to put hot water in our cups beforehand to pre-heat them and keep our drinks hot longer). Hope you enjoy!

Easy to use, great coffee every time, little real estate on your counter. auto turn off feature and consistent amount of coffee in your cup. The milk frother gets that perfect foam on your milk drinks. The children used the warm milk during the cold evenings.

I had been looking for an espresso machine to make latte, but they are either too expensive or too bulky. The Mini Essenza was my best purchase ever! The Essenza Mini espresso machine is good quality, stylish, compact and cost effective. I have a small kitchen, so the Essenza Mini is the perfect size for us. My husband and I have been using the Mini Essenza every day to make soy milk or almond milk latte. We have stopped going out to stand in the long line for that expensive cup of latte since July (5 months ago) after purchasing the cute little machine! The Nespresso App is handy when it’s time to replenish the espresso pods. Shipping the used pods back (for recycling) by UPS is free and painless - bravo to Nespresso!!

Great machine. Frother is outstanding. Easy to use and maintain. The gift was for a person visually impaired and they had an easy time figuring out the components and controls. Easy to clean because there is not a lot of excess water being dripped into the two receptacles. Easy to recommend this machine to anyone wh is in the market for an outstanding coffee machine.

This Nespresso machine is great if you have limited space on the counter and a budget. It is a bit noisy, but you can make excellent cappuccinos with it. The milk frother produces just the right creamy texture to top off your cappuccino. I recommend their new flavor, “SCURO”. The flavor will remind you of the last time you were sitting at your favorite trattoria in Florence.

This was a great investment. I originally bought a small real espresso machine for home use because, well, I knew it would make authetic espresso. It wasnt a high end machine but was decently priced enough that I was okay with the learning curve. Alas, no matter how easy it is to use, it ended up sitting collecting dust in my pantry. Fast forward and I decided to lower my standards to only have a machine that makes 100% real espresso. I remembered my coworker had one of these nespresso machines at our old office so I decided to get the newest model. Very happy I made the decision. The espresso it makes is on par with a moka pot so it suffices. There are so many different capsules that Ill never get bored and there is even decaf and Starbucks now, too! The shots are strong, pull quick, and have a decent crema for the what the device is. The frother that comes with the machine is sturdy and nice but I find, compared so a very similar Amazon machine I bought, it makes much less foam at a time. Overall Im very pleased and can honestly say I most likely wont be back to a coffee house for a while!

Bought this for my wife. She wanted drink iced lattes at home without having to out to get it. A previous attempt at home lattes was a failure. Taste is important. She loves the new machine, simple to use. She discovered a blend of 2 different pods from nespresso. Lattes are now made from home! Bliss!

I've owned multiple Nespresso original size capsule machines and love this one (especially with the bundled frother - pro tip - add some syrup to the milk before frothing, you'll be happy you did). Convenient, small, easy to use, great Nespresso coffee. Love it!

This machine has a small foot print. But it makes great expresso. The frother is also great. The quality overall is top drawer. But the pods are much more expensive than they should. 70 to 75 cents each is greedy!

My favorite appliance purchased in years. Every person that has tried this at my house has left wanting to purchase one immediately. Size, efficiency and ease of use make this a desired appliance to have.
