Capsule systems · review
Six Vertuo cup sizes from a 47-ounce repositionable tank, ready in three seconds, with cup size and temperature set from an app.
Where we land on it Ready to brew in three seconds, a 47-ounce tank and temperature control from a phone — the most completely specified Nespresso on this shelf, and a dollar from a Vertuo that takes thirty seconds to do the same thing.
Across the five Nespresso machines on this shelf, this listing publishes the most: a tank, six sizes, a start time, an iced function and app control. The Pixie publishes a shut-off. The Inissia publishes a tray.
It still does not publish a pump pressure or a wattage, and neither does any Nespresso here — while the two cheapest machines on the shelf publish both.
The Vertuo Pop+ by Breville sits a dollar away on this shelf, takes the same capsules, offers the same six sizes, and states thirty seconds.
A ten-fold difference on the one speed figure either machine gives is the single clearest published separation anywhere on this rack, and it costs nothing.
Read on the day this page was built: $160 at the American Amazon shop.
Read from Keepa on the day this page was last revised; stock and price both move without notice.
At $160, it is the 5 cheapest of the 8 models in this category published here.

Both figures are published by Nespresso machines on this shelf, a dollar apart in price and on the same capsule system: this one states ready in three seconds, the Vertuo Pop+ by Breville states a thirty-second heat-up. Nothing in either listing explains the gap, but both makers chose to print their number.
Cup size and temperature, by the listing. Temperature is the interesting one: no other machine on this shelf publishes any temperature control at all, from an app or otherwise.
No. Vertuo and Original are different capsule shapes. Three machines on this shelf take Vertuo, two take Original, and two take several systems including Original — the choice of capsule is the choice that lasts.
These coffee machines share the category and the price bracket. Only what each one states is shown; an incomplete column would mislead.
