Good points

Good Points

  • Machine has a movable shelf to accommodate small glasses and reduce height of coffee delivery.
  • Barcode on the Nespresso capsule tells the machine to changes the water volume, temperature etc. which is required for that specific capsule.
  • If the user changes the water volume for their shot, the machine will remember that for each specific capsule type.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Used capsule tray is quite large but its location is between the machine and the water tank. You need to remove the water tank to empty the pods which can be inconvenient.
