Pods are expensive and difficult to get

I would recommend this product, I'm very satisfied with the product, very affordable and fantastic price, I bought it on promotion so I get very cheap price for the amazing coffee machine and 20 pieces capsules. The coffee machine with small size and stunning black colour match with my other stuffs in the kitchen, easy to move and place it.

Bought on offer at £59 and with the free pods you then qualify for this is a steal! Machine is simple to use.

Great little machine. I was torn between this and the Next series but I’m glad I went with this one. The water tank is slightly small which is the only downfall. But easy enough to detach and top up.

Upgraded my old Nespresso (6+years old) for the Pop Magimix model. Really easy to set up and use. Easy to clean and lots of variations of coffee to try. Great for making a morning coffee for the commute and saving my bad habit of buying from the coffee shop. It's is fairly noisy when using, but no louder than my old version, so we don't mind that. You are limited to Nespresso branded pods, which is a shame, but there is a wide variety to purchase. We got the black Pop Magimix and looks great on the kitchen counter. It's very compact and doesn't crowd up the counter which is a bonus. We have signed up to the Nespresso subscription and looking forward to trying some new coffee varieties with the subscription

I’ll be honest the machine wasn’t what I expected, as a latte lover I expect to be putting in a pod and getting a latte, this is more advance than that! The machine does coffee and then you add your own milk, I’m in the process of getting a frother which will make these even better I’m sure. The coffees taste great. So many choices and sizes (we use the double espresso to make a latte). Easy to make in one touch and lovely compact design. The drip tray doesn’t fit under a regular cup but can easily be slid under after you’ve made your coffee. All in all I would definitely recommend! I’ve not put the kettle on since I’ve had it and don’t plan to any time soon!

As someone completely new to coffee machines this has been a brilliant upgrade especially considering the size and price point. I was previously a 'once in the morning' instant coffee (albeit with premium brands) drinker and this changed my habits due to how great the coffee is and how easy it is to use, with myself often tempted to have a decaff later in the day for that great taste without the caffeine kick. With the Aeroccino3 milk frother you also have an expanded number of drink options to choose from, I started off with reversos and mug drunks and am now making lattes and cappuccinos, sometimes with added flavoured syrups or even chocolate as a treat. Friends who've come over have been really impressed by the quality of coffee and are now considering getting their own or for Xmas gifts. Similarly, some others have responded to my Insta stories stating how delicious the coffee looks as well as the cool design of the machine. The Welcome pack of capsules is pretty good and has enough variety to let you decide what you prefer. It's also fairly easy to order more from the website with free next-day delivery if you spend a certain amount. The capsules themselves are made of aluminium and are fully recyclable, though I haven't used up enough to send back so can't comment any further, but it's great that waste is minimal. As great as the Pop is, there are some issues. The temp of the coffee coming out could be a lot hotter, even with the Aeroccino3 heated milk my drinks are just warm, not hot. In addition, although it is easy to use, the feedback/troubleshooting could be a lot better. The first time i tried to use the machine it dribbled a tiny amount of coffee with some residue floating in it. After some fiddling I realised it was because the water tank didn't have a full connection with the machine and needed to pressed with some more force. I would expect the machine to give an error and prevent use until the tank was properly connected, not to proceed with making coffee badly. The machine feedback is general is poor with just the button lighting up to indicate any issues, there is an accompanying app but that has it's own issues (e.g. for me it always shows my Pop as being locked position regardless of what position it's actually in). Lastly, the Vertuo barcode capsule tech is patented so there are no providers other than Nespresso, thus they can charge you whatever they like for your coffee. In summary, great look and design, and incredible coffee.

From opening the box to brewing your first coffee this really is a premium experience! Having a selection box for you to try before you make your first purchase is a great idea! Especially seen as you can only buy the pods from the official store in quantities of 50 at a time and they are not cheap… (this is one reason I would not recommend) The coffee experience it’s self is perfect, freshly brewed coffee with a great taste! The machine is horrendously loud! You definitely cannot make coffee in a small flat without waking everyone else up! There are no settings it is all controlled by the machine, I do like the fact the app gives you warnings, my box was missing the water hardness seating strip, it tells you to pop into store to collect one (my closest one is nearly 250 miles away) The drip tray is completely pointless unless you are using an espresso cup, I cannot use my normal travel cup, because it is to tall, the machine is way too short
