My Mom and Shoppers Agree: This Nespresso Machine Pays for Itself in Just 1 Month

I love an iced pistachio latte, even in the winter, but unfortunately, coffee shop prices quickly add up. After my mom made the recent switch to a new at-home coffee maker and informed me of just how much money she was saving in the process ($100 a month!) I was influenced to buy the same Nespresso Vertuo Plus machine.

The appliance by De’Longhi is such a step up from classic machines thanks to its dual function design. Unlike traditional models, you can whip up a regular cup of coffee, as well as espresso, to recreate your favorite barista-quality recipes right from home. And it’s on sale right now.

Nespresso Vertuo Plus Coffee and Espresso Maker by De’Longhi

The Nespresso Vertuo Plus makes four self-serve sizes: a 5-ounce coffee, an 8-ounce coffee, and single and double espresso, and will quickly brew your choice with a compatible pod. It even allows you to customize the temperature, so you can sip iced and hot lattes depending on your preference. According to my mom, both features create a smooth, rich cup with such a perfect crema on top, she forgets she’s even in her own kitchen. She swears her at-home lattes turn out so well, she doesn’t even miss the coffee shop version.

Using the espresso and coffee maker is simple, too. You insert the pod, select your size with a click of a button, and wait just a few minutes for it to whip up your beverage. There’s such a wide range of compatible drink pods, including a Starbucks collection if you really want to recreate your favorite chain’s beverages.

The machine is lightweight enough that it’s easy to move, and it doesn’t take up too much space on my mom’s countertop. It holds a 40-ounce water tank, so she isn’t constantly having to refill it and it heats up in just 15 seconds.

My mom and I aren’t the only fans of the Nespresso machine. Over 3,300 customers left a five-star rating. One shopper said that it saves them so much money, while another added that they could never go back to drinking regular coffee after using the Vertuo Plus. Others said that it makes drinks that taste better than actual coffee shops and pays for itself within a month.
