Essenza Mini espresso Machine by De'Longhi, Black

This machine makes coffee better than any cafe. The build is super sturdy and the machine arrived in a very good condition with double carton packaging. This machine extracts the exact flavour notes of the coffee and it tastes super delicious. Super easy to use and doesn’t require much effort to extract the coffee shot. If you are coffee fan and want your coffee to taste a certain way every time you consume it, then this machine is for you. I use nespresso and Starbucks capsule, all of their flavours and their taste are amazing.

Fallen in love with this, love the coffee , easy to use, easy to clean. Only one thing , the coffee is not piping hot, I heat for 5 sec or so in microwave

Wanted to buy an espresso machine for the longest time but hesitated due to my super busy schedule and detailed process of brewing a cup! After months of contemplation and going through several reviews finally I went ahead and bought the Nespresso Essenza Mini and boy oh boy I made the best choice. - super simple to operate and clean - a cuppa ready in under 2 minutes - variety of pods to choose from - compatible with few other good brands - makes my coffee corner look super cool - value for money - compact and cute - had made life simple for a coffee lover like me Go buy it !!

The seller gave used product with scratches, it was not even packed in company box and everything was like second hand. There were only three coffee pods and no welcome gift box. Really disappointed.

I am a coffee aficionado and already have a espresso maker but wanted to try a coffee capsule style machine . The advantage of this is that it is very easy to use and eliminates the coffee grinding adding to filter etc. The coffee pods are easy to use and lasts for a very long time as these are sealed. However the coffee pods which came with the machine was not that good and very bland flavoured. I bought separate starbucks pods which has a much richer flavour and showcased the benefits of using this machine. Obviously there are some downsides, for the convenience you get you have to spend more. Coffee pods are really expensive and are only single use. You can try refilling a coffee pod and reuse but it really doesn’t work well. So though the machine will look reasonable think of the pros of buying coffee pods vs using coffee grounds before buying this machine. Personally I didn’t find there is a lot of difference between coffee from a normal espresso machine and the pod. Obviously this depends on the grounds you are using and type of pods being used.

Super

Pros: Compact - fits in the nook/corner of kitchen or even desk of office. Quick dispensing of espresso/lungo coffee (only with pods) Max 3 lungo cups in one refill of tank. Very good design and build quality, made in Germany. Almost zero mess, just dispose of the pods after 6 cups. Cons: No warranty in India. Tried registering the product on their website with serial number. The seller is importing from Europe and selling in India. Be careful just in case there is any issue within the first year, money is lost. Even one of the three manuals comes only in German.

Even if you are a coffee lover or not... Even if you just like to drink coffee you must go for it. the product is just wow.. My Chai crazy wife has converted in to a coffee lover after this machine has entered our kitchen ... The taste, The aroma ,the freshness.. just wow... Before buying this I was afraid abt customer service .. but even the customer service of the seller is supper awesome... somebuddy plz tell me, Can i give it more than five stars?

Very tiny, works very well good espresso!

This machine is superior to all! More expensive but worth every penney!!!!!! I love this machine Always !!!! Its compact handy, the capsules are easy to insert, cleaning is easy, refilling is easy I absolutely love this machine and the coffee it puts out First Class Job well done Please don't ever change!

I bought this for 2 reasons. My coffee area in my kitchen is too small for a whole big espresso machine with grinding packing and brewing. 2nd reason was the the Vertuo machines are too big AND dont have the variety of different Espresso roasters that the original Nespresso machines have. I adore Illy Classic and Illy Intenso, I love the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Bali Blue Mood pods. The Vertuo System isn't open to lots of other roasters pods. They have their own capsules and Starbucks and thats about it. I wish the tank held a bit more water, but other than that it's a nice machine that pulls regular and lungo shots well with lots of crema. Feels solid and fits in the coffee counter of my kitchen. Easy to set up and use.

The Essenza Mini is top-recommended by Consumer Reports. Our last machine died 2 years after admittedly heavy use (and no, I hadn't descaled until recently). I will take more care with this one. Oddly, it was not available on the Nespresso site itself, but I was able to get it through Amazon. It is small, so you have to refill the water and empty the capsule container often, at least if you have as much coffee as we do!

Been looking for a Nespresso machine for a while, tried a few without success. This is the one. Small, very quiet compare to some I've tried and the coffee taste good. the first time I tried one of them was in Mexico while on vacation, should have gone to this machine first...
