Nespresso Vertuo Espresso Machine by Breville Review

If my husband doesn’t have a cup of coffee in the morning, he will inevitably get a headache. His headaches have a bad habit of turning into migraines, which are always followed by abysmal moods, short fuses, and, if possible, long naps. Well aware of the importance of caffeine to the health of our relationship (and my husband’s head), my parents gave us a Nespresso machine for his birthday to ensure he would never be more than a press of a button away from an excellent cup of coffee. Like always, they were right. In the three years we’ve owned ours, it’s earned a spot in his heart alongside our dog.

If you suffer from a similar affliction, this is absolutely the time to remedy it now that his beloved Nespresso Vertuo Espresso Machine by Breville is on sale for Prime Big Deal Days. I like to think of it as a prophylactic measure to safeguard against caffeine-induced headaches and the inevitable bad moods that follow, but you’re more than welcome to think of it as one of the best single-serve coffee and espresso machines money can buy.

There are a ton of Nespresso models to choose from, but my husband loves this one for its ability to brew cups in a range of sizes, including 5- and 8-ounce pours of coffee and single or double espresso shots. He also likes that he doesn’t have to fill the water reservoir too often because it can hold 40 ounces of liquid at a time. But what he appreciates most is the milk frother, and I agree.

I didn’t think I would get much use out of it since I don’t drink a lot of coffee myself, but I was wrong. In her infinite wisdom, my mom sprung for the bundle, which included the Nespresso machine and the brand’s Aeroccino. Being the devoted tea lover that I am, I use the frother almost daily to concoct tasty (if lacking in fancy milk designs) matcha and hojicha lattes to satiate my morning caffeine cravings.

We’re not alone in our awe. One Amazon shopper out of the more than 12,600 who “highly recommend” this Nespresso machine called it “easy to clean and simple to use.” Another wrote that it’s a “game-changer for coffee enthusiasts” and added that it’s a “fantastic choice for anyone who values convenience without sacrificing quality.”

Neither I nor my husband could have said it better ourselves. For excellent coffee at an affordable price, shop the Nespresso Vertuo Espresso Machine and Aeroccino while it’s on sale for October Prime Day.
