My quest for perfect espresso is finally over!
This review is based on my experience with the Nespresso Essenza C90, but the Nespresso Essenza D90 is quite similar, and the espresso making mechanism is exactly the same.
We all have our little passions. Over the years, I have devoted too much time, money, and study to perfecting the art of making the perfect coffee and espresso. I searched the world (and the internet) for the best beans, grinders, equipment, and even tried roasting my own beans and became able to produce better pot...

OK but has some significant issues
I have been using this machine for about a month now. The espressos are strong, aromatic and comparable to those produced by more expensive machines. The machine is also very easy to clean (barely requiring a rinse every now and then). As far as quality goes I'm very happy with it. A few caveats however:
Temperature: as other reviewers mentioned, they are barely warm. If you're used to sipping yours for more than a couple of minutes you'll be drinking cold coffee. In fact the low tem...

does the trick
the machine takes up little counter space and its use leads to no mess. it doesnt produce the greatest coffee in world but good to decent coffee. it is most convient in that i live alone and want to minimize the amount of effort in making a single cup. of note, this maker depends on capsules made by nespresso and just one day, just maybe, nespresso could stop making the capsules. one cup of coffee costs about $1 and one must spend a minimum total of $50 when placing an order for the capsules.

Nothing tho Fuss About
Nestle, the parent company to Nespresso and the coffee pods, is the worlds largest distributer of coffee, with Nescafe having the greatest world wide brand recognition. Its not like I worry about Nestle and it's coffee drying up and blowing away. I first experienced Nespresso as a guest in a friends home. It was simply the best coffee I ever drank. The machine is ready to dispense in 40 seconds. I turn it on, reach for a cup, make my coffee choice and push the lever. Coffee is in my cup in...

Fabulous espresso!
I like the idea of having a cup of espresso in the afternoon, but my Krups espresso maker was a pain. Messy, hard to use and with marginal results. I decided to look for a high quality coffee maker/espresso maker combination but the salesclerk steered me to the Nespresso and recommended buying this machine and a separate coffee maker (which was less than buying the pricey machine I was considering).
The demonstration won me over. The machine is so easy to use. You touch a button to t...

build quality not as good...
I have bought several exact same model in France when I was living there earlier this year, and the build quality (i.e. fit and finish) are much better. The ones in Europe are made in Switzerland, and the one I recently bought on Amazon is made in China. Not sure why, but the fit and finish just didn't measure up. Otherwise the machine works great. I also would recommend getting the manual vs the automatic version. The manual model lets you control how much water you let pass thru the capsu...

how to have a full mug of coffee from this machine
I have just moved from the UK to the US and had a Nesspresso in the UK (donated to my brother when I moved) and I will be buying my second machine soon. The coffee is delicious, and if you want a full mug, make one or two espresso shots into a mug depending on how strong you like you coffee and add hot water - simple, refreshing coffee. perfect

Good transaction
As it was for a gift and therefore not for a personnal use, the only feedback is : it worked and the delivery was as scheduled. I didn't asked more on that transaction. Everything's fine then.
