Looking to get hold of a nespresso coffee machine but which one?

I'm a novice when it comes to coffee but the pod system appeals to me.

If its a true Nespresso machine, then I dont think which one will really matter tbh.

We looked at the various machines and tried the coffee from a few too.

Basically, we didn't like the coffee from the Nespresso machines but tried the coffee from an Lavazza Modo Mio machine and loved it, the coffee is extremely good! We ended up buying an AEG model http://www.johnlewis.com/231394948/Product.aspx

Capsules can be bought online or from either Waitrose or John Lewis.

That's my recommendation... Far superior to Nespresso IMO

I have the 'Citiz With Milk' model by Magimix. This is the one with the seperate milk frother if you fancy cappuccinos etc. very happy with it.

I've also got the Citiz with Milk but the Krups one.

I'm a coffee geek and I think the Nespresso products are by far the best out of all the pod machines. For ease of use/quality they are top notch. Yeah they aren't quite as good as grinding your own beans etc. but if you can't be arsed/don't have time then they are ideal.

If you like a cappuccino/latte then get a machine with the milk frother/warmer included like the Citiz and Milk. You can also buy the milk frother/warmer seperate too.

If you want a more portable machine get the Pixie.

We have a DeLonghi nespresso machine which uses pods and its awesome! Decent tasting coffee and quite cheap in my eyes

Snap, And agree on all points. My only problem with it is the milk doesn't get quite hot enough for me.
